Would We Have Known the Messiah – v2

In that babe in the manger
the infant Jesus
would we have known the Messiah
the Savior of the world

Would our eyes have been open
kneeling before him
would we have brought him gifts
worthy of a King

In the man on the cross
the one who preached at Capernaum
would we have known the Messiah
the Savior of the world

Would our eyes have been open
falling at the foot of the cross
would we have offered him our lives
a gift worthy of our King
