Story behind the song
On this trackyou are most blessed to be listening to Patrick Mulhern’s moving rendition of this unusual Christmas song. All too rarely do we get a chance to hear from Joseph in the Christmas story. I’m certain songwriter, Michael Card captured Joseph’s awe and wonder in this beautiful bit of music and Patrick has brought it to life. More on the wonderful Pat Mulhern at (patrickmulhern.com)
Lyrics
Joseph’s Song How could it be, this baby in my arms Sleeping now so peacefully The Son of God, the angel said. How could it be? Lord, I know He’s not my own Not of my flesh, not of my bone Still Father let this baby be The Son of my love. Father, show me where I fit into this plan of yours How can a man be father to the Son of God? Lord for all my life I’ve been a simple carpenter How can I raise a King; how can I raise a King? He looks so small; his face and hands so fair And when he cries the sun just seems to disappear But when he laughs, it shines again. How could it be? Father, show me where I fit into this plan of yours How can a man be father to the Son of God Lord, for all my life I’ve been a simple carpenter How can I raise a King; how can I raise a King? How could it be, this baby in my arms Sleeping now so peacefully, the Son of God, the angel said. How could it be?
