Текст песни Because This Child Was Born - Roberta Flack

Because This Child Was Born

Hark now, hear the angels sing
Because this child was born
All mankind has been redeemed
Because this child was born
Laid aside His golden crown
Then from heaven He came down
Now the lost can all be found
Because this child was born

Wise men came from near and far
On that first Christmas morn
Guided by a twinkling star
To where this child was born
Meek and lonely was his way
From his manger filled with hay
Peace and joy are ours today
Because this child was born

We can have eternal life
Because this child was born
Free from pain and free from strife
Because this child was born
He broke the bonds of death and sin
Ours the victory to win
We then have again within
Because this child was born

All creation joins in song
Because this child was born
Grateful praise to God belongs
Because this child was born
King of Kings and Lord of Lords
There to reign forever more
Graceful reign and love adorned
Because this child was born
Because this child was born
(Because this child, this child was born)
