The Birthday Of A King / O Holy Night
In the little village of Bethlehem
There lay a Child one day
And the sky was bright with holy light
O'er the place where Jesus lay
Alleluia! O how the angels sang
Alleluia! How it rang!
And the sky was bright
With God's holy light
'Twas the birthday of a King
'Twas a humble birthplace, but oh how much
God gave to us that day
From the manger bed what a path has led
What a perfect holy way
Alleluia! O how the angels sang
Alleluia! How it rang!
And the sky was bright
With God's holy light
'Twas the birthday of a King
O holy night
The stars are brightly shining
It is the night of the dear Savior's birth
Long lay the world
In sin and error pining
'Til He appeared and the soul felt its worth
A thrill of hope the weary world rejoices
For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn!
Fall on your knees!
O hear the angel voices
O night divine!
O night when Christ was born
O night divine!
O night, O night divine!
Alleluia! O how the angels sang
Alleluia! How it rang!
And the sky was bright
With God's holy light
'Twas the birthday of the King
'Twas the birthday of a King
