Mary held her baby
Tightly in her arms
She laid him in a manger
Safely from all harm

Joseph held his baby
Tightly in his arms
The Savior from our sins
Safely from all harm

The angel told them both
Who this babe would be
Messiah of all nations
To set the captive free

Shepherds came to greet Him
Safe in Mary’s arms
They knew this babe was special
They heard the angels’ song

Wise men came from far away
Following a star
They came to see this Holy Child
Safe in Marys’ arms

Today we come before Him
And He holds out His arms
He gives salvation freely
He saves us from all harm

His peace is for the taking
His joy will sooth and calm
If we will only settle
Safely in His arms
