 Light Came Shining


When people went to bed that night

A new star shone its heav’nly light

Upon the quiet town

The light came shining down.


And in a humble cattle stall

Was born the one who’d save us all.

The mighty king, a babe

Into a manger laid.


The shepherds in a field nearby

Saw a glorious angel fly.

He’d come to share the joy

Of this precious baby boy.


Then Heav’nly hosts joined in and sang.

The fields with joyful music rang.

The shepherds ran to see,

And bowed upon their knee.


And then they told all who would hear

This news of happiness and cheer

Our Savior had been born!

There would be an Easter Morn!


Because of Him we’d live again.

We’d overcome the pull of sin.

He would lead us home

To Father and His throne.


Oh, it was a joyous day!

So with the shepherds we will say,

The Savior has been born.

There will be an Easter morn.


The Savior has been born,

And there has been an Easter morn!
