So many centuries of watching and waiting , but when the moment came, well nobody saw

Ok... said I'd get the words, but coz I knew who it was by it took anly a few seconds, so I've just changed my message! I've sang it a few times, and love it! loll



So many centuries of watching and waiting
But when the moment came well nobody saw
Traders and travellers hurried by
And life went on just like before
Just like before
In all the clamour just a new baby crying
One more poor family shut out in the cold
Nothing unusual sad to say
Hasn't it always been this way?

But nothing will ever be the same again
This night has changed everything
Nothing will ever be the same again
Since the night he came

So rare we recognise our history in the making
Meet angels unawares and pass on our way
Blind to the moment of destiny
While precious years just slip away, slip away

And now a door is standing open before you
Casting its light into the darkness around
Stop for a moment, step inside
Tonight could be your Bethlehem

And nothing will ever be the same again
This night could change everything
Nothing will ever be the same again
Since the night he came

A child is born a Son is given
And his Kingdom of peace will never end
A child is born a Son is given
And his Kingdom of peace will never end
Never end, No!

And nothing will ever be the same again
This night could change everything
Nothing will ever be the same again
Since the night he came

I will have the music at home, if you would like to buy it it is from the Rumours of Angels booklet, all songs by Graham. Should be available to order form the net, or also from Christian bookshops, but if you can't find it let me know, and I can try to get one for you. The cd also uses some very nice harmonies if my memory serves me well.

Take care
