(Introduction)

(Verse 1)

Cold winds blew and the angels knew
That in a manger would come a stranger
To save both me and you.

Born to man according to God's plan
This child would reach us and try to teach us
How to understand.

And who was born on this special mornin'?

Jesus!

In Him is Light, so leave the dark behind.

We were shown through those that He had known
What we should strive for, He gave His life for,
So He could take His throne.

(Short Solo)

(Verse 2)

On this day, cradled in the hay,
The world was waiting, anticipating
One to show The Way.

Mary knew before His life was through
He would be questioned, for He was destined
To start our lives anew.

And who was born on this special mornin'?

Jesus!

In Him is Light, so leave the dark behind.

We receive through fulfilled prophecy
Divine forgiving, abundant living
Eternal liberty.
