Shepherds, amazed at the glorious sight, in haste sought the manger that night; But the light they had seen could not compare with the light of the Savior they found lying there.Come to this Light, holy Light, Dispelling the darkness within us: Radiance of God, Bright Morning Star, The Light of the world, this Jesus, the glorious Light of Christmas.Light, shining down from a radiant star was followed by wise men who came from afar, Seeking this Child who was born a King, their gifts and their worship to bring. And they found perfect light in Bethlehem: not the star, but Heaven's Light dwelling with men. You who've walked in the darkness, rejoice, break forth in song; for on you the Sun of Righteousness has dawned!Come to this Light, holy Light, Dispelling the darkness within us: Radiance of God, Bright Morning Star, The Light of the world, this Jesus, the glorious Light of Christmas. the glorious light of Christmas.
