From the cave You came to us, David’s descendent, of the Holy Ghost.
An angel appeared, “Joseph, she’s with holy child; Immanuel’s here!â€
The magi saw Your star, it guided them to You bearing precious gifts.
From the cave You came to us; the way was prepared by Your messenger.
John the Baptist preached, a voice in the wilderness: “Repent, be baptized!
“A man greater than I, a mere unworthy slave, will baptize with fire!â€
From the cave You came to us; Gabriel heralds hope for tomorrow.
Holy Mary sang, “My spirit praises the Lord, my soul rejoices!â€
Angels and stars lit the way, shepherds and kings haste to worship You, Christ.
From the cave You came to us; both the Word with God and the Word of God.
All in all; through Him You created everything in the beginning.
Your Word gave life to all the creation. Your Life brought eternal Light.
The Word became flesh full of grace and truth; we became Your redeemed heirs.
Risen Messiah, the cave could not contain You.
