[MELCHIOR]
How does a virgin girl from nowhere in sight
Become a mother just by deciding to close her eyes at night
And dream that Gabriel the angel said
God wanted to surprise her
For she'd be giving birth to the Messiah

[BALTHAZAR]
A man, Joseph, who'd be the father, but not the father
Had to think hard about if he could keep on [?]
Mary cheated on him, but as he was leaving he was met in a dream
Where Gabriel told him how Mary concieved

[GASPAR]
Then Ceaser's census came
And sent Joseph and Mary away
To Judea to the town where Joseph was brought up
Arriving there was no room in the inn
For them to stay there
The mother gave birth in the barn and laid the babe in the manger

[MELCHIOR]
Then angels filled the skies over shepherds in the night
And word made it to the wise men that led it to him to find
But Herod, the king, caught wind of the baby's birth
And sent his army to wipe him off the face of the Earth
[GASPAR]
The magi helped Joseph and Mary escape the genocide
Took the baby west off to Egypt 'til King Herod died
All of this was orchestrated for him to be saved
So the world could know his name
What's your name?

[JESUS CHRIST]
Jesus Christ of Nazareth
My name is Jesus Christ of Nazareth
I will show you all why I have come
But just you wait, just you wait

[GASPAR]
He grew up to perform signs and wonders
And proclaimed the truth
But he was rejected by the teachers of religious law
Sentenced to be murdered
By the very hands of those he came to save
But in three days he'll step out of the grave

[JESUS CHRIST]
Just you wait

[ENSEMBLE]
Jesus Christ of Nazareth (Jesus Christ of Nazareth)
We are waiting in the dark for you (Waiting in the dark for you)
When heaven came down and marked the very turn of time
Ohh, Jesus Christ of Nazareth (Jesus Christ of Nazareth)
All around [?] for you
Our hope is in your name
Into the world you came
The world will never be the same
Ohh, Jesus Christ of Nazareth
