Much Like You and Me

Before the Son of God was born
And hung upon a tree
The world was ruled by sinful men
Much like you and me
So much like you and me they were
Much like you and me
So God to save us sent his son
A mortal man to be
For Mary's womb was by God blessed
And will forever be
For by her God was born in man
To save both you and me

The shepherds in their fields at night
Were told of things to be
And they were filled with great delight
Much like you and me
So much like you and me they were
Much like you and me
With voices raised their God they praised
And Christ desired to see
So Bethlehem was made that night
And for eternity
The place where God did send his son
To save both you and me

The world still turns upon God's grace
And sinners still there be
But now each sinner lives with hope
Much like you and me
So much like you and me they are
Much like you and me
By the babe in Bethlehem
Our lives have been set free
Now every woman, man and child
Will live eternally
For God to save us sent his son
To save both you and me
