The Night Jesus Was Born
On this night, Christmas Eve, Jesus was born
Bringing eternal life to you and me, this Son
Of the One who created the light in the morn
He awakens our hearts from the hurts they mourn
Giving renewed hope to the ones we might shun
On this night, Christmas Eve, Jesus was born
He reminds us all that He was battered and torn
So that this race we have run would finally be won
We have the victory today because we’ve been reborn
It is for our faith in Jesus that we blow our horn
Breathing grace into this place where love has begun
On this night, Christmas Eve, Jesus was born
For our final victory, He endured the Cross and scorn
Allowing the joy, hope and faith to win in the long run
Giving us love that lasts forever for our hearts to adorn
Applying the success of the Cross for which we’ve sworn
To love with hearts that shine Jesus’ light to everyone
On this night, Christmas Eve, Jesus was born
This is our Christ so there is no need to be forlorn
