On Christmas Night 5 Lyrics

1. On Christmas night true Christians sing
To hear what news the angel bring
News of great joy, cause of great mirth
Good tidings of the Saviour's birth
Good tidings of the Saviour's birth
The King of kings to us is given,
The Lord of earth and King of heaven;
Angels and men with joy may sing,
To see and bless this newborn King,
To see and bless this newborn King.

2. Angels with joy sing in the air,
No music may with theirs compare;
While prisoners in their chains rejoice
To hear the echoes of that voice.
To hear the echoes of that voice.
So now on earth can men be sad,
When Jesus comes to make us glad;
From sin and hell to set us free,
And buy for us our liberty
And buy for us our liberty.

3. Let sin depart, while we His grace,
And glory see in Jesus' face;
For so shall we sure comforts find
When thus this day we bear in mind.
When thus this day we bear in mind.
And from the darkness we have light,
Which makes the Angels sing this night:
"Glory to God, His peace to men,
Both now and evermore.
Both now and evermore." Amen.
