Soon

Your people wait in darkness now
But know the night will not be lasting
Beyond the shadow of the clouds
We see the light that Love is casting
And soon it will illuminate the earth
As we behold the rising sun
Your people wait in darkness now
But soon the dawn of Christ will come

Your people wait in silence now
But know the word will soon be spoken
A word that will proclaim our God
And speak the truth our hearts will hope in
The sound will pierce the emptiness we knew
Returning unto us our song
Your people wait in silence now
But soon the Word of Christ will come

Your people wait in wonder now
For what our faithful God has promised
A savior, who with mercy comes
A child, breathing peace among us
This life redeeming us from sin and grave
With Love that is for everyone
Your people wait in wonder now
For soon the Lamb of God is born

Your people wait in darkness now
But soon the dawn of Christ will come
