Au père des croyants, il avait fait promesse De mettre enfin le terme aux jours de la détresse. 4 Et toi, petit enfant, tu viens en précurseur Pour frayer le chemin à ce libérateur. Tu dois le précéder comme un dernier prophète, Pour annoncer aux siens l’amour qui les rachète. 5 Celui qui doit venir, c’est lui, le Rédempteur Qui donne le pardon, qui sauve les pécheurs. Dieu fait paraître en lui la grâce qu’il accorde Et le soleil levant de sa miséricorde. 6 Les peuples qui marchaient dans l’ombre de la mort, En ce matin nouveau verront changer leur sort, Car l’envoyé de Dieu, dans sa bonté suprême, Au chemin de la paix nous conduira lui-même.
