Like a child, Jesus comes.

This is one of my very favorite advent songs.  It reminds me that Jesus came to us as a child, runny nose, dirty feet and sticky hands.

Like a ChildDaniel Charles Damon

Like a child love would send to reveal and to mend,

 Like a child and a friend, Jesus comes.

 
Like a child we may find claiming heart, soul, and mind

 
Like a child strong and kind, Jesus comes

Like a child we will meet, ragged clothes, dirty feet,

 
Like a child on the street, Jesus comes.

 
Like a child we once knew,  Coming back into view,

 
Like a child born anew, Jesus comes.


Like a child born to pray and to show us the way,

 Like a child here to stay, Jesus comes.

 
Like a child we receive,  All that love can conceive,

 
Like a child we believe, Jesus comes.
