Lyrics
In the First Light – Verse 1
In the first light of the new day
No one knew He had arrived.
Things continued as they had been
While a newborn softly cried.
But the heavens, wrapped in wonder
Knew the meaning of His birth.
In the weakness of a baby
They knew God had come to earth.
In the First Light – Verse 2
As His mother held Him closely
It was hard to understand
That her Baby, not yet speaking
Was the Word of God to man.
He would tell them of His kingdom
But their hearts would not believe.
They would hate Him, and in anger
They would nail Him to a tree.
In the First Light – Verse 3
But the sadness would be broken
As the Song of Life arose.
And the firstborn of creation
Would ascend and take His throne.
He had left it to redeem us
But before His life began
He knew He’d come back, not as a baby
But as the Lord of ev’ry man!
In the First Light – Chorus
Hear the angels as they’re singing
On the morning of His birth.
But how much greater will our song be
When He comes again
When He comes again?
Hear the angels as they’re singing
On the morning of His birth.
But how much greater will our song be
When He comes again to earth
When He comes to rule the earth
The earth!...
