The light of Israel shall become a fire
And the Holy One a flame
The child of miracles born to be Messiah
Over all the earth will reign
Rejoice You sons of Israel
God has come to save His people
What joy what celebration
See our Saviour promised long ago
Poor shepherds stand in awe
As angel singing fills the air
And kings come bowing low to pay their homage there
See Mary hold her baby
Son of God in her embrace
And Joseph stares in wonder
At the look upon the Saviour’s face
Yet who can see the sufferings
And the victory still to come
The path that leads to Calvary
Rising up to heaven
Hallelujah hallelujah
Hallelujah praise His name
Hallelujah hallelujah
Hallelujah praise His name
