Lyrics
How suddenly a baby cries and all forever change
As shepherds leave the angel song to find this holy place
There in her frail and trembling arms a virgin holds her Son
And in this child of breath divine our light has finally come
She ponders how the Magi kneel before Emmanuel
With gold and frankincense and myrrh, Christ's sacrifice they fell
A dream would help them flee a king whose pride would cruelly destroy
As sorrow weeps, God's mercy meets the hunger for His joy
What wonder still that Anna, filled with praise, should bless the Lord
Her aging eyes now looking on the Savior of the world
For night and day her prayers had filled the temple of our God
Her heart could tell His saving hand within this gift of love
Hear Simeon who had waited long draw near and hold the Child
To speak of Him who could reveal the many thoughts we hide
That hearts would rise to know His grace but many fall away
A sword would pierce His mother's soul upon redemption day
The light that dawned in Bethlehem now shines within my heart
The hope that wakened saints of old is now my Morning Star
As history turns upon this time God's favor rests on earth
I lift my voice like those before to tell Messiah's birth
I lift my voice like those before to tell Messiah's birth
