He silences all greatness

 The big star was shining and pointing the way

To a Baby in a Manger .. the True Star of the day

The wise men came seeking .. from far and from wide

An Astrological promise that couldn't be denied

So they see Him this Baby in a lodging so low

That..only the animals ....were the first ones to know

That He is their Creator.. and the God of all time

He silences all greatness and crosses each line..

The shepherds were watching as the wise man approached

Carrying their treasures like the costliest gold

Dressed up in their attire of finest new threads

These kings... came there.. looking ..like they were there to impress

So they see Him this Baby in a lodging so low

That ..only the animals... were the first ones to know

That He is their Creator.. and the God of all time

He silences all greatness and crosses each line.

The great ones look puzzled as they took in this poor sight

The promised One they searched for ..in dimly lit light

No colorful emblems that would mark Him the King

This Baby, they were viewing.. didn't look like "anything" 

So they see Him this Baby in a lodging so low

That ..only the animals... were the first ones to know

That He is their Creator.. and the God of all time

He silences all greatness and crosses each line.

Though disillusioned and puzzled these great ones would leave

Knowing interiorly  what they should come  to believe.

That ..this baby.. so gentle ...so meekly displayed

Was the talk of the century and Heaven's true way

So they see Him this Baby in a lodging so low

That...only the animals... were the first ones to know

That He is their Creator.. and the God of all time

He silences all greatness and crosses each line.
