JOY HAS DAWNED upon the world, Promised from creation: God's salvation now unfurled, Hope for every nation. Not with fanfares from above, Not with scenes of glory, But a humble gift of love: Jesus born of Mary.
Sounds of wonder fill the sky With the songs of angels, As the mighty Prince of Life Shelters in a stable. Hands that set each star in place, Shaped the earth in darkness, Cling now to a mother's breast, Vulnerable and helpless.
Shepherds bow before the Lamb, Gazing at the glory; Gifts of men from distant lands Prophesy the story. Gold, a King is born today, Incense, God is with us, Myrrh, His death will make a way, And by His blood He'll win us.
Son of Adam, Son of heaven, Given as a ransom, Reconciling God and man, Christ our mighty Champion! What a Saviour, what a Friend, What a glorious mystery: Once a babe in Bethlehem, Now the Lord of history.
