The Promise
The Lord God said when time was full
He would shine His light in the darkness
He said a virgin would conceive
And give birth to the Promise
For a thousand years the dreamers dreamt
And hoped to see His love
The Promise showed their wildest dreams
had simply not been wild enough
But the Promise showed their wildest dreams
Had simply not been wild enough
Chorus
The Promise was love and the Promise was life
The Promise meant light to the world
Living proof Jehovah saves
For the name of the Promise was Jesus
The Faithful One saw time was full
And the ancient pledge was honored
So God the Son, the Incarnate One
His final Word, His own Son
Was born in Bethlehem
But came into our hearts to live
What more could God have given
Tell me what more did He have to give
What more could God have given
Tell me what more did He have to give
Repeat Chorus
At last the proof Jehovah saves
For the name of the Promise was Jesus
A Promessa
O Senhor Deus disse quando o tempo se completou
Que Ele brilharia Sua luz na escuridão
Ele disse que uma virgem conceberia
E daria à luz a Promessa
Por mil anos os sonhadores sonharam
E esperaram ver Seu amor
A Promessa mostrou que seus sonhos mais loucos
Simplesmente não eram loucos o suficiente
Mas a Promessa mostrou que seus sonhos mais loucos
Simplesmente não eram loucos o suficiente
Refrão
A Promessa era amor e a Promessa era vida
A Promessa significava luz para o mundo
Prova viva que Jeová salva
Pois o nome da Promessa era Jesus
O Fiel viu que o tempo se completou
E a antiga promessa foi honrada
Então Deus, o Filho, o Encarnado
Sua palavra final, Seu próprio Filho
Nasceu em Belém
Mas veio aos nossos corações para viver
O que mais Deus poderia ter dado
Me diga, o que mais Ele tinha para dar
O que mais Deus poderia ter dado
Me diga, o que mais Ele tinha para dar
Repete o Refrão
Finalmente a prova que Jeová salva
Pois o nome da Promessa era Jesus
