Earth lies spellbound in darkness
Sin's oppressive night
Yet in Bethlehem
Hope is burning bright
Mysteries are unfolding
But the only sign
Is a manger bed
Where a baby cries
Wake up wake up it's Christmas morning
Christ's eternal day is dawning
Angels sing in exultation
Fill the streets with celebration
Now to God on high be glory
To the earth proclaim the story
Ring the bells in jubilation
Tell the news to every nation
Christ has come
Crowding stairways of starlight
Choirs of angels sing
Glory glory to God
In the highest heaven
Peace is stilling the violence
Hope is rising high
God is watching us now
Through a baby's eyes
Weakness shatters the pow'rful
Meekness shames the proud
Vain imaginings
Come tumbling down
Ancient mercies remembered
Hungry satisfied
Lowly humble hearts
Are lifted high
