Overview:
“Ordinary Baby” is a gentle reflection on a profound truth: that God chose humility over grandeur. Through simple yet powerful words, the piece reminds us that Jesus came into the world not to intimidate, but to invite—sharing fully in our joy, pain, and brokenness so that no one would be afraid to come to Him.
He was just an ordinary baby
That’s the way He planned it, maybe
Anything but common, would’ve kept Him apart
Apart from the children that He came to rescue
Limited to some elite few
When He was the only Child who asked to be born
And He came to us with eyes wide open
Knowing how we’re hurt and broken
Choosing to partake of all our joy and pain
He was just an ordinary baby
That’s the way He planned it, maybe
So that we could come to Him and not be afraid
He was ordinary with еxception
Of miraculous conception
Both His birth and death Hе planned from the start
But between His entrance and His exit
Was a life that has affected everyone
Who’s walked the earth to this very day
And with no airs of condescension
He became God’s pure extension
Giving you and me the chance to be remade
He was just an ordinary baby
That’s the way He planned it, maybe
So that we could come to Him
So that we could come to Him and not be afraid
