When a Child is born, when a Child is born
A ray of hope flickers in the sky
A tiny star lights up way up high
And all across the land dawns a brand new morn
This comes to pass when a Child is born
A silent wish sails the seven seas
And the winds of change whisper in the trees
And the walls of doubt crumble tossed and torn
This comes to pass when a Child is born
When a Child is born (ooh)
A Holy Child is born
It's all a dream, an illusion now
But it will come true, sometime soon somehow
And all across the land dawns a brand new morn
This comes to pass when a Child is born
Oh when a Child is born (ooh)
A Holy Child is born
Lalala
Lalalalala
Lalalala
Lalalalala
All across the land dawns a brand new morn
This comes to pass when a Child is born
Oh when a Child is born (Ooh)
A Holy Child is born, is born
Nation shall speak peace unto nation
When a Child will lead us
Nation shall speak peace unto nation
Yeah the Child is gonna lead us
Nation shall speak peace unto nation
Holy Child is born
Nation shall speak peace unto nation
And the Child will lead us home
A ray of hope flickers in the sky
A tiny star lights up way up high
And all across the land dawns a brand new morn
This comes to pass when a Child is born
A silent wish sails the seven seas
And the winds of change whisper in the trees
And the walls of doubt crumble tossed and torn
This comes to pass when a Child is born
When a Child is born (ooh)
A Holy Child is born
It's all a dream, an illusion now
But it will come true, sometime soon somehow
And all across the land dawns a brand new morn
This comes to pass when a Child is born
Oh when a Child is born (ooh)
A Holy Child is born
Lalala
Lalalalala
Lalalala
Lalalalala
All across the land dawns a brand new morn
This comes to pass when a Child is born
Oh when a Child is born (Ooh)
A Holy Child is born, is born
Nation shall speak peace unto nation
When a Child will lead us
Nation shall speak peace unto nation
Yeah the Child is gonna lead us
Nation shall speak peace unto nation
Holy Child is born
Nation shall speak peace unto nation
And the Child will lead us home
