Verse 1
One night in tiny Bethlehem
The Heaven’s stars go by
As all the local people sleep
The angels filled the sky
Throughout your darkest corners
Shines the eternal Light
Through all those years, our hopes and fears
All met by you tonight
Chorus
That quiet night proved sacred
It opened up the door
A miracle had taken place
Like nothin' seen before
Our Savior born to die for sin
And souls to be restored
That baby boy had brought us peace
And joy forevermore
Verse 2
And in the arms of Mary
A babe from God above
The town’s asleep, while angels keep
Watch over God’s own Son
All heavenly hosts, together
Proclaim the holy birth
Rejoice and sing for Christ the King
Our peace has come to earth
Chorus
That quiet night proved sacred
It opened up the door
A miracle had taken place
Like nothin' seen before
Our Savior born to die for sin
And souls to be restored
That baby boy had brought us peace
And joy forevermore
Bridge
And quietly, so silently
God’s wondrous Gift is given!
The Spirit gives to human hearts
The blessings of His heaven
The world doubts His arrival
But in this world of sin
Meek souls and hearts receive Him still
Our Lord Christ enters in
Outro
Lord Jesus, Child of Bethlehem
Please come again, we pray
And put an end to all this sin
Re-shape our hearts today
Reminded by the Christmas bells
His joy to all to tell
Oh, come to us, and live with us
Our Lord Immanuel!
