Nick & Becky Drake - The Angels Knew

The angels knew from long ago
That God so loved the world
and would not let it go
And prayers of saints
across the years
Were crying out for
a Messiah to appear
Where can he be
This child of God
The wise men longed to see
who they'd been dreaming of
The star shone out
the angels sang
The sound of heaven
ringing out across the land
Gloria gloria
Gloria gloria
Into the night into the cold
Onto the stable floor
the Son of God was born
From heaven's throne
to Mary's arms
The God who made
the stars became like one of us
Christ is born Christ is born
Christ is born Christ is born
This day of love this day of grace
This day when God came
to embrace the human race
The hope of all the light of life
The King of Glory born
to die for you and I
Jesus Jesus
