Lyrics
In the stillness of the night
I am waiting
For the promise he made long ago
Every day
Every hour I'm watching
For the signs that will surely show
I long for the sound of the trumpet
I long for the sight of my lord
I tell everyone that he's coming
So they'll know it's him when he does
I long for the voice of the angels Announcing
Announcing his presence is here
With a heart full of faith I am ready
For the moment that he will appear
The Heavens will open before us
The light of his glory will shine
Oh what a joy
Oh what a joy
Far away
Heavenly here love
I long for the sound of the trumpet
I long for the sight of my lord
I tell everyone that he's coming
So they'll know it's him when he does
I long for the voice of the angels Announcing
Announcing his presence is here
With a heart full of faith I am ready
For the moment that he will appear
In the stillness of the night
I am waiting
For the promise he made long ago
Every day
Every hour I'm watching
For the signs that will surely show
