Born Where the Shadows Lie
by Kristyn Getty

Album: New Irish Hymns 3 - Incarnation

Born where the shadows lie
To answer every cry of man,
This child who formed all life
Now breathes our breath.
Born where the Father loved,
Born helpless to a mother's arms,
She smoothed the tears upon
The face of God.
Born now with man to dwell,
Our Lord Immanuel,
Come see the King, the Christ Child born to us.
Born now with man to dwell,
Our Lord Immanuel,
My soul can finally know the God of Heaven.
Born with a road ahead,
Alone these blameless feet would tread
The path God chose to walk,
Before all time.
Born holding life and death,
Born bearing heaven's wealth of peace
That fills where none can fill
Our living stream.
