Mothers and Shepherds (Choral Version)

Come now and hear the sound

Of mothers gathered ‘round

Tears are streaming down in Bethlehem

Grieving life that didn’t have to end

Asking God to justify the pain

Never knowing he would feel the same

The powerful oppress the prophecy

But shepherds passing through have found a king

Ooh …

Ooh …

Rumor has it that a child is born

And it’s said that we will call him Lord

Heaven’s angels came to let us know

That our freedom rest upon his throne

So we’ve traveled from across this land

Seeking out the new and precious lamb

The one who came and made time stand still

When heaven opened up at God’s own will

Hallelujah, glory in the highest

King Messiah, savior of the world

Now forever we will sing the song

Of the one who was and is to come

All creation joins in harmony

In declaring he is perfectly

Holy holy, merciful and mighty

God has sent the savior of the world
