The people were sleeping unaware of the night,
When the beauty of that moment came near.
The shepherds were watching, they saw a great light
And the voice of the angel was clear.
I bring you good news, and I bring you great joy, come now, do not fear.
In the city of David , your Savior is born, Christ the Lord, He is here!
Chorus
Glory to God, hear the angel’s glad tidings,
Peace on the earth, there is joy in that sound.
Goodwill to all men, as they throw off their sadness,
The child has been born down in Bethlehem town,
Give glory, give glory to God!
It’s the season of giving, the season of song,
The season of gathering around.
A time to remember and a time to move on,
And echo that heavenly sound.
It’s the sound of His love calling to you, come now, do not fear!
Open your heart, your Savior is born, Christ, the Lord He is here.
