to dwell in the arms of a girl – v2


in the flesh of a baby
to dwell in the arms of a young girl
vulnerable, mortal, of this earth,
how Christ came into the world

God, almighty, eternal
the ruler of all, the universe
entered in to dwell with us
as the teenager’s son

in the flesh of a man
here on this earth
giving his life for all mankind
living here with us
