Soft it comes, gift of night,
Star of Christmas love, so bright;
Joy and peace fill the earth
With Christmas love in Jesus birth.

Born a king long ago,
Gentle as the sifting snow;
Still our hearts know the wonder
Love made flesh in God's own son. 

And still the homeless wander;
the hungry cry for bread. 
Old hatred flares anew:
Where will we find our Prince of Peace?

Shepherds kneel, kings bow down,
All our world is Beth'lem town.
Blest is he who comes in Glory
Bringing Christmas love once more.
