One starry night, so bright
The world was filled with love
A wonderful sight, the light
That shined from up above
The angels proclaimed His Holy name
King of Kings

This is the story, the power and the glory
Three wise men knelt to pray
A guiding star had led the way
And there He lay, born on Christmas Day

Joy did He bring, the King
Let every song rejoice
And every heart did sing, hear it ring
The sound of heaven's voice

The angels proclaimed His Holy name
King of Kings

This is the story, the power and the glory
Three wise men knelt to pray
A guiding star had led the way
And there He lay, born on Christmas Day

He fills our world with His love
Heavenly voice sang from above

This is the story, the power and the glory
Three wise men knelt to pray
A guiding star had led the way
And there He lay, born on Christmas Day

This is the story, the power and the glory
Three wise men knelt to pray, as He lay
Yes, Christ was born, born on Christmas Day
Oh, they came to pray, where he lay
Born on Christmas day
