ON A DARK NIGHT
Shone a star bright
Over sleepy Bethlehem
Skies were ringing
Angels singing
Peace on earth, goodwill to men
See the baby in the manger
Born to save us from our sin
Hallelujah! What a Saviour!
This is Jesus Christ the King
Shepherds hasten
To the stable
Where the Holy infant lay
As the Wise men
From the East bring
Precious gifts to Mary’s babe
Can this baby in the manger
Really save us from our sin?
Hallelujah! What a Saviour!
This is Jesus Christ the King
Soon it will be Christmas morning
Cards and gifts around the tree
(But) Will you treasure? Will you worship?
Jesus born to set us free
And this baby in the manger
Died to save us from our sin
Hallelujah! What a Saviour!
Jesus Christ the King of kings
