Gabriel, How Can This Be? (with Niall O’Sullivan & John Manners) [Live] lyrics

[Verse 1]
Gabriel, how can this be?
Please, please explain to me
Mary, the power of God
Will overshadow you, fear not
You will bear a son
The holy and sacred one
His father rules above
Jesus be his name
Eternal be his reign

[Verse 2]
Joseph, where will we rest
Here in Bethlehem tonight
Mary, no rooms to let
And no one cares to help our plight
But over yonder see
A stable and manger free
And where at ease you’ll be
A star is shining bright
This will be our light

[Verse 3]
Joseph, what is that noise?
Baby Jesus sleeps still
Mary, the shepherd boys
Have run with bells from down the hill
And who they are I’ll ask
Please tell me your story lads
I wonder why so glad
Joseph, we’re just boys
Christ the Saviour’s born
[Chorus]
Joseph, we’re just boys
Christ the Saviour’s born
Angels us informed
Then they sang: “Fa la la la low fa la low fa la lay!”
Our new festival chime
Evermore sung at Christmas time
