But you, O Bethlehem Ephrathah,
    are only a small village among all the people of Judah.
Yet a ruler of Israel,
    whose origins are in the distant past,
    will come from you on my behalf.
_{Micah 5:2 NLT}

Only a humble small baby
revealing the hearts of all men
igniting in those who would follow
goodness and beauty within.
Infant king sleeps in a manger
new star hangs in the sky
sing shepherds and angels a babe’s sweet lullaby.

Then Simeon blessed them, and he said to Mary, the baby’s mother, “This child is destined to cause many in Israel to fall, and many others to rise. He has been sent as a sign from God, but many will oppose him. As a result, the deepest thoughts of many hearts will be revealed. And a sword will pierce your very soul.”
_{Luke 2:34-35 NLT}
