Long we've lived in darkness; long is the night.
How the powerful betray us
Yet when Messiah comes,
He'll make all things right
Send Your light, o Lord, illuminate us!

CHORUS:
Christ, the Prince of Peace is born.
Christ, the King of Glory
History hinges on this baby boy.
Hallelujah! Christ is born

Strength is given us to shelter the weak.
Wealth for want is Yahweh's story
So when the spring of life pours out, full and free.
Sing hosanna for God's glory!
