The Night Before Christmas Lyrics

Empty manger, perfect stranger about to be born

Into darkness, sadness, desperate madness, creation so torn

We were so lost on earth, no peace, no worth, no way to escape

In fear, no faith, no hope no grace, and no light,

But that was the night before Christmas

Warm hay, cold sweat, a mother, not yet.
Praying godspeed the dawn

She looks to her man, holding her hand.
They wonder how long.

And the shepherds, wise men come to find them, and bow to a king.

One star above shining on love, so bright it lit up the night before Christmas.

And the world didn't know, mercy meek and so mild.

And the world didn't know that truth was as pure as a child.

The night before Christmas. [2x]

[INSTRUMENTAL]

And the world didn't know, redemption was sweet and so strong.

And the world didn't know salvation was writing a song.

The night before Christmas. [3x]

Empty manger, perfect stranger about to be born.
