[Verse] In the land of shadow see a great light For unto us a child is born tonight A son is given holy and divine The weight of the world on shoulders so fine [Verse 2] Wonderful counselor mighty God is he Prince of peace they'll call him you will see Everlasting father through eternity Righteousness justice for all humanity [Chorus] He fulfills the promise in the prophecy From ancient days it's the Lord's decree Breaking chains setting captives free He's the light in the darkness eternally [Verse] His kingdom's growing no end to the grace Every knee will bow every heart he'll embrace His name above all with unending praise From the darkness of nights to the brightest days [Bridge] Born in a manger humble and low Shepherds and wise men to him they go Glory to the highest the angels sing A savior born a mighty king [Chorus] He fulfills the promise in the prophecy From ancient days it's the Lord's decree Breaking chains setting captives free He's the light in the darkness eternally
