The Light Of Christmas Day

Peter Mayer

Quiet night the darkness gathers
Shepherds and their flocks behold
O’er a world so torn and tattered
Shines the star of grace fortold
Gloria for joy we sing for
Jesus Christ the Light of Christmas Day

Lowly Lo the lamb Lo the prince of peace is coming
Glory O’er the land for
Jesus Christ the light of Christmas Day

Through the shadows of our longing
Comes the son of truth to save
Every hill and valley dawning
With the brightness of this Day
Gloria for joy we sing
For Jesus Christ the Light of Christmas Day

Lowly Lo the lamb Lo the prince of peace is coming
Glory O’er the land
Hear the song is coming, Morning Star is coming
Jesus Christ is coming this day

Lowly manger babe asleep
Promise in his hand

Out of night the dawn is breaking
O’er the hills of Bethlehem
From despair a world is waking
Barren earth will bloom again
Gloria for joy we sing
For Jesus Christ the Light of Christmas Day
Christmas Day
