Welcome to Our World


Words fail me. I have nothing to say about the events of last Friday that hasn't already been said. As we drove home last night in the rain after celebrating the fifteenth birthday of our twin boys, I remembered that in another corner of the country, two other boys were being mourned and buried. Noah Pozner and Jack Pinto, both age six were laid to rest and welcomed into heaven. And now, perhaps more than ever before, I am mindful of how very much we needed that baby boy in the manger. This Chris Rice song came on the radio as we drove home and says more than I could hope to say.

Tears are falling, hearts are breaking
How we need to hear from God
You've been promised, we've been waiting

Welcome, Holy Child
Welcome, Holy Child

Hope that you don't mind our manger
How I wish we would have known
But long-awaited Holy Stranger
Make Yourself at home
Please make yourself at home
Bring Your peace into our violence
Bid our hungry souls be filled
Word now breaking Heaven's silence

Welcome to our world
Welcome to our world

Fragile finger sent to heal us
Tender brow prepared for thorn
Tiny heart whose blood will save us
Unto us is born
Unto us is born

So wrap our injured flesh around You
Breathe our air and walk our sod
Rob our sin and make us holy
Perfect Son of God
Perfect Son of God
Welcome to our world
