light of the world (behold version)

the world waits for a miracle

the heart longs for a little bit of hope

o come

o come

emmanuel

a child prays for peace on earth

and she's calling out from a sea of hurt

o come

o come

emmanuel

and can you hear the angels singing

glory to the light of the world

glory

the light of the world is here

the drought breaks with the tears of a mother

a baby's cry is the sound of love

come down

come down

emmanuel

he is the song for the suffering

he is messiah

the prince of peace has come

he has come

emmanuel

glory to the light of the world

glory

the light of the world is here

for all who wait

for all who hunger

for all who've prayed

for all who wonder

behold your king

behold messiah

emmanuel

emmanuel

glory to the light of the world

glory to the light of the world

glory to the light of the world

glory

the light of the world is here
