Then There Was Christmas ft. Sara Wallingford Lyrics

In the beginning, God said

Let there be light

And out of the darkness, it was

The sun was assigned to govern the day

Before we were blind

Before we were made

In the beginning, God said

It is good

And for the time being, it was

Man was designed to govern the earth

Before any woman labored in birth

Long before Christmas

Or that star in the sky

Signified our forgiveness

And angels sang in reply

Glory to God in the highest heaven

Glory to God in the highest heaven

There was a time when God said, I am that I am

No name or description He held

Delivered us once, again and again

Tried living amongst

Our hard-headed hearts

Most stubborn of men

Long before Christmas

Or the shepherds proclaimed

Testified and gave witness

Glorified and gave praise

Singing

Glory to God in the highest heaven

Glory to God in the highest heaven

Then in a humble stable

Was born the light of the world

Eyes of the blind then able to see the cripple walk

Born of the Virgin Mary

A name, Messiah to mean

Ears of the deaf then able to hear the mute tongue speak

We were broken and separated

Self-indulged while He advocated

God the Father, devastated decides to reconcile

Christ authorized to govern us all

Yaweh, Adonai

Rebellious souls since the time of the fall

We were destined to die

Then there was Christmas

And the darkness gave way

Emmanuel, God is with us

Hallelujah, Jesus saves

Glory to God in the highest heaven

Glory to God in the highest heaven
