The Prince of Peace (A Child Was Born)

One cold and starry night,
In Bethlehem
A child was born, a child was born
Two simple people cried in pride and joy,
A child was born, a baby boy.
How could they know?
How could they see?
That little child would grow, someday to be
The Prince (Joy to the World) of Peace
Oh (Joy to the World)
Oh (Joy to the World)

The road to Damascus was crowded that night
With chariots, camels, Arabian stallions and caravans.
Look! Silks, swords, flowers and spices, jewels and chains.
Flights of angels, singing of hope and joy, the city of David,
A Savior, a baby boy, was born that night to return again
For peace on earth and good will to all men!
To all men
The Prince of Peace
The Prince of Peace

Two simple people cried in pride and joy,

How could they see?
That little child would grow, someday to be
The Prince (Joy to the World) of Peace
Oh (Joy to the World)
Oh (Joy to the World)
The Prince of Peace
