Savior of the World

There in the fields as the shepherds lay An angel appeared, startled them awake He said unto them, "Don't be afraid, For the King of Heaven is born today!" "Wrapped in cloth as a sign to you There in the manger you'll find Him soon" Then suddenly there was a multitude Of angels and heavenly hosts singing to the Lord Let the nations praise, the Messiah reigns And His Kingdom will be forever more Long awaited King, all creation sings To the Christ, the Savior of the world Born of a virgin, Emmanuel There in the stable the shepherds knelt Heaven blew trumpets and angels sang And the melodies echoed the night You came to us Let the nations praise, the Messiah reigns And His Kingdom will be forever more Long awaited King, all creation sings To the Christ, the Savior of the world It was foretold that our Lord would come A conquering King, strong and mighty One But who could've known that You'd be like us The glory of God in a babe, Jesus You are the One that makes darkness flee You are the One that sets captives free You are the One we will bow before Singing hallelujah to You, Lord We sing hallelujah to You, Lord Let the nations praise, the Messiah reigns And His Kingdom will be forever more Long awaited King, all creation sings To the Christ, the Savior of the world Let the nations praise, our Messiah reigns And Your Kingdom will be forever more Let the earth proclaim the Name above all names Jesus Christ, the Savior of the world Jesus You're the Savior of the world
