Since the day the angel came - Thorns in the Straw

Since the day the angel came (Thorns in the Straw) Performed by Lizzie Hasnip for York West Methodist Churches. 1 Since the day the angel came it seemed that everything had changed. The only certain thing was the child that moved within on the road that would not end, winding down to Bethlehem, so far away from home. 2 Just a blanket on the floor of a vacant cattle stall, but there the child was born. She held Him in her arms and as she laid Him down to sleep, she wondered, will it always be so bitter and so sweet? And did she see there in the straw by His head a thorn, and did she smell myrrh in the air on that starry night? And did she hear angels sing not so far away, 'til at last the sun rose blood-red in the morning sky? 3 Then the words of ancient seers tumbled down the centuries a virgin shall conceive, God with us, Prince of Peace. Man of sorrows strangest name. Oh Joseph, there it comes again, so bitter, yet so sweet. Chorus 4 And as she watched Him through the years, her joy was mingled with her tears, and she'd feel it all again, the glory and the shame, And when the miracles began she wondered, 'Who is this man, and where will this all end?' 5 'Til, against a darkening sky, the one she loved was lifted high, and with His dying breath she heard Him say, 'Father, forgive!' and to the criminal beside, 'Today — with me, in Paradise.' So, bitter, yet so sweet. Chorus Graham Kendrick (born 1950) © 1994 Make Way Music 7 7 6 7 7 7 6 and refrain Feel free to use , where you have the relevant copyright clearances to do so.
