Come to us the world is waiting,
Saviour, come in our night
Light that begins in the night
Child of God, Mary's Child
You descend from the Father
You return to the father again
die de hel zijt doorgegaan
and heavenwards is risen
Your manger dazzles in the night
With unknown beauty
The faith lives in that light
Wherefor all darkness yields
Glory to God in the heavens
Father Son and Spirit the same
Now and ever always
Now and forever more
Saviour, come in our night
Light that begins in the night
Child of God, Mary's Child
You descend from the Father
You return to the father again

and heavenwards is risen
Your manger dazzles in the night
With unknown beauty
The faith lives in that light
Wherefor all darkness yields
Glory to God in the heavens
Father Son and Spirit the same
Now and ever always
Now and forever more
