Lyrics

VERSE 1

The world was locked in holy silence; night time gently swept the day
Sheltered in a humble manger, joy and peace brought forth in pain

Eternal God came down from Heaven, history forever torn
Announced by prophets long before this, Unto us a child is born

VERSE 2

Shepherds stood in folded darkness, watching flocks to keep them near
A piercing light from heaven found them, Angels filled their hearts with fear

Do not fear the Angel told them, Peace on Earth, good will to men
Announced by Angels to the shepherds, Unto to you a child is sent

BRIDGE

Into the darkness came the light, To give the world a gift that night
Some reject it, some respect it, some accept it in their lives

Born a King, He was adorned, Wise men's gifts from distant shores
A Simple story proclaiming glory, Unto us a child is born TAG

VERSE 3

The shepherds left their lambs behind them, went to see the Lamb of God
In the bliss before the sunrise, stood before this babe in awe

Praise and glory as they shouted telling of the news they bring
Announced by Shepherds to all people, Unto us the King of Kings


REPEAT BRIDGE --- TAG
