Verse 1
Now the evening light was fading
But a star was shining bright
Through the window of a stable
In the silence of the night
When the hush was swiftly broken
By a newborn baby's cry
As the world slept on that bright and starlit night
Verse 2
Mary gave birth to a baby
Like an angel once had said
Then she laid Him in a manger
Where straw would be His bed
And she called her baby Jesus
The Son of the Most High
As the world slept on that bright and starlit night
Chorus
In a dark and lowly stable
With a manger for His bed
God's own Son Jesus Christ came among us
Underneath a starlit Heaven
In a town called Bethlehem
God's own Son Jesus Christ was born to us
