What did it feel like
When Your Son took His first steps on the earth You made?
When You watched Him from up in Heaven
Did You feel close and yet far away?
Though You were with Him, did You feel distant?
Did You want it to feel that way for a reason?
Did You teach Him the reason You would say
He's ours
A baby born to save us
Yeah, He's ours
Oh, I'm awe struck as I think of
Way back before we
Ever called it "The incarnate birth"
He was Yours first
He was Yours first
What did it sound like
When Your son spoke His first one-year-old words?
Did You smile
As the angels swooned over what He called You?
Though You were with Him,
Did You feel distant when He first cried out Your name?
As He grew older, You must have shown Him
Love's the reason You would say
He's ours
A baby born to save us
Yeah, He's ours
Oh, I'm awe struck as I think of
Way back before we
Ever called it "The incarnate birth"
He was Yours first
He was Yours first
What did it feel like
When Your Son cried in the manger late at night?
Did You want to come and break through
The clouds and make it alright?
What did it feel like
When Your Son chose to take a cross once marked as mine?
Did You want to come and break through
The clouds and make it alright?
Cuz He was Yours first
Jesus was Yours first
