Joy has dawned upon the world,
Not with fanfares from above,
not with scenes of glory,
But a humble gift of love,
Sounds of wonder fill the sky
with the sounds of angels,
As the mighty Prince of Light
Lands that set each star in place,
Shaped the earth in darkness,
Lean now to our mother's breast,
Gifts of men from distant lands,
Golden King is born today,
But his death will make our way,
And my blood he'll win us.
Christ the mighty champion.
What a Saviour, what a Friend,
Once a babe in Bethlehem,
Lord of Savior, Lord of Friend,
Once a babe in Bethlehem,
Thou the Lord of Israel's to be!
4.7
