The Infinite held within her womb – v2

A treasure of endless value
A gift sublime
The child growing
In her body appearing
The infinite held, the Christ,
Within the vessel of her womb
A bit of clay, a pearl
In God’s time revealing
Immanuel, Messiah
The One, the Christ
God’s gift, in mercy
Humbly giving
A path for our healing
Christ come down,
As a babe in her body
Nurtured, growing
In the fullness of time
Alive, with us, God here on earth,
In the skin of our clay
Walking with us
Embodying God’s grace
