Verso 1

On a night like this
On a broken road
She is far from sleep
She is far from home
For a baby's cries
Tear the still of night
She wonders why

Refrão

The future was bright and clear
She planned for a wedding day
Her daddy would hold back tears
Giving her hand away
Now all her hope and fear
In a cradle lay for a baby came
And everything changed

Verso 2

On a night like this
Many years ago
As she held him close
She had come to know
That a mother's heart
Could not let him go
And she now knows why

Refrão

The future was bright and clear
With hope and a promise made
The Light of the world was near
Choirs of angels sang
Heaven's exalted King
In a manger lay
Cause a baby came
And everything changed

Ponte

When our dreams grow dim
And our hearts grow cold
He is never far
From our broken souls

Refrão

Gloria our God is with us
Gloria He has come to save
Mercy and love
Now for every generation
For the Savior came
And everything changed
