Little Baby Jesus

Little baby Jesus,
so soft and so sweet
one day would have nails
pounded into His feet.

Tightly swaddled now,
in His mother's loving arms
one day He would wear
a crown of prickly thorns.

Small cooing sounds,
He now softly sighs
one day to His Father
He'll moan forsaken cries.

Wise Men bring to Him,
gifts meant for a King
one day to a cross
His life will painfully cling.

Little baby Jesus,
so soft and so sweet
came into the world
so Satan He could defeat.

Luke 2:11
King James Version

"For unto you is born this day in the
city of David a Saviour, which is Christ
the Lord"

Luke 23:21
King James Version

" But they cried, saying, Crucify him,
crucify him."
