In a land of wonder and beauty rare,
Where the sun kissed the earth with golden flare,
Lived a humble woman, Mary by name,
Her heart pure as the snow on the mountain's frame.
(Chorus)
African Noel, African Noel,
Sing Hallelujah, let our voices swell.
In the heart of Africa, a song takes flight,
As we celebrate this Holy Night.
(Verse 2)
In a lowly stable, a miracle took place,
A chosen Child born with the grace,
Mary's arms enveloped Him with love,
A precious gift from heaven above.
(Chorus)
African Noel, African Noel,
Sing Hallelujah, let our voices swell.
In the heart of Africa, a song takes flight,
As we celebrate this Holy Night.
(Verse 3)
The shepherds left their flocks in haste,
Guided by the star that shone so chaste,
They found the Christ Child, wrapped in swaddling,
A light of peace in the world's unraveling.
(Bridge)
Like the wise men from afar, we come,
Bringing gifts of love, joy, and some,
To lay at the feet of the newborn King,
Our tribute to His wondrous spring.
(Verse 4)
Let the rhythm of African drums beat,
A joyous chorus for this sacred meet,
Together we dance with faith so strong,
Lifting up our voices in a joyful song.
(Chorus)
African Noel, African Noel,
Sing Hallelujah, let our voices swell.
In the heart of Africa, a song takes flight,
As we celebrate this Holy Night.
(Outro)
Across the savannah, deserts wide,
May the spirit of Christmas reside,
From tribe to tribe, a message pure,
Love's radiant beacon we will surely endure.
