Verse 1
See shepherds guarding sheep tonight
So suddenly aghast with fright
Astounded by celesti'al light
Alleluia
Verse 2
Hear angel's joyous voice proclaim
This blessed night the Savior came!
This world will never be the same.
Alleluia
(Refrain)
Alleluia, Alleluia,
Alleluia, Alleluia

O Morning Star for all to see
God's only son, how can this be?
He bears our burdens, sets us free.
Alleluia
Verse 4
What love required our Savior's birth?
This gift of God reveals our worth
Rejoice! He reconciles the Earth.
Alleluia
(Refrain)
Alleluia, Alleluia,
Alleluia, Alleluia

Christ, born to die, yet born to rise!
Gods precious Word to make us wise.
He saves our souls and heals our lives!
Alleluia

Immanuel, incarnate King!
There's nothing here that we can bring
Except ourselves, so let us sing.

(Refrain)
Alleluia, Alleluia,
