Practice English Speaking&Listening with: Graham Kendrick - Earth Lies Spellbound from Rumours of Angels

Earth lies spellbound in darkness Sin's oppressive night

Yet in Bethlehem Hope is burning bright

Mysteries are unfolding But the only sign

Is a manger bed Where a baby cries

Wake up wake up it's Christmas morning Christ's eternal day is dawning

Angels sing in exultation Fill the streets with celebration

Now to God on high be glory To the earth proclaim the story

Ring the bells in jubilation Tell the news to every nation

Christ has come

Crowding stairways of starlight Choirs of angels sing

Glory glory to God In the highest heaven

Peace is stilling the violence Hope is rising high

God is watching us now Through a baby's eyes

Wake up wake up it's Christmas morning Christ's eternal day is dawning

Angels sing in exultation Fill the streets with celebration

Now to God on high be glory To the earth proclaim the story

Ring the bells in jubilation Tell the news to every nation

Christ has come

Weakness shatters the pow'rful Meekness shames the proud

Vain imaginings Come tumbling down

Ancient mercies remembered Hungry satisfied

Lowly humble hearts Are lifted high

Wake up wake up it's Christmas morning Christ's eternal day is dawning

Angels sing in exultation Fill the streets with celebration

Now to God on high be glory To the earth proclaim the story

Ring the bells in jubilation Tell the news to every nation

Christ has come

Wake up wake up it's Christmas morning Christ's eternal day is dawning

Angels sing in exultation Fill the streets with celebration

Now to God on high be glory To the earth proclaim the story

Ring the bells in jubilation Tell the news to every nation

Wake up, Wake up it's Christmas morning
