Starlight shines, the night is still
Shepherds watching from a hill
I close my eyes to see the night
When love was born
A Perfect child gently waits
A mother bends to kiss God's face
I close my eyes to see the night
When love was born
Angels fill the midnight sky and they sing
Hallelujah, He is Christ, our King
Emmanuel, Prince of peace
Love come down for you and me
Heaven's gift, the holy spark
To light the way inside our hearts
Bethlehem, through your small door
Came the hope we've waited for
The world was changed forevermore
When love was born
I close my eyes to see the night
When love was born
