Text Based On Isaiah Chapter 9
And his name shall be called Wonderful,Counseller,
The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.
The People That In Darkness Walked
The people that in darkness walked
Have seen a wondrous light,
A light that beamed afar,
The bright and morning star,
And those that dwelt in death's dark vale
Have felt their joy increase,
Their constant theme shall be,
"All hail the Prince of Peace."
Refrain
Wonderful, Counseller!
The everlasting Father,
And the Prince of Peace,
Wonderful, Counseller!
The everlasting Father,
And the Prince of Peace.
As men rejoice when they divide
The spoils which they have gained,
So shall it never be,
When Christ shall set them free.
For He shall break the shoulder's staff,
The rod of the oppressed,
And every battle won,
As victors we shall rest.
Refrain
For unto us a Child is born,
To us a Son is given;
His kingdom shall increase,
And never, never cease,
Upon the throne of David shall
He reign forevermore,
Till every knee shall bow
And every heart adore.
Refrain
