Hope Has Come
Sovereign Grace Music Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I can hear the angel voices
"Christ is born" they all are singing
From the sky this good news bringing
Let the earth rejoice
O come and lift your voices
Christ the Lord is born today
God is born a man today
To bring His children home
To bring His children home
Death and darkness surely tremble
Light has come to all the people
The Lion comes to crush the serpent
He comes a Lamb, a lowly servant
Let the earth rejoice
O come and lift your voices
Christ the Lord is born today
He came from heaven's throne
God is born a man today
To bring His children home
To bring His children home
God has sent His greatest treasure
Shown His love in greatest measure
Sending Christ to bleed and suffer
Purchasing our joy forever
Let the earth rejoice
O come and lift your voices
Christ the Lord is born today
He came from heaven's throne
God is born a man today
To bring His children home
To bring His children home
Christ the Lord is born today
He came from heaven's throne
God is born a man today
To bring His children home
To bring His children home
