The
people walking in darkness have seen a great light.
On
those living in the land of the shadow of death, a light
has
dawned. You have shattered the yoke that burdens them,
the
bar across their shoulders, the rod of the oppressor.
Every
warriors boot used in battle and every garment rolled
in
blood will be destined for burning, will be fuel for the fire.
For
to us a child is born, to us a son is given. And he will be
called
Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father,
Prince
of Peace. Of the greatness of his rule and peace,
