37 THE WATCHMAN:
Listen to my words people of promise. Be filled with the spirit of hope,
for God Himself shall give you a sign.
Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a Son, and shall call His name Immanuel – "God With Us!"
In a small village this maiden will deliver her Child and He will be the ruler of heaven and earth.
This will be a great miracle – the sacred moment the world has longed and prayed for.
This gentle young woman will hold the future in her arms and cradle the very Son of God close to her heart.

NARRATOR: The Lord Himself will give you a sign: a young woman who is pregnant will have a Son and will name Him Immanuel. Isaiah 7:14 (GNT)
God sent the angel Gabriel to a town in Galilee named Nazareth. He had a message for a young woman promised in marriage to a man named Joseph, who was a descendant of King David. Her name was Mary. The angel came to her and said, "Peace be with you! The Lord is with you and has greatly blessed you! You will become pregnant and give birth to a Son, and you will name Him Jesus. He will be great and will be called the Son of the Most High God. The Lord God will make Him a King, as His ancestor David was, and He will be the King of the descendants of Jacob forever; His kingdom will never end!"
"I am the Lord's servant," said Mary; "may it happen to me as you have said." And the angel left her. Luke 1:26-28,31-32,38 (GNT)
