T’was on a night so long ago,
That peace was born on earth.
Such wonders that day did you bestow,
By such a humble birth.
Dear Father this day to you I pray,
Sending all my thanks above.
For what you did that glorious day,
And your awesome gift of love.
For all the beauty that your have shared,
With those of us below.
All the magnificence you have prepared,
Such glory all aglow.
Prayers of thanks for everything,
That You have done for us.
Your goodness is addicting,
Your Holy Name I bless.
