Eternity rang
As God delivered His gift
From heaven’s splendor
To earth’s clay:
Demons trembled
Angels sang
A mother smiled
A baby cried out.
Eternity quaked
As God delivered His gift
From heaven’s mercy
To earth’s cross:
Angels trembled
Demons smiled
The Father turned away
A mother cried out.
Eternity thundered
As God delivered His gift
From earth’s tomb
To heaven’s victory:
A mother trembled
The Father smiled
Angels sang
Demons cried out.
Eternity resounded
As God delivered His gift
From earth’s mortality
To heaven’s glory:
Demons trembled
Angels sang
The Son smiled
Man cried out.
God delivered man
Delivered
His gift.
