See all creation pure and bright
Abounding forth in radiant light
Eternal God who made our home
And made a people called his own
See the darkness enter in
All of creation stained with sin
Oh what could overcome the night
From heaven's throne descends the light
From heaven's throne descends the light
The hope of promises fulfilled
From prophets long foretold
The author of all life
Behold the Christ
Descended down to men then lifted up to die
Who crushed the grip of sin
Behold the Christ
Oh see his Son lay down his life
The innocent for those defiled
Forgiveness we may now receive
Oh sinner, won't you now believe?
Oh sinner, won't you now believe?
The hope of promises fulfilled
From prophets long foretold
The author of all life
Behold the Christ
Descended down to men then lifted up to die
Who crushed the grip of sin
Behold the Christ
Oh see him coming for his bride
Wearing spotless robes of white
All of our sorrow is replaced
With joy as we behold his face
With joy as we behold his face
