Lyrics:

Refrain: A child is born for us today. Alleluia. He is our savior and our God. alleluia.

1. Let our hearts resound with joy and sing a song of gladness for the Lord our brother is come and we are redeemed.

2. Tell the world of our good news: Jesus Christ is among us, and his prescence we celebrate offering peace and our joy to all.

3. Christ is born, the Christ has come! Sing everyone: Alleluia! Caught in wonder at this birth we worship God become one with us.

4. Glory to God, born today of the Virgin Mary, in a cave at Bethlehem: is there room in our lives for him?

5. His name shall be emmanuel; God who lives among us. Angles sing and shpeherds cry: born is the Svior our Lord.

6. The Magi went and worshipped him with gifts so precious and costly. In the fervor of their faith they sought the child who is Lord and king.

7. The Lord will make integrity and peace to grow in our times. A covenant he offers us. Lasting joy will be ours to share.

8. Arise, shine out, Jerusalem! The glory of Yahweh has come to you. Lift up your eyes and look around! Radiant is your salvation.
