The shadows grew
Though prophets sang
Their hopes were few
Would they die
Before they saw
The One who’d rescue them
From the law? Gloria! Our hope renewed
The King is born
The Promise True
Gloria! The angels say
And give Him praise
This Christmas Day
The time had come
To take a stand
To master that
Which mastered man
A manger, garden
Cross and grave
Alive again
Mankind to save!
Gloria! Our hope renewed
The King is born
The Promise True
Gloria! The angels say
And give Him praise
This Christmas Day
Our spirits free
We have His hope
Of what will be
The world today
Has not found peace
They cannot tame
The inner beast
Two thousand years
And still we wait
We know our Lord
Is never late
So come redeem us
Complete at last
To leave the darkness
Of the past
The King will come
The Promise True
Gloria! The angels say
We’ll ever praise
The Truth, the Life, the Way
