Lyrics
In the darkness of the night
A baby boy was born
And in his mother's loving arms
He rested safe and warm
Although this baby was a king
No palace was for him
Only a stable for a house
No bed to lay him in.
Come let us sing a song of love come down,
of joy revealed to all the earth,
The Son of God has come, a child is born
And we will sing and celebrate this day
With overflowing hearts, we'll honour him
Give praises to our Lord and King.
God's gift of love and grace for all the earth,
We will celebrate this Christmas time
In the darkness of the night
A bright light filled the skies,
And shepherds on a lonely hill
Could not believe their eyes
A thousand angels praising God
Declaring the good news,
"The Christ is born in Bethlehem"
And mankind's hope renews
Come let us sing a song of love come down,
of joy revealed to all the earth,
The Son of God has come, a child is born
And we will sing and celebrate this day
With overflowing hearts, we'll honour him
Give praises to our Lord and King.
God's gift of love and grace for all the earth,
We will celebrate this Christmas time
In the darkness of the night
A new star shone so bright
And wise men in the east looked up
and saw it's guiding light
They journeyed from their distant land
To find the new born king
and they arrived in Bethlehem
With precious gifts for him
Come let us sing a song of love come down,
of joy revealed to all the earth,
The Son of God has come, a child is born
And we will sing and celebrate this day
With overflowing hearts, we'll honour him
Give praises to our Lord and King.
God's gift of love and grace for all the earth,
We will celebrate this Christmas time
In the brightness of this day
We will remember him
This precious child, this King of kings
who came to conquer sin.
He came to show what God is like
And bring us back to him.
He came that we might have new life
And always be with him
Come let us sing a song of love come down,
of joy revealed to all the earth,
The Son of God has come, a child is born
And we will sing and celebrate this day
With overflowing hearts, we'll honour him
Give praises to our Lord and King.
God's gift of love and grace for all the earth,
We will celebrate this Christmas time
