A cattle trough filled with straw Became your royal bed Starlight on a winter's night Crowned your tiny head Animals and shepherds watched As you fell asleep And all of heaven gathered in To bow before a King You didn't choose the perfect You didn't choose the clean Just beneath the surface Things weren't as they seemed 'Cause all at once the simple Became a grand cathedral And nothing else would ever be the same There was beauty in the broken The moment you came A father closed his eyes to pray And took his daughter's hand They'd had a year of trials and tears They'd never understand But at a Christmas table Where little was enough The two of them gave thanks again For a Savior and his love You didn't choose the perfect You didn't choose the clean Just beneath the surface Things weren't as they seemed 'Cause all at once the simple Became a grand cathedral And nothing else would ever be the same There was beauty in the broken The moment you came We are sinners and saints Who have all made mistakes But you see us and you know us And you love us all the same We come helpless and hopeless We come lost to be found And here beside the manger We bow, we bow You don't choose the perfect You don't choose the clean Just beneath the surface We aren't as we seem 'Cause all at once the simple Becomes a grand cathedral And nothing else will ever be the same (no) You don't choose the perfect You don't choose the clean Just beneath the surface We aren't as we seem 'Cause all at once the simple Becomes a grand cathedral And nothing else will ever be the same There was beauty in the broken The moment you came
