john tavener - today the virgin lyrics

Loading...

today the virgin comes to the cave
to give birth to the word eternal:
rejoice, o world
with the angels and the shepherds
give glory to the child!
alleluia!

mary my wife, o mary my wife!
what do i see?
i took you blameless before the lord
from the priests of the temple
what do i see?

rejoice, o world
with the angels and the shepherds
give glory to the child!
alleluia!

joseph the bridegroom
o joseph the bridegroom!
do not fear
god in his mercy has come down to earth
he takes flesh in my womb
for all the world to see

mary, my bride, o mary my bride
what do i see?
you, a virgin giving birth
strange mystery!

warned by the angel we believe
that mary gives birth inexplicable
to the infant, christ, our god
