    Mary waits as heaven comes to earth

Oh what a precious promise
A   Oh what a gift of love
    Joseph makes his choice to do
    What few men would have done
    
    To take Mary as his bride
    When she's already carrying a child
B   That isn't his own
    Oh what a precious promise
    Mary and the child will have a home

Oh what a precious promise
 A  Oh what a gift of love

For the God who made this world
