Verso 1

We thought You'd come
With a crown of gold
A string of pearls and a cashmere robe
We thought You'd clinch an iron fist
And rain like fire on the politics

Refrão

But without a sword no armored guard
But common born in mother's arms
The government now rests upon
The shoulders of this baby son

Verso 2

Have you no room inside your heart
The inn is full the out is dark
Upon profane shines sacred sun
Not ashamed to be one of us

Refrão

But without a sword no armored guard
But common born in mother's arms
The government now rests upon
The shoulders of this baby son

Ponte

Gloria Allelu Christ the Lord
We've longed for You
