Any moment it could happen / He knew it was time by the look in her eyes / There was Joseph / Holding Mary / In this stable they wait / For this babe to arrive / In a world so dark / Heaven and Earth would collide / And would change who they are / As she laid him in a manger / Creation was hushed by the sound of His cry / And their eyes were filled with wonder / Could this be the same voice that brought us to life / Unbelievable / The promise is this little child / What a miracle // (Chorus) This was the first time / Mortal eyes would see the Savior / The first night / Heaven sings a song with nature / Alleluia / Alleluia / The world has seen the light / For the first time // As she rocks Him on her shoulder / Did she know it was only a matter of time / That one day when He is older / He will open His arms and give up His life / But tonight He sleeps / As angels sing through the night / Of His majesty // (Chorus) // Glory to God in the highest / Peace on earth / Glory to God in the highest / Peace on earth / Alleluia / Alleluia / Alleluia / Alleluia / This was the first time / This was the first night // (Chorus)
