Gaudete! (David Haas)

Gaudete, Gaudete!
Christus est natus ex Maria Virgine!
Gaudete!  (bis)

This is now the time of grace that we all desire!
Let us sing our songs of joy filled with blazing fire!

Refrain

Wonder of all Wonders, Word made flesh among us --
Jesus Christ renews the world, nature sings its chorus!

Refrain

Now the gates are opened, birth comes with elation --
Here we see the light is born, gleaming with salvation!

Refrain

Here now in this time and place justice finds its voicing --
Music raised to praise our God, greetings and rejoicing!


Refrain
