Before there was time or space, or any need for grace,
There was a word echoing through the darkness and void,
And then the one who would be, this word reached out to me,
Promising peace, promising hope, promising hope.
Lead: Hope of the Ages,
Reply: Jesus the hope of the ages,
Born in the moment of time,
the word became Jesus Mary's sweet son, savior devine, sweet savior divine,
Messiah the prophet foretold, a baby to hold,
Hope of the ages glory restored,
Jesus is joy, peace, hope and joy.
They were times, the worst of times, when violence, war and crime,
Threatened the world, made men afraid, made mothers mourn,
And one darkened lonely night, there came abiding light,
Spreading the skies, angels on high, A child is born.
