- The Voice Of The Child Lyrics / with translationsMichael Card
I am an old rabbi
Where's the Child who was here only yesterday
How my heart started to beat as I sat at His feet
For the things He'd say
The questions I asked Him
Had weighed on my mind an eternity
But the self-righteous show
I had made my disguise
It started to slip as I looked in His eyes
So rather than stay, for my pride's sake
I walked away
Chorus
Come listen awhile to the voice of the Child
Stand in awe of the wisdom of God
Hear what He has to say
For the time is today
You can come or just walk away
Then late in the night I awoke to a voice
Deep inside of me
It was gentle and mild like the voice of a child
My mind's eye could see
It spoke of the promises
Made to my people through Abraham
And at once all the prophecies made sense to me
I'd studied them so long
Why couldn't I see
In one holy moment I knew the Messiah was He
Repeat Chorus
I am an old rabbi
Where's the Child who was here only yesterday
How my heart started to beat as I sat at His feet
For the things He'd say
I've just got to find him
and tell him I'm sorry I walked away
I am an old rabbi
Where's the Child who was here only yesterday
How my heart started to beat as I sat at His feet
For the things He'd say
The questions I asked Him
Had weighed on my mind an eternity
But the self-righteous show
I had made my disguise
It started to slip as I looked in His eyes
So rather than stay, for my pride's sake
I walked away
Chorus
Come listen awhile to the voice of the Child
Stand in awe of the wisdom of God
Hear what He has to say
For the time is today
You can come or just walk away
Then late in the night I awoke to a voice
It was gentle and mild like the voice of a child
My mind's eye could see
It spoke of the promises
Made to my people through Abraham
And at once all the prophecies made sense to me
I'd studied them so long
Why couldn't I see
In one holy moment I knew the Messiah was He
Repeat Chorus
I am an old rabbi
Where's the Child who was here only yesterday
How my heart started to beat as I sat at His feet
For the things He'd say
I've just got to find him
and tell him I'm sorry I walked away
