Light of the World (”Behold” Version) lyrics

[Verse 1]
The world waits for a miracle
The heart longs for a little bit of hope
O come, O come Emmanuel

The child prays for peace on Earth
And she's calling out from a sea of hurt
O come, O come Emmanuel

[Pre-Chorus]
And can you hear
The angels singing

[Chorus 1]
Glo-o-o, o-o-ory to the light of the world
Glo-o-o, o-o-ory the light of the world
He is here

[Verse 2]
The drought breaks with the tears of a mother
A baby's cry is the sound of love
Come down, come down, Emmanuel

He is the song for the suffering
He is Messiah, the Prince of Peace
Has come, He has come, Emmanuel
[Chorus 1]
Glo-o-o, o-o-ory to the light of the world
Glo-o-o, o-o-ory the light of the world
He is here

[Bridge]
For all who wait
For all who hunger
For all who've prayed
For all who wander

Behold your King
Behold Messiah
Emmanuel, Emmanuel

[Chorus 2]
Glo-o-o, o-o-ory to the light of the world
Glo-o-o, o-o-ory to the light of the world
Glo-o-o, o-o-ory to the light of the world
Glo-o-o, o-o-ory the light of the world
He is here

[Instrumental]
