this baby would one day save me...

"For God so loved the world that he gave
his one and only Son... " - John 3:16

I Celebrate the Day, Relient K.

And with this Christmas wish is missed
the point I could convey.
If only I could find the words to say to let You know
how much You've touched my life,
because here is where You're finding me,
in the exact same place as New Year's Eve.
And from a lack of my persistency,
we're less than half as close as I want to be.

And the first time that You opened Your eyes,
did you realize that You would be my Savior.
And the first breath that left Your lips,
did You know that it would change this world forever.

And so this Christmas I'll compare
the things I felt in prior years
to what this midnight made so clear
that You have come to meet me here.

To look back and think that
this baby would one day save me.
In the hope that what you did
that you were born so that I might live.
To look back and think that
this baby would one day save me.

And the first time that You opened Your eyes,
did you realize that You would be my Savior.
And the first breath that left Your lips,
did You know that it would change this world forever.

And I, I celebrate the day that You were born to die,
so I could one day pray for You to save my life.
Pray for You to save my life.
Pray for You to save my life.
