When you look in the manger, what do you see?
When you look upon the Child, can you see eternity?
Can you see a Man there Who died at Calvary?
Tell me what…what do you see?
Can you see the small Child …. wrapped up and warm?
But do you see the back that was tattered and torn?
And can you see all the sin placed on Him for me?
Tell me what…what do you see?
Can you see the Christ child, God’s Lamb on the hay?
Can you see Him coming back as a Lion someday?
Can you see Him hanging there, nailed to the tree?
Tell me what…what do you see?
Musical bridge
Oh, look once again ‘cause I want you to see,
God gave us His Son to save you and me!
And He came anyway, though the world knew Him not
And died on the cross, by His blood we are bought.
Can you see the crown of thorns there on His head?
Can you see Jesus Christ raised from the dead?
Can you see all men bow, praising the King?
Can you see Him at the throne? Do you see angels sing?
Can you see peace on earth, goodwill to all man?
Can you see the Lord God and salvation’s plan?
Can you see all of that? Do you see victory?
Tell me what…what do you see?
Can you see the crown of thorns there on His head?
Can you see Jesus Christ raised from the dead?
Can you see all men bow praising our King?
Can you see Him at the throne? Do you see angels sing?
Can you see the Christ child, God’s Lamb on the hay?
Can you see Him coming back as a Lion someday?
Can you see Him hanging there, nailed to the tree?
Tell me now, that’s what you see!
Oh, it’s all in the manger, it’s all there to see!
Tell me now, that’s what you see! I pray now, that’s what you see!
What do you see?
Fade out: What do you see? What do you see? What do you see?
