1 Come and sing the Christmas story
this holy night!
Christ is born: the hope of glory
dawns on our sight.
Alleluia! earth is ringing
with a thousand angels singing —
hear the message they are bringing
this holy night.

2 Jesus, Saviour, child of Mary
this holy night,
in a world confused and weary
You are our light.
God is in a manger lying,
manhood taking, self denying,
life embracing, death defying
this holy night.

3 Lord of all! Let us acclaim Him
this holy night;
king of our salvation name Him,
throned in the height.
Son of Man — let us adore Him,
all the earth is waiting for Him;
Son of God — we bow before Him
this holy night.
