On a night so long ago
|
By the light of one bright star
|
Two weary travelers far from Galilee
|
Took refuge in a stable
|
Where a little child was born
|
To bring the gift of love, to you and me
|
When the angels told the shepherds of His birth
|
There came a great rejoicing on the earth.
|
|
Chorus:
|
And they sang, glory to God in the highest
|
Dawning that first Christmas morn
|
Peace on earth and tidings of great joy
|
For unto you this night a child is born.
|
|
And, lo, these many years since then
|
That ancient star still guides us
|
And now again our Christmas voices ring
|
Blessed we are and safe at home
|
With loved ones her beside us
|
And in the still and silent night we sing
|
How the angels told the shepherds of his birth
|
And there came a great rejoicing on the earth
|
|
Repeat Chorus.
|
