Baby King, born to love

Is crowning the world with love, Holy love

Setting baby feet upon rock – solid, gentle and strong

Dazzling Son, radiating light

Blasting darkness into its own abyss – for it has nowhere else to go

Loving baby eyes, filled with redeeming and saving beauty,

Gaze on us – too beautiful for our damaged world

But with perfection, to cast out fear –

And to heal and to love and to love and to love…

And so, to restore

Shine, bright Son of God!

Illuminate sin and destroy its curse!

Loving baby arms, held by our loving Mother

Reach out to broken lives and broken hearts.

Hug us, baby King and, so, reign in us.

We all need You – just the touch of Your gentle baby hands to heal;

And Your warmth, to comfort and Your compassion to make whole…

We then, return to You as Love

So, King Jesus, innocent and pure – purify us;

Love us into eternal life with You!

Raise the rooftops of the Earth with shouts of joy!

Come, Holy King, come!

Blessed Babe, let our baby hearts rejoice in the arms of Your unchanging Love

Yes! You are smiling and looking at us with amazing delight…

For You, our God, are Love…perfect Love and perfect Truth. Amen.
