[Verse 1]
An angel appeared
Of the highest One
And Mary believed
The word she received of God's only son
The Virgin rejoiced
Gave thanks to the Lord
And as Joseph dreamt
The angel was sent with tidings of peace and joy
Of the blessed baby boy

[Verse 2]
They travelled for miles
To reach Bethlehem
Yet when they arrived
No one could provide a place at the inn for them
But God kept them safe
From hurt, harm and danger
And His warm embrace
Away in a manger waiting for Jesus' birth
To glorify the Earth
Then He came

[Chorus]
One child can change the world
Christmas Morn'
The King of all kings was born
He reigns forevermore
Let us worship and adore
Christ the Lord

[Verse 3]
Wondrous star
Led shepherds and wise men
Through valleys and mountains
Angels surrounded them as they travelled far
As Heaven and Home
Rang out for the Saviour
The Sweet Prince of peace
Lay majestively asleep glorious and pure
And His mercy endures for always

[Chorus]
One child can change the world
Christmas Morn'
The King of all kings was born
He reigns forevermore
Let us worship and adore
Christ the Lord

[Chorus]
One child can change the world (oh oh)
Christmas Morn' (on Christmas Morn')
The King of all kings was born (the King of all kings was born)
He reigns (He reigns) forevermore (forevermore)
Let us worship him
Let us worship him
Let us worship
Christ the Lord

[Hook]
One child can change the world
Merry Christmas to all
(Forevermore)
Merry Christmas to all
One child can change the world
Merry Christmas to all
One child can change the world
Merry Christmas to all

[Outro]
This angel appeared
The angel appeared
Christ the Lord
On Christmas Morn'

Mariah Carey

Mariah Carey (born March 27, 1970) is an American singer, songwriter, record producer, actress, and philanthropist.

Under the guidance of Columbia Records executive Tommy Mottola, Carey released her self-titled debut studio album Mariah Carey in 1990; it went multi-platinum and spawned four consecutive number one singles on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 chart.

Following her marriage to Mottola in 1993 and success with hit records “Emotions” (1991), “Music Box” (1993), and “Merry Christmas” (1994), Carey was established as Columbia’s highest-selling act. Daydream (1995) made music history when its second single “One Sweet Day”, a duet with Boyz II Men, spent a record sixteen weeks on top of the Billboard Hot 100, and remains the longest-running number-one song in U.S. chart history, along with Luis Fonsi and Daddy Yankee’s “Despacito.” During the recording of the album, Carey began to deviate from her R&B and pop beginnings and slowly traversed into hip hop. This musical change became evident with the release of Butterfly (1997), at which time Carey had separated from Mottola.
