Lyrics
Every breath of air
Was a silent prayer
I was longing for Your face
And I wondered why
All the years went by
Without a single trace
Anticipating, Lord, we've been waiting
Just watching the days come and go
But now we know
Joy and the angels sang
There was joy
Let the whole world know this
Joy, our King has finally come
Joy, here is the promised One
Set the captives free
Tell the broken reed
Hope has been restored
And the one who cries
For a wandering child
Her tears are not ignored
Father in heaven,
You gave us reason to see past the pain of today
We celebrate
Chorus
Unending hope for all time
When the King of the ages arrived
Chorus
