Lyrics

For unto us a child is born

Unto us a son is given

Unto us a son is given

For unto us a child is born (For unto us a child is born)

Unto us a son is given

Unto us a son is given

For unto us a child is born (For unto us a child is born)

Unto us a son is given

Unto us a son is given

Unto us (Unto us), a son is given (A son is given)

And the government shall be upon his shoulder

And the government shall be upon his shoulder

And the government shall be upon his shoulder

And his name shall be called

Wonderful, counselor, the mighty God

The everlasting father, the prince of peace

Unto us a child is born (For unto us a child is born)

Unto us a son is given

Unto us a child is born (Unto us a son is given)

And the government shall be upon his shoulder

And the government shall be upon his shoulder

And his name (And his name), shall be called

Wonderful, counselor, the mighty God

The everlasting father, the prince of peace

Unto us a child is born (For unto us a child is born)

For unto us a child is born (For unto us a child is born)

Unto us a son is given

Unto us a son is given

And the government shall be, shall be upon his shoulder

And the government shall be, shall be upon his shoulder

And the government shall be upon his shoulder

And his name shall be called

Wonderful, counselor, the mighty God

The everlasting father, the prince of peace

Unto us a child is born (For unto us a child is born)

Unto us a son is given

Unto us a son is given

Unto us a son is given

And the government, the government shall be upon his shoulder

The government, the government shall be upon his shoulder

And his name shall be called

Wonderful, counselor, the mighty God

The everlasting father, the prince of peace

The everlasting father, the prince of peace
