A child is born in the ci-ty of Da-vid.
Al-though he speaks not, a bless-ing he brings.
Bring forth the trea-sures the earth has to of-fer.
Of-fer him frank-in-cense, go-ld, and myrrh.
A boy is raised in the la-nd of hon-ey.
He grows. He learns. He tea-ches. He prays.
Pa-tient-ly grow-ing in wis-dom and spir-it, the
Fa-ther is pleased. The Son he ob-eys.
A man is dead in the land of the cho-sen.
Tried and killed for crimes we ab-hore.
Preach-ing and teach-ing and heal-ing our child-ren.
For this, he'll suf-fer and plague us no more.
The Son, he lives in the land of his Fa-ther.
The tomb lies still emp-ty to-day.
His wis-dom and know-ledge he left us for guid-ance.
To God give glo-ry, the Son shows the way.
He gave us a promise to come claim his child-ren.
He left us his spirit to show us the light.
So pa-tient-ly wait-ing we watch for our Sav-iour to
come in a cloud with all pow-er and might. Pow-er and might!
