Nothing but a Child

Once upon a time In a far off land Wise men saw a sign And set out 'cross the sand Songs of praise to sing They traveled day and night Precious gifts to bring They were guided by the light They chased a brand new star Ever towards the West Across the mountains far But when it came to rest They scarce believed their eyes They'd come so many miles The miracles they prized Was nothing but a child Chorus: Nothing but a child Could wash those tears away Or guide a weary world Into the light of day Nothing but a child Could help erase those miles So once again we all can be children for a while Now all around the world In every little town Every day is heard A precious little sound And every mother, kind And every father, proud Looks down in awe to find another chance allowed (Repeat Chorus) Nothing but a little baby Nothing but a little baby Nothing but a child
