Christmas Single:
Heaven's Kiss is a story from Mary's perspective of realizing who she was commissioned to give birth to and raise into a man. The King of Kings! Jesus! Emmanuel!
Imagine yourself in Mary's position fully loving and worshipping this beautiful Son of Man as her own son.
The concept for this song came from two very important things:
1. A sermon my daughter preached on humility, and how Jesus presented such humility by coming to the earth to be raised by humans in all their flesh, yet as God, submitted to the headship of His earthly parents: Mary and Joseph.
2. The Chosen Scene: Mary Remembers Jesus' birth

Lyrics
Verse1
Tiny hands holding mine as you reach for me
When I hear the softest cries I feel your every need
Smelling warm and soft and sweet
As you nuzzle in to sleep, You hold on to me
VERSE 2
With all my heart I glorify this tiny King of Kings
Fully God and fully man you chose this frailty
Choosing small and simple lives
To raise the perfect sacrifice
You hold on to me
CHORUS 1
Light of the world resting in my arms
You are the prince of peace, what was I expecting?
Emmanuel, here under the stars
I am full of need, yet you rely on me
I don’t know what I expected, but it wasn’t this my sweet heaven’s kiss
VERSE 3
Every heart will magnify the One who came to save
You will heal all who come with your tender grace
You embraced a mother’s care
But in this moment I’m aware
You hold on to me, You hold on to me
CHORUS 2
Light of the world resting in my arms
You are the prince of peace, what was I expecting?
Emmanuel, here under the stars
I am full of need, yet you rely on me
I don’t know what I expected, but it wasn’t this my sweet heaven’s kiss
BRIDGE
My child became a man, and now I understand
Why You chose to come
Now I hear your voice, sweeping through the noise
Saying you have held me all along
CHORUS 3
Light of the world, I’m resting in your arms
You are the prince of peace, what was I expecting?
Emmanuel, my home is where you are
I have all I need when you are holding me
I don’t know what I expected, but it wasn’t this my sweet heaven’s kiss
