In towns and villages
In tower blocks and terraces
Christ is waiting to be born

In palaces and shanty-towns
In high streets and back-streets
Christ is waiting to be born

In the vastness of the universe
In the intimacy of our hearts
Christ is waiting to be born

Come, Lord Jesus
Come into our homes
Come into our lives
Come and stay
