When love was born
Starlight shines, the night is still;
shepherds watch from a hill.
I close my eyes and see
the night when love was born.
Perfect Child gently wakes;
a mother bends to kiss God’s face.
I close my eyes and see
the night when love was born.
Angels fill the midnight sky and they sing,
“Hallellujah! He is Christ our King!”
Emmanuel, Price of Peace,
love came down for you and me.
Heaven’s gift, a holy spark to light the way inside our hearts.
Bethlehem, through your small door came the hope we waited for.
The world was changed forevermore when love was born.
