Behold This Child Behold this child — observe his eyes, The richness of their gleam, A godly light of depth and sight, The prism of a dream. We hold this child — and see ourselves As we were long ago, Before that cage of time and rage Became our mortal foe. Behold this child — as he begins The journey all embark, Where all will stall, lose ground, and fall Or stumble in the dark. We hold this child — to let him go, But first we clutch him near To clue, beseech, encourage, teach And whisper in his ear. Behold this child — entreat your hearts With faith and hope compiled, To raise each glass, and wish en masse For love to hold this child.
