This song by Huub Oosterhuis is based on Isaiah 9: 1-6. Hear how the text and music complement each other in a wonderful way. It is as if you can hear the footsteps, feel the yoke of slavery on your own shoulders. But you also hear how the light breaks through, the sun starts to shine and a whole new time dawns. Christmas: The people who walk in darkness will see a great light. They will laugh and rejoice. As on the day of harvest. The yoke of slavery that weighed us down, the bar on our shoulders, the rod with which we are beaten, he will break in pieces on his day. For a child is born to us!
