Light in Darkness

Midnight in Bethlehem, stars did the speaking No crown, no throne, just a promise and breathing They thought power was muscle, swords, and control God came wrapped in flesh with a mission for souls Born in the manger, no chains on His name King of the cosmos, still walked through the pain Halo in shadow, He stood in the flame Christmas ain’t gifts, it’s the breaking of chains Yeah Light in the dark, He was paving the way From the cradle to cross, never ran from the weight If you lost, if you hurting, if stuck in the maze That child in the straw came to ransom the pain Verse 1 Lowly beginnings, divinity hidden Infinite wisdom inside of a infant They missed Him, He blended with sinners and fishermen He didn’t need riches to show you what rich is Carpenter hands with the blueprint of galaxies Spoke in parables, shattered the fallacies Rome had the power but Christ had the strategy Love as a weapon? That’s radical, actually Fled from the tyrant, they hunted His life Refugee baby under moonlight Angels on payroll? Nah—choirs in the sky Prophesy written, the ink was divine Every step measured, He knew what it cost Still chose the nails, still chose the cross If God is with us, then who could be loss? Christmas remind us what hope really bought Hook Born in the manger, no chains on His name King of the cosmos, still walked through the pain Halo in shadow, He stood in the flame Christmas ain’t gifts, it’s the breaking of chains Yeah Light in the dark, He was paving the way From the cradle to cross, never ran from the weight If you lost, if you hurting, if stuck in the maze That child in the straw came to ransom the pain Verse Uh— No intimidation, domination through love No assassination, salvation from above They want a warrior swinging a blade God sent a lamb, let Him bleed for the stains Uh— Demons was trembling, scribes was offended Pharisees mad ‘cause He broke the traditions Flipped the whole system, no glitch, no amendment Grace over law, but the truth was relentless Sick got healed, blind got vision Dead folks walked, that’s God-level business Turned water wine, that was joy with precision He fed the whole block with a blessing He split in Uh— Mocked by the crowd, still prayed for the haters “Father forgive ‘em,” He broke every shackle If death is a door, then He kicked it to splinters Rose on the third, now the grave need a casket Bridge No room in the inn, but room in my soul No silver, no gold, still paid what I owed If heaven came down in the form of a child Then love ain’t loud—it’s humble and wild hook Born in the manger, the King still reign History split when He stepped in the frame From Bethlehem nights to the blood and the rain Christmas is Christ, let ‘em never erase Yeah Lift every burden, break every yoke Hope for the broken, peace for the ghosts If God put on flesh just to pull us up close Then I’m giving Him praise ‘til I’m out of my bones
