Child in the Night
1.Darkness descends in the coldness of winter.
Dusk chases light from the dawn.
Voices on high break the grasp of the silence.
Angels proclaim Him in Song!
It’s the Glory of Birth, it’s the song of creation,
It’s the Promise of Night turned to Day.
It’s the splendor of Life in the face of a Child,
Lying Peacefully warmed by the hay.
- Child in the night gives us reason for living,
The path to salvation is shown.
Peace on the Earth is the promise that’s given.
Guiding His people back Home.
See the Star in the ski light the way in our darkness,
See the Mountains and Valleys laid low.
Hear the songs in the wind, carried forth by the promise.
Hear the Words that tell which way to go.
- Hope for our hearts is the gift that is given.
Peace is the path that is shown.
Love of a Child with all failings forgiven.
Guiding His Children back Home.

Surely the presence of the Lord is in this place.
I can feel his mighty power and his grace.
I can hear the brush of angel’s wings.
I see the glory on each face.
Surely the presence of the Lord is in this place.
