Michael Card - What Her Heart Remembered lyrics

Out in the stable yard She sees a glow Could it be angel light? How would she know? Shepherds stand wondering Afraid to come in But the baby that's born tonight Will free them all To never fear again As He lies in a cattle trough She kneels by His side Sweet baby breathing Soft infant sighs Soft sounds of swallowing As soft fingers part Marvelous memories She pondered then and hid them in her heart Like a good Mother would Sh learned His cries If He'd awake With a bellyache From hunger or fright But now and then Sometimes when The dark would descend He would weep A dark so deep For all her love She couldn't comprehend (repeat) Her warm loving carpenter His strong gentle hands His dark and bewildered eyes Can they understand? That this Baby she's given him Is theirs for a time In truth came to give Himself The Treasure and the Ransom of mankind
