Lyrics

The people walking in darkness
Have seen a great light;
On those living in the land of deep darkness
A light has dawned.

You have enlarged the nation
Increased their joy;
They rejoice before you like at harvest,
Or like warriors

For as in the day of Midian’s defeat,
You have shattered the yoke that burdens them,
The bar across their shoulders,
The rod of their oppressors.

Every warrior’s boot used in battle
Every garment rolled in blood
Will be destined for burning,
Will be fuel for the fire.

For unto us a child is born,
For unto us a son is given,
And the government will be on his shoulders.
And he will be called Wonderful
And he will be called Counsellor,
Mighty God, Everlasting Father,
Prince of Peace

The greatness of his government
And peace will not end.
He'll reign on David’s throne and his kingdom,
Establish it
Upholding it with justice and righteousness
From that time on and forever.
The zeal of the Lord Almighty
Will accomplish this

Instrumental

For unto us a child is born,
For unto us a son is given,
And the government will be on his shoulders.
And he will be called Wonderful
And he will be called Counsellor,
Mighty God, Everlasting Father,
Prince of Peace
Prince of Peace
