The Silent Word

 

 

Who'd have believed such a story? The God of infinite Glory

 

Came as a newborn, frail and weak, helpless and even unable to speak...

 

What manner of Child is this, whose praises from angels are heard?

 

What manner of Child is this? He is the sacred silent word.

 

The word made flesh is to be hailed as our chance for new birth

 

His incarnation celebration overwhelms this earth.

 

So the silent word still pleads for you, He can be your fresh start.

 

Proclaim the Glory of your Christ, enthrone him in you heart.
