A Night in Silent Wait

By

Cherish Michelle Hamilton

For Grandmother

Tonight we sit in silent wait

For a Baby that ‘twas born to save.

A Savior born in manger lay

Emmanuel 'tis His Name.

Redemption come for all to know

The LOVE of ABBA that ‘twas long foretold.

A Baby born in lowly state

In which the hope of all men lay.

His name 'tis Jesus, Messiah, Redeemer, God

Who gave up everything to know us, save us, and dwell in us.

A Baby born to suffer and to die

Sent to Redeem both you and I.

So as we sit in silent wait for this Baby that ‘twas sent to save

You must decide this very night what you’ll do with this Baby sent to die.

His sacrifice was for your life,

So the question ‘tis this, what will you do with His gift?

Will you receive the gift He gave and sit in silent wait to know Him everyday.
