COME AND WORSHIP: FALL ON YOUR KNEES

Four hundred years of silence has been broken.
And now again God has finally spoken.
A prophet will come to turn hearts back to God.
Deliverance is coming; let us applaud.
Come and worship: fall on your knees.

The angel Gabriel comes to a young woman.
She will be blessed who has never known a man.
Can it be that the Son of God she carries?
Even before her betrothed Joseph she marries?
Come and worship: fall on your knees.

To Elizabeth Mary will quickly run.
For she too will be blessed with a special son.
God’s mercies toward us have only begun.
The victory will finally be won.
Come and worship: fall on your knees.

The baby in Elizabeth leaps for joy.
He knows Mary’s child is no ordinary boy.
Both Elizabeth and Mary burst into song.
For Mary’s child is the One to end all wrong.
Come and worship: fall on your knees.

Joseph the carpenter is a righteous man.
To stop Mary’s disgrace he will do what he can.
Suddenly an angel comes to him in a dream.
This Child’s not as impossible as it seems.
Come and worship: fall on your knees.

Shepherds in their fields are startled at night.
These humble people witness a glorious sight.
Angel choirs sing about a humble birth.
They say the Son of God is coming to earth.
Come and worship: fall on your knees.

 Simeon knows that he will see the Messiah.
God has promised him and He is no liar.
He sees the little child that Mary now holds.
This is the One that all the prophets foretold.
Come and worship: fall on your knees.

Wise men from far away see a special star.
To worship this Child they will travel far.
At His feet gold, frankincense and myrrh they present.
They too must worship the King that God has sent.
Come and worship: fall on your knees.

Now at this most blessed time of the year.
Let us all join in and sing carols of cheer.
Let us celebrate our Savior’s wondrous birth.
Now is the time to fill our hearts with mirth.
Come and worship: fall on your knees.
