Card Michael Miscellaneous They Called Him Laughter They Called Him Laughter (by Michael Card) ------------------------ A barren land and a barren wife, Made Abraham laugh at his wandering life. A cruel joke it seemed then to call him the father of nations. A heavenly prank, a celestial joke, Cause gray hair and babies leave no room for hope. But hoping was something this hopeless old man learned to do. Chorus: They called him laughter, for he came after, The Father had made an impossible promise come true. The birth of a baby to a hopeless old lady, So they called him laughter, cause no other name would do. A cry in the darkness and laughter at night, An elderly couple sit holding him tight. An improbable infant, a punchline, a promise come true. They laughed 'til they wept, then they laughed at their tears. This miracle baby they'd wanted for years, Would make a Messiah who'd give us impossible joy. |
