The Promise Of a Child

The pages tell creation story
A timeless tale which angels sing
To earth below from heaven's glory
The promise of a newborn king

Hiding in the garden ashamed
Of what he'll see a covenant with Adam
A promise made to eve

Trough abraham and sarah his faithfulness
Displayed from Isaac on to jacob
A light to guide the way

The promise of a child, soon he will appear
The promise of a child, redemption's drawing near

It's woven in the pages, it echoes trough the ages
Creation reconciled, the promise of a child

With the tribe of judah, the oath again is heard
From the law of moses, the coming of the word
A royal son of david, a child who will be king
The ruler of the nation of whom the angels sing

The promise of a child, soon he will appear
The promise of a child, redemption's drawing near

It's woven in the pages, it echoes trought the ages
Creation reconciled, the promise of child

Yonder breaks the glorious morn
The night when Jesus Christ was born
Please as mean with man to dwell
Jesus our Emanuel!

The promise of a child, redemption is now here
The promise of a child, His covenant made clear

It's woven in the pages, it echoes trough the ages
Creation reconciled, the promise of a child
