In dark of night, the Angel came
Standing on the empty air
In Its eyes were sparks of flame
Its open wings with light did flare.
"Listen Joseph! Do not fear!"
The voice with quiet thunder sighed;
"Through Mary will the Lord draw near
In her God's power can't be denied."
"Now take her for your own", he said
"And know that God remains with you
Cherish her and raise the child
You know this is what you must do."
As Jesus grew and laughed and cried,
Good Joseph remained faithful, too;
Mary staying by his side
"And know that God remains with you!"
