Verse 1: A baby lies in his mother?s arms
A winter snow falls from the stars
A mother smiles as she looks to the sky
And says Oh how lucky am I
Chorus 1: An angel here to save us
A baby born to love us
A saviour born to give us light
On this beautiful night
Verse 2: A shepherd enters from the cold
A wise man?s gift a box of gold
A father looks at his son and smiles
And thinks Oh how lucky am I
Chorus 2: An angel here to save us
A baby born to love us
A saviour born to give us light
An angel here to save us
A baby born to love us
A saviour born to give us light
On this beautiful night
On this beautiful night
