What child is this? Could this be him?
The promised one from long ago
Whose heel shall crush the serpent's head
Its sting we will not know
The curse no more will have a hold
Our sin it has not won
For death shall meet its end in him
The Son of Eve has come
What child is this? Could this be him?
The promised one from long ago
Who's come at last to rescue us
And make his blessings flow
The vow to Abram seen at last
Around the heavenly throne
The longing world will then rejoice
The Son of Abram has come
He's the One
He's the One
He's the One that the world's waited for
Christ has come
Christ has come
In a manger salvation was born
What child is this? Could this be him?
The promised one from long ago
From now until eternity
Shall reign upon his throne
And all the sadness of the world
At last will come undone
For peace will find its home with us
The Son of David has come
He's the One
He's the One
He's the One that the world's waited for
Christ has come
Christ has come
In a manger salvation was born
What child is this? Could this be him?
The promised one from long ago
The God who holds the universe
Now held by hands he formed
Becoming flesh he tasted death
Behold him God the Son
Immanuel our God with us
The Son of Mary has come
He's the One
He's the One
He's the One that the world's waited for
Christ has come
Christ has come
In a manger salvation was born
