Lyrics
Is this what we have been waiting for, the birth of our new King
Sent to save our souls, such a responsibility for one man
Chorus
Let us celebrate the birth of our new King
And all the joy and hope that He will bring
Many people are gathering in Bethlehem tonight
High up in the sky, a star shines to give them a guiding light
Chorus
He will pay with his life to teach us all that we must know
And if He should fail, some responsibility will be ours
Chorus
