| From the beginning the Father
|
| Had a magnificent plan
|
| Revealed through the law and the prophets
|
| To fulfill the redemption of man
|
| He spoke after centuries of silence
|
| In the midst of a still, starry night
|
| And Emmanuel came down among us
|
| And the Father said «Let there be light»
|
| Let there be light!
|
| Let it shine bright
|
| Piercing the darkness with dazzling white
|
| Hope for the hopeless was born on that night
|
| When God sent his Son
|
| And said «Let there be light»
|
| Let there be light! |
| Oh Yea Yea!
|
| People who walked in great darkness
|
| Gathered from near and afar
|
| Shepherds with flocks in their keeping
|
| Three kings who follow a star
|
| Together the poor and the richest
|
| Witness that Bethlehem night
|
| And the sky full of angels announcing
|
| The birth of a glorious light
|
| We who are His have this calling
|
| To praise Him, and make His name known
|
| So one day the presence of Jesus
|
| Shines in every heart and every home
|
| (Shines in our home)
|
| (Star of wonder, star of beauty bright) |
