Behold!

Behold the babe in the manger,

The creator of the world!

Behold the mother crying.

Behold the virgin’s song.

Behold your own lips lying

Behold the truth now found.

“Behold, I make all things new.”

Behold the father’s leaving.

Behold the father’s love.

Behold the young men dying,

Behold the lives they save.

“Behold, I make all things new.”

Behold the sheep for slaughter

Behold the sling shot’s hand.

Behold the Sheppard’s running.

Behold the peace they found.

“Behold, I make all things new.”

Behold the star of Bethlehem.

Behold the wise men’s march.

Behold the greed of rich men

Behold the treasured gifts.

“Behold, I make all things new.”

Behold this world at war.

Behold the strife within you.

Behold a cruel cross.

Behold the risen sunrise.

“Behold, I make all things new.”

Behold the cold and darkness,

New life and light have come.

Behold the bitter hatred,

Behold your new found heart.

“Behold, I make all things new.”

Behold the graves of loved ones.

Behold your pain and loss.

Behold the empty gravesite.

See heaven by your side.

“Behold, I make all things new.”

Behold the rages of the storm.

Behold his gentle hand.

Behold his heart of love

Be warmed and loved tonight.

“Behold, I make all things new.”

Pray for eyes to see.

“Behold, I make all things new.”
