What kind of girl would take on the world By claiming an angel had come And what kind of man would still take her hand Knowing he wasn't the one And what kind of love, whatever it was, most people call it crazy But it would take that kind of faith Getting ready for a baby What ugly words they must have heard Whispered as neighbors went by Did they defend the rumors of sin Wonder if they even tried Would I walk that road, I'll never know, the best I can say is maybe Were they all by themselves, did they have any help Getting ready for a baby One silent night, He changed their lives like babies always do But Mary and Joseph had no idea how He would change mine too They had the job of cradling God as He entered this world to save me All a part of the plan, so much more than Getting ready for a baby What kind of love, whatever it was Someday I thank them for facing All the heartache they knew Everything they went through Getting ready for a baby
