Waiting each day by the temple doors
Looking for the one who's to come
One who was promised long ago
God's only Son
To see him with my own failing eyes
Is my only desire before I die
Could this be the Saviour, coming as a child
Beautiful Creator, resting in my arms
Could this be the Saviour, coming as a child
Beautiful Creator, resting in my arms
In my old age I've waited long
Waited for the Promised One
Sleepless I have pondered long
Listening for the Messiah's call
But I know this hour of seeing him face to face
All the sorrow in a way will be erased
Could this be the Saviour, coming as a child
Beautiful Creator, resting in my arms
Could this be the Saviour, coming as a child
Beautiful Creator, resting in my arms
Now let your servant depart in peace
For I've seen the coming of the Lord
The consolation of the whole Earth
The light of the world
(Oooh)
Could this be the Saviour, coming as a child
Beautiful Creator, resting in my arms
Could this be the Saviour, coming as a child
Beautiful Creator, resting in my arms
