You spoke into a starry night
A sin-cursed world awaits
The silence of four hundred years
Rattled bones and shaked
A weary world in anguish now
A shepherd’s joy did shout
The message from bright angel wings
What was this news about?
The people of the world did fear
Had God nothing to say?
Sinners on a hopeless trek
A debt they could not pay
The Father sent his Son to us
The Word of God in flesh
From Mary’s womb and Joseph’s arms
To free all those oppressed
