Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Cities full no place He could stay
Royal birth deserved so much more
Little did we know He was Lord
Humbled He chose to feel our needs
Gave up heaven to walk these streets
This was not a boy child of earth
God's own Son, the gift of new birth
Fall on your knees
O hear the angel voices
O Night divine
Oh night, when Christ was born
I will sing out
And join the angels sound
To worship & bow down
In awe of Christ our saviour now
Oh what a day
When God our Father gave
The Son forever praised
I am in awe of Jesus name
Oh praise Him saviour of the world
Oh worship bow before Him
Oh praise Him Jesus born our king
Oh praise Him
Oh praise Him
Oh praise Him
The song "The Sound" by Gales begins with the reflection of what seems to be an unfulfilling day in a turmoil-filled city where one can't seem to find a place to stay. The opening sets the scene of a restless human existence that lacks a sense of belonging. However, with the turn of the lyrics, the mood shifts into something more profound. The song's central theme is a reflection on the birth of Jesus Christ and the wonder it evokes in people, regardless of their faith or belief.
The song asserts that the birth of Jesus Christ was not just an ordinary event but a divine revelation. The lyrics depict Jesus' birth as a humbling experience, choosing to feel human needs after giving up heaven. The last two lines of the first verse declares that Christ is not just an earthly child, but rather God's Son, a gift of a new birth. The song emphasizes the essence of the Nativity story, the significance of the birth of Christ, and the closeness to humanity's suffering.
The chorus emphasizes the joyous celebration of the birth, calling everyone to join the angels' sound and worship the saviour. The song's overall theme is the wonder of Christ our Saviour, praising Him for his redemptive work and extolling his majesty. It highlights the mystery and majesty of the incarnation, the mind-boggling thought that God became human.
