What's Come to Pass
Though promised in the Garden — the world is still surprised;
though generations waited — he first meets those despised.
Four hundred years of silence is broken with a cry;
gone — centuries of darkness, when angels fill the sky.
Designer of the cosmos — his splendors never dim;
his stars ignite the heavens — a lone star points to him.
The tiny baby wakens to little lambs that bleat;
the Lamb of God is worshipped by shepherds at his feet.
The one with no beginning — arrives by virgin birth;
creator of creation — has come to save the earth.
The one who owns the cattle upon a thousand hills,
is sleeping in the manger, amid the noise and filth.
A threat to earthly kingdoms — yet strangers seek him out;
though prophesied for ages — his birth leaves some with doubt.
He'll cure so many people, walk on the Sea like glass;
to God, be all the glory! Let's see what's come to pass.

So it was, when the angels had gone away from them into heaven, that the shepherds said to one another, “Let us now go to Bethlehem and see this thing that has come to pass, which the Lord has made known to us.”
