This is the night
Of undying love,
Shining on us
From a star up above.
It is leading us, guiding us,
Showing the way
To the joy and the wonder of
The first Christmas Day.

Look up to the skies
This one night of the year,
And to believers
The angels appear.
The carols they sang
On this night long ago,
Still echo faintly
To those in the know.

At midnight the church bells
Ring out o'er the earth,
With wonder and joy
At the dear Saviors birth.
The lonely shepherd
With a finely tuned ear,
Will still hear the message
And cower with fear.

The beasts of the fields
Are blessed in the glow.
They gave up their shelter
For Him long ago.
Oh listen and see,
If you truly believe,
You'll find the pure joy
Of that first Christmas Eve.
