Precious Promise lyrics
Song information
Artist: Steven Curtis Chapman Album: Music Of Christmas
Lyrics
Oh what a precious promise Oh what a gift of love; An angel tells a virgin that She's gonna have a son And though it's a precious promise She wonders how can this be; What will the people say And what if joseph can't believe And her questions and her fears Are met with an overwhelming joy That god has chosen her Oh what a precious promise; Mary waits as heaven comes to earth
Oh what a precious promise Oh what a gift of love; Joseph makes his choice to do What few men would have done: To take mary as his bride When she's already carrying a child That isn't his own Oh what a precious promise; Mary and the child will have a home
And shepherds stand on a hillside Their hearts racing with the news the angel told them; A star's light fills up the dark sky As the night of precious promise is unfolding
Oh what a precious promise Oh what a gift of love; The waiting now is over and The time has finally come For the god who made this world To roll back the curtain And unveil his passion for the heart of man Oh what a precious promise Lying in a manger in bethlehem Oh what a precious promise Lying in a manger in bethlehem
