Good news, good news An angel brings good news Good news, good news I meet you with good news Close your eyes fold your hands For a moment let your sorrow fade Why? Oh, why are you afraid? Has this world stripped you of your faith? Close your eyes and on bended knee Listen to an angel pray And once again prepare the way So you'll see a gift that's given For you a time of joy, behold a baby boy Good news, good news An angel brings good news Good news, good news I meet you with good news Bow your head, speak not a word Let the silence take you far from here The spirit of a child dry every tear And may your doubts, they disappear Bow your head and on bended knee Hear the story once again The child grew up to wear a cross A child grew up to pledge a life For us a time of joy, behold, Christ a baby boy Good news, good news An angel brings good news Good news, good news I meet you with good news For us is born this night In a manger wrapped in swaddling clothes Christ the Saviour, Christmas day All our burdens washed away We break the bread We pour the wine And angels descend With a heavenly sigh Good news, good news An angel brings good news Good news, good news I meet you with I leave you with good news
