Those who walk in darkness will see a great light.
His name is Wonderful, Counselor, God of Might,
Eternal Father, and Prince of Peace.
He will be worshiped on bended knee.
God's only son about to be born
Celebrated this bright Christmas morn
.

The angel told Mary "Do not be afraid.
You are with child. Jesus is his name."
In those days of Augustus a decree went out
For the number of citizens to be found.
So Joseph and Mary went to Bethlehem,
But the inn they went to had no room for them.

During the night Mary gave birth
While shepherds were startled, hearing "Peace on Earth."
From an angel multitude of the heavenly host.
"Your Savior is in David town. Go now! Leave your post!"
The shepherds ran down the hills and into the town
To see Christ Jesus, Kings of Kings, with no crown.

They left and told all that had been seen and heard;
The first pastors to go out preaching the Word.
Now we, also simple, are called to do the same
Bringing glory and honor and praise to His name.

Isaiah 9:2, Luke 2:1-20
