Fr. Bill’s CD Lyrics

Blanket of Stars: Love’s Incarnation

From your heavenly throne
To a Virgin’s womb
From a God who saves
To the inn with no room
World in silence can’t hear
The heavens’ ovation
You came, love’s incarnation
Jesus, love’s incarnation

From a census called
To old Bethlehem town
From a hope near-lost
To a simple stable found
No mere words can describe
That God-is-near sensation
Love’s incarnation
Jesus, love’s incarnation

From the prophet’s cry
To God’s people, His delight
From the angels’ song
To the shepherds in the night
All are gifts from God’s hand
Our cause for jubilation
Came through love’s incarnation
Jesus, love’s incarnation

To un-wrap this gift
From our God’s eternal plan
To remain here present
From our falls he helps us stand
Takes God’s mercy to bring
Our hate and sin’s cessation
Love’s incarnation
Jesus, love’s incarnation

From the spirit’s power
To transform mere bread and wine
From His sacrifice
To real presence, living sign
On the altar He’s born
At each holy celebration
Of love’s incarnation
Jesus, love’s incarnation
