The center of the ages, the Lord talks with a girl.
And by the words He speaks, He gives a Savior to the world.
The time grows to its fullness, and Mary's son is born.
The promise's fulfillment lies asleep now in her arms.
He didn't come to terrify, to judge or condescend.
To call us all His servants, but to lift us as His friends.
To save us all from Satan's power, to reign at His right hand.
For once for all eternity, God became man.
Today the God of majesty is given to the earth.
A gift of such magnificence we can never plumb its worth.
And the rudeness of the setting just ignites the jewel's fire.
A pearl beyond the greatest price, the joy of man's desire.
