(Isaiah 9:6 KJV) This song weaves Isaiah's well-loved verse into a modern lyric, keeping the verse intact and in order, though omitting "and the government shall be upon his shoulder." I figured only Handel can do justice to that phrase. My apologies... "called" is only one syllable in this selection--I'm sure many a choir member will try to make it two. :) Lyrics: Unto us on this holy night Unto us beneath a new star's light Unto us where the lambs have fed Gently laid in a manger bed Unto us a child is born Unto us a son is given Chorus: And his name shall be called Wonderful For the world will be healed by his power He will be our unfailing Counselor In each uncertain hour The Mighty God of heaven above So meekly comes to earth The Everlasting Father This child of lowly birth Tell his name, sing his praise in all the world Till all the world believes Till every voice is lifted up To praise the Prince of Peace Unto us 'mid the angel song Unto us, the gift awaited long Unto us wrapped in swaddling bands Hushed to sleep at the Virgin's hands Unto us a child is born Unto us a son is given (Repeat chorus)
