Brandon Heath - Just A Girl lyrics

rate me

I wonder if you heard the story

Of little fame and lesser glory

The night to keep her on me

The little town of Bethlehem

Counting Joseph, fearless Mary

About to birth the savior of the world

His wife said, “go and see who’s knocking”

He ran out to the gate, unlocked it

The moment he heard Mary’s cry

Couldn’t look the in the eye

Denied the men with …when his wife asked who was there

He said, “I don’t know, just a girl

Just a couple of gypsies begging at the door

I told them we don’t have room for any more

And closed the door. It was just a girl”

He tried to sleep, he wasn’t able

He snuck out to the dirty stable

Where the two would find the covering

Later in her suffering …and pray, “what have I done?”

It’s just a bed, just a minute so they’re trembling in the hay

I could’ve found a room for them to stay, I’m so ashamed

It’s just a bed

There is no room, there was no crowd

The shepherd stood on royal ground

The keeper wept for what he done

He turned away God’s own son

Just a kid, just a million angels crowding there to see

Jesus there for all humanity

Just a bed, just a minute so they trembling in the hay

Staring at his mother in the face

She’s just a girl, just a girl

Does she even know that she just changed the world?

Does she even know that He will save the world?

Does Mary know that He will save the world?

She’s just a girl, just a girl, just a girl, just a girl
