Seven pounds, two ounces A baby boy is born Teddy bears are waiting to be loved A father smiling proudly He's been waiting for a son He's thankful for his blessings from above Now he understands his father's love Could you give your only son To set the captive free Could you watch him die upon a rugged tree Could you turn and walk away Forsake the one you love I wonder could you give your only son In a manger long ago A little boy begin to cry His father watched him grow to be a man Knowing all alone That his son would have to die A life or death wasn't his command He must have care a lot Or fall the man
