Nothing But a Child

Once upon a time in a far off land
 Wise men saw a sign and set out across the sand
 ♪
 Songs of praise to sing, they traveled day and night
 And precious gifts to bring, 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
 And this miracle they prized was nothing but a child
 Nothing but a child could wash those tears away
 Or guide a weary world into the light of day
 And 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 Iittle 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
 Nothing but a child could wash those tears away
 Or guide a weary world into the light of day
 And nothing but a child could help erase those miles
 So once again we all can be children for a while
