"Arrive" lyrics
Original Cast Of His Story The Musical Lyrics
(performed by Ali Louis Bourzgui & Anna Miriam Brown)
(from "His Story The Musical" soundtrack)
[MARY:]
The time is coming soon my dear
[JOSEPH:]
I'll get you safe real soon I swear
Just hold on
[MARY & JOSEPH:]
Hold on to my hand
[MARY:]
There's a town over that hill
[JOSEPH:]
Take my fleece, this evening chills
If you cannot stand
[MARY & JOSEPH:]
Hold on to my hand
[MARY:]
Ohh..
[JOSEPH:]
There's an inn I'll be right back
The owner says the inn is packed
Hold on if you're able I know of a stable
Where I could lay you in the hay
I know that it's no luxury
[MARY:]
I hope you know it's enough for me
Just stay close, Joe, stay nearby
I think it's time for this baby to arrive
Then You arrive in my eyes for the first time
For the first time, I wanna hold You close to me
[JOSEPH:]
Yes You arrive in my eyes for the first time
For the first time, we meet eyes I can barely speak
[MARY & JOSEPH:]
As You arrive in our life for the first time
For the first time
We see greatness lie in Your eyes
And this is what we will sing
‘Cause this is only the beginning
When You arrive in Your life for the first time
I will watch You take flight for the first time
I will be there by Your side for the whole time
For the whole time and for the first time
[JOSEPH:]
And I hold Him without any hesitation
[MARY:]
In this moment, we get a revelation
[MARY & JOSEPH:]
This Child we're holding
Could be our salvation
Be our salvation
[MARY:]
His time is coming soon my dear
[JOSEPH:]
He's growing up too soon I swear
[MARY & JOSEPH:]
Astonishing the scholars
Talkin' like His Father
Making our world look much smaller
As He lights His flare
Twelve, Sixteen, Twenty-one
I can't believe that that's our Son
Like a flame
Incredibly close to a grenade
The Holy Ghost will show
And blow the world away!
He will arrive, like a light in the nighttime
At the right time, the world will see the Son rise
When He arrives, All's alright for the first time
For the first time, sin's pollution
You're the breath of life
You will arrive in Your life for the first time
For the first time
They'll see greatness lie in Your eyes
And this is what we will sing
‘Cause this is only the beginning
This is only the beginning
This is only the beginning
Til' You arrive
The time is coming soon my dear
[JOSEPH:]
I'll get you safe real soon I swear
Just hold on
[MARY & JOSEPH:]
Hold on to my hand
[MARY:]
There's a town over that hill
[JOSEPH:]
Take my fleece, this evening chills
If you cannot stand
[MARY & JOSEPH:]
Hold on to my hand
[MARY:]
