Zechariah, ohh Zechariah and Elizabeth
Will have a baby boy
Zechariah lived a very good life
He loved the Lord and Elizabeth his wife
The pair were old and prayed for quite a while
But they could never have their own child
He was alone in the Temple one day
An Angel appeared with something to say
The Angel said, “Do not be afraid,
These are the plans that the Lord has made"
"Your prayers have been answered
Your wife will have a baby boy
He will get the people ready
Ready for the
Ready for The Lord"
"The Holy Spirit will be with your son
To clear the path for The Lord to come"
Zechariah was confused and asked
“How can I be so sure this will even happen to us?
My wife is old and after all these years
Could The Lord really make a child appear?
The Angel said “God has sent me to you
To bring the good news you’ll find is true"
"Your prayers have been answered
Your wife will have a baby boy
He will get the people ready
Ready for the
Ready for The Lord"
