He was a loving father
Gentle master of his home
But all alone against their love for God
No Savior of his own
Unmoved and softly cynical
Of those he thought naive
God come to earth a virgin birth
No how could anybody believe

Chorus:

Oh but simple creatures
Seldom comprehend the ways of man
And sometimes love expressed
Is met with doubt and fear
Uh huh He thought
If I could only fly among you
I know I could make you understand
Just for one moment walk beside you
I know it would all be clear
It would all be clear

His Christmas evening solitaire
Beside the fire's glow
Out the window tiny sparrows
In the spell of the chilling snow
And moved with deep compassion
With a redeeming plan he rose
And he tried in vain to gather them
To a shelter from the killing winter cold

And even before the thought
Had left his mind
Christmas bells from far away
Reminded him of simple truth
He'd denied until that very day
How Jesus born the Savior
Walked this earth with mortal man
Uh huh another soul brought safely home
And Christmas would never be the same again
