As recorded on Savior: Celebrating the Mystery of God Become Man

“Hope Has Come” is an exuberant and lyrically rich celebration of the Incarnation miracle. It invites us to “join with the angel’s voices” not only lyrically, but also with its joyful rhythms—and leads us to celebrate not the song, but the Savior.


Lyrics

Let us join with the angel voices
Let us join their happy song
All of heaven and earth rejoices
For the Lamb of God has come
He has come to rescue sinners
Come to meet our desperate need
He was born to bring forgiveness
Born for Calvary

Alleluia, Hope has come
Alleluia, Christ has come
We once were slaves in misery
Till You appeared and set us free
Alleluia, Hope has come

Let us lay our gifts before Him
Let us magnify His Name
With our thankful hearts adore Him
For the Lord has come to save
He has come to break sin’s power
He has come to set us free
Hope was born that glorious hour
Christ the mighty King
