Josh Jones - This Is the Day (Te Rangimarie) Lyrics

Aotearoa Christmas calling
In the bonds of love we meet
For the world a Christmas dawning
And shines a light to greet

We're singing
This is the day when the hope was calling
This is the day when the light did shine
This is the day when the world can sing Te rangimarie

Can you hear the cry for the wounds to be healed
And can you hear the call for this light to reveal
Oh a vision of hope, and peace for the tears in our hearts
I'm saying this day's the day for a brand-new start

We're singing
This is the day when the hope was calling
This is the day when the light did shine
This is the day when the world can sing Te Rangimarie

Can you hear the cry from the hearts to be free
Yes and, can hear the call of the prophets who see
Where justice and mercy and peace are the songs in our heart
The joy that this day's the day for a brand-new start

We're singing
This is the day when the hope was calling
This is the day when the light did shine
This is the day when the world can sing Te Rangimarie
Aotearoa Christ bring Te Rangimarie

Aotearoa Christmas calling
In the bonds of love we meet
For the world a Christmas dawning
And shines a light to greet
