The Spirit of This Holy Night

Oh, holy night, a starry sky, Bethlehem's humble town A manger bed, a babe laid there, love's light came shining down Mary whispers lullabies, Joseph stands with watchful eye Angels sing of hope and peace, a promise in the by and by Oh, holy night, a sacred birth, a gift beyond compare The Christ child brings a message clear, of love and peace to share Let war and hatred cease to be, let kindness fill the air For in this babe, we hope to see, a world where all can care Shepherds kneel in reverence deep, wise men follow from afar Guided by a star so bright, a light that leads them near and far The humble stable, filled with grace, a king is born in such a place A reminder that true worth we find, not in riches, but in grace Oh, holy night, a sacred birth, a gift beyond compare The Christ child brings a message clear, of love and peace to share Let war and hatred cease to be, let kindness fill the air For in this babe, we hope to see, a world where all can care The spirit of this holy night, transcends the years, it calls to us To mend the broken, heal the lost, to love with hearts that truly trust In one another, hand in hand, with faith to light the way May peace on Earth forever stand, a brighter, better day Oh, holy night, a sacred birth, a gift beyond compare The Christ child brings a message clear, of love and peace to share Let war and hatred cease to be, let kindness fill the air For in this babe, we hope to see, a world where all can care Let every heart embrace the light, that shines on Christmas morn Let love and peace take flight tonight, and hope for a world reborn
