Intro

On a night like this on a broken road
she is far from sleep, she is far from home
for a baby's cries tear the still of night
she wonders why
the future was bright and clear; she planned for a wedding day
her daddy would hold back tears giving her hand away
now all her hope and fear in a cradle lay
- - / - -
for a baby came and everything changed
on a night like this many years ago
as she held him close, she had come to know
that a mother's heart could not let him go
and she now knows why
the future was bright and clear with hope and a promise made
the Light of the world was near, choirs of angels sang
heaven's exalted king in a manger lay
- - - / - -
cause a baby came and everything changed
when our dreams grow dim and our hearts grow cold
build on
He is never far from our broken soul
Gloria! our God is with us!
Gloria! He has come to save!
Mercy and love now for every generation
for the Savior came and everything changed
Gloria! our God is with us!
Gloria! He has come to save!
Mercy and love now for every generation
- - / - -
for the Savior came and everything changed
