 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
