Still Her Little Child

Nog Steeds Haar Kleine Kind

Still Her Little Child

Toen ze Hem in de voederbak legdeWhen she laid him in a manger
Was Hij nog steeds haar kleine kindHe was still her little child
In een stad vol vreemdenIn a city filled with strangers
Was Hij nog steeds haar kleine kindHe was still her little child
Hoewel de herberg vol wasThough the inn was full
En de nacht koud wasAnd the night was cold
Hield ze Hem dicht bij zich en glimlachteShe held Him close and smiled
Toen ze Hem in de voederbak legdeWhen she laid Him in a manger
Was Hij nog steeds haar kleine kindHe was still her little child

Toen de engelen Hem Redder noemdenWhen the angels called Him Savior
Was Hij nog steeds haar kleine kindHe was still her little child
Toen de wijzen Hem schatten gavenWhen the wise men gave Him treasures
Was Hij nog steeds haar kleine kindHe was still her little child
Toen de herders voor Hem bogenWhen the shepherds bowed before Him
Scheen er een ster de hele tijdA star shone all the while
Toen de engelen Hem Redder noemdenWhen the angels called Him Savior
Was Hij nog steeds haar kleine kindHe was still her little child

Toen Hij groeide in kracht en wijsheidWhen He grew in strength and wisdom
Was Hij nog steeds haar kleine kindHe was still her little child
Toen Hij sprak, luisterden de mensenWhen He spoke the people listened
Was Hij nog steeds haar kleine kindHe was still her little child
Toen Hij de lamme en stervende genasWhen He healed the lame and dying
Volgden ze Hem kilometers verThey would follow Him for miles
En toen Hij groeideAnd when he grew
In kracht en wijsheidIn strength and wisdom
Was Hij nog steeds haar kleine kindHe was still her little child

Toen de mensen zich tegen Hem keerdenWhen the people turned against Him
Was Hij nog steeds haar kleine kindHe was still her little child
Toen ze schreeuwden kruisig HemWhen they shouted crucify Him
Was Hij nog steeds haar kleine kindHe was still her little child
En toen ze Hem spijkerdenAnd when they nailed Him
Aan een houten kruisTo a wooden cross
Toen waren we verzoendThen we were reconciled
Toen ze Zijn gebroken lichaam vasthieldWhen she held His broken body
Was Hij nog steeds haar kleine kindHe was still her little child
Hij was nog steeds haar kleine kindHe was still her little child
