Love Has Brought Him Here

In the crowded streets of this desert town

I've heard the rumor going 'round

But it doesn't seem the time or place

For a Savior child to bring His grace

There's too much trouble, greed and tears

Who could greet Him conscience clear?

And who among us would believe

Till the trumpets sound His song

That the Promised One has come?

Then a star came out and the cattle lowed

And the street turned bright with a manger's glow

I thought I heard the message clear

That love has brought Him here

Who are these people, peasant poor

Who sit inside the stable door?

Where is the sense in such a choice?

What have we waited for?

Seems a King should have much more

Then the star turned bright and the mother smiled

At this gift of life, her precious child

I saw right then the message clear

That love has brought Him here

Then the star came out and the cattle lowed

And the street shone bright with a manger's glow

And this whole world will one day know

The love that's brought Him here

The love that's brought Him here

The love that's brought Him here
