|
Every breath of air |
|
Was a silent prayer |
|
I was longing for Your face |
|
And I wondered why |
|
All the years went by |
|
Without a single trace |
|
Anticipating, Lord, we've been waiting |
|
Just watching the days come and go |
|
But now we know |
|
Joy and the angels sang |
|
There was joy |
|
Let the whole world know this |
|
Joy, our King has finally come |
|
Joy, here is the promised One |
|
Set the captives free |
|
Tell the broken reed |
|
Hope has been restored |
|
And the one who cries |
|
For a wandering child |
|
Her tears are not ignored |
|
Father in heaven, |
|
You gave us reason to see past the pain of today |
|
We celebrate |
|
Chorus |
|
Unending hope for all time |
|
When the King of the ages arrived |
|
Chorus |
