Cry Of A Tiny Baby - Bruce Cockburn[00:00:00]

Mary grows a child without the help of a man[00:00:23]

Joseph get upset because he doesn't understand[00:00:35]

Angel comes to Joseph in a powerful dream[00:00:46]

Says "God did this and you're part of his scheme"[00:00:52]

Joseph comes to Mary with his hat in his hand[00:01:09]

Says "forgive me I thought you'd been with some other man"[00:01:20]

She says "what if I had been - but I wasn't anyway and guess what[00:01:32]

I felt the baby kick today"[00:01:39]

Like a stone on the surface of a still river[00:01:55]

Driving the ripples on forever[00:02:02]

Redemption rips through the surface of time[00:02:07]

In the cry of a tiny babe[00:02:12]

The child is born in the fullness of time[00:02:27]

Three wise astrologers take note of the signs[00:02:39]

Come to pay their respects to the fragile little king[00:02:50]

Get pretty close to wrecking everything[00:02:56]

'Cause the governing body of the whole [Holy[00:03:12]

Is that of Herod a paranoid man[00:03:25]

Who when he hears there's a baby born King of the Jews[00:03:35]

Sends death squads to kill all male children under two[00:03:42]

But that same bright angel warns the parents in a dream[00:03:59]

And they head out for the border and get away clean[00:04:05]

Like a stone on the surface of a still river[00:04:22]

Driving the ripples on forever[00:04:29]

Redemption rips through the surface of time[00:04:34]

In the cry of a tiny babe[00:04:39]

There are others who know about this miracle birth[00:04:53]

The humblest of people catch a glimpse of their worth[00:05:05]

For it isn't to the palace that the Christ child comes[00:05:16]

But to shepherds and street people hookers and bums[00:05:22]

And the message is clear if you've got [you have[00:05:39]

That forgiveness is given for your guilt and your fear[00:05:51]

It's a Christmas gift [that[00:06:02]

There's a future shining in a baby's eyes[00:06:08]

Like a stone on the surface of a still river[00:06:25]

Driving the ripples on forever[00:06:32]

Redemption rips through the surface of time[00:06:37]

In the cry of a tiny babe[00:06:42]

Like a stone on the surface of a still river[00:06:51]

Driving the ripples on forever[00:06:58]

Redemption rips through the surface of time[00:07:03]

In the cry of a tiny babe[00:07:08]
