Good News - Avalon

Good news, good news

An angel brings good news

Good news, good news

I meet you with good news

Close your eyes fold your hands

For a moment let your sorrow fade

Why? Oh, why are you afraid?

Has this world stripped you of your faith?

Close your eyes and on bended knee

Listen to an angel pray

And once again prepare the way

So you’ll see a gift that’s given

For you a time of joy, behold a baby boy

Good news, good news

An angel brings good news

Good news, good news

I meet you with good news

Bow your head, speak not a word

Let the silence take you far from here

The spirit of a child dry every tear

And may your doubts, they disappear

Bow your head and on bended knee

Hear the story once again

The child grew up to wear a cross

A child grew up to pledge a life

For us a time of joy, behold, Christ a baby boy

Good news, good news

An angel brings good news

Good news, good news

I meet you with good news

For us is born this night

In a manger wrapped in swaddling clothes

Christ the Saviour, Christmas day

All our burdens washed away

We break the bread

We pour the wine

And angels descend

With a heavenly sigh

Good news, good news

An angel brings good news

Good news, good news

I meet you with

I leave you with good news
