The world is waiting
For a baby's cry
The promised moment
Is tonight
Shepherds watching
Angels Sing
Wisemen marvel at their King
Messiah has been born to us
A child, Heavens glorious
Perfect love, anointed one
Messiah, our Messiah
Has come
Mother smiling
Such little hands
Father's holding
the son of man
Messiah has been born to us
A child, Heaven's glorious
Perfect love, anointed one
Messiah, our Messiah
Hallelujah, Glory to God
Hallelujah, there's no greater love
Hallelujah, Oh Glory to God
Hallelujah, our Messiah has come
Precious Saviour
Blessed one
Peace for sinners
Behold the lamb of God
Messiah has been born to us
A child, Heaven's glorious
Perfect love, anointed one
Messiah, our Messiah
Messiah has been born to us
A child, Heaven's glorious
Perfect love, anointed one
Messiah, Our Messiah
Messiah, Our Messiah
Has come
