When the Son of God Was Born
In the darkness o'er Judea
In the silence of the night
As Bethlehem lay dreaming
'Neath the still and starry skies
Holy angels came rejoicing
Bright with glory like the dawn
And set the heavens singing
When the Son of God was born
In the darkness o'er Judea
Newly kindled o'er the earth
A wondrous star was gleaming
To proclaim Messiah's birth
And as wise men came a-seeking
Heaven's light went on before
And set their hearts a-singing
When the Son of God was born
In the shadows of a stable
In a manger, sweet with hay
The Holy Child lay sleeping
E'er the coming of the day
And the light of love descending
'Round the cradle of the Lord
Set the world a-singing
When the Son of God was born
In the silence of the night
As Bethlehem lay dreaming
'Neath the still and starry skies
Holy angels came rejoicing
Bright with glory like the dawn
And set the heavens singing
When the Son of God was born
In the darkness o'er Judea
Newly kindled o'er the earth
A wondrous star was gleaming
To proclaim Messiah's birth
And as wise men came a-seeking
Heaven's light went on before
And set their hearts a-singing
When the Son of God was born
In the shadows of a stable
In a manger, sweet with hay
The Holy Child lay sleeping
E'er the coming of the day
And the light of love descending
'Round the cradle of the Lord
Set the world a-singing
When the Son of God was born
