The Humblest of Them All
For Unison Children's Choir and Keyboard. This sweet little children's anthem is a real gem for Advent or Palm Sunday. A wonderful message and a lovely tune.
The highway to Bethlehem was rocky and worn
as Mary rode faithfully to that first Christmas morn.
She could have ridden on a grand, noble steed
But instead God chose a donkey: it was all that she'd need.
He chose the lowly, he chose the small;
He chose the littlest one of them all.
He chose the humblest of them all.
The road to Jerusalem with palm leaves was paved
as Jesus rode into town, all people to save.
He could have ridden on a grand, noble steed
But instead God chose a donkey: it was all that he'd need.
He chose the lowly, he chose the small;
He chose the littlest one of them all.
He chose the humblest of them all.
The path we are walking on is barely begun,
but we're chosen to follow it by God's gracious Son.
He chose the lowly, he chose the small;
He chose the littlest one of them all.
He chose the humblest of them all.
The lowly, the little, the meek and the small,
He chooses the humblest of us all.
