The angel of the Lord did say
To Joseph, Now fear not today
The angel of the Lord did say
To Joseph, Now fear not today
Take Mary to wife, begotten
Of the Spirit is her child, son
For she shall sure bring forth a Son
To be called JESUS, He the One
For she shall sure bring forth a Son
To be called JESUS, He the One
Saviour sent forth from God to earth
Making possible man\'s new birth
Shall save His people from theirs sins
Forgive, make them all clean within
Shall save His people from theirs sins
Forgive, make them all clean within
As spoken by prophet of old
Now let the good tidings be told
Isaiah said, a virgin shall
Bring forth a son, we know it well
Isaiah said, a virgin shall
Bring forth a son, we know it well
Shall call His name Emmanuel
God with us, rings through hill and dale
