lyrics
Arrival in the land of the mourning, the downtrodden and the oppressed
The heavens touching earth with their radiance muted and suppressed
He reaches out his hands to the needy, embracing those in distress
A promise kept
He saw them stooped in pain and injustice, backs bowed low in despair
And told them he would raise up a Savior, the Sovereign of the Air
To ease them from the weight of their burdens, free their feet from the snare
A promise kept
Heaven and earth will pass away
But His Word will never pass away
The Word made flesh
Signed in blood
The advent of a miracle child, fulfillment of what was sworn
He promises a hope and a future, a calm to quell the storm
The baby in the beggarly manger, Immanuel is born
A promise kept
A promise kept
