(Narration begins in measure 58 of O Come, O Come, Emmanuel)
The chronicle of the birth of Jesus is a portrait of love beyond measure,
miracles beyond imagination, and sacrifice beyond reason.
The centuries of silence and of prayers were prelude to fulfilled promises.
Though His coming is long expected, it almost goes unnoticed, almost.
So, let us come together and speak of prophets and sages, of angels and
stars, of wise men and shepherds.
For the good news has come! God's unspeakable gift is born in Bethlehem—born
to show us the Father's love, born to set us free! In one eternal instant the world
changes forever.
The prophets' voices would not be stilled nor could they be forgotten.
Their message rang in the echoes of ancient thunder.
Listen, it's the voice of someone shouting! "Prepare the way of the Lord."
At last, He has come!
At last, He dwells among us.
At last—Noel!
