When I think upon Christmas Words can't express How our Father in heaven Has sent us His best To be born in a manger The King in the hay And creation will worship His name For the joy of the world He was born Bringing peace to us all Through the gift of the Son Now the darkest of ages are done For the Savior of heaven has come ♪ When I think upon Jesus The King of all days I can't help but respond With an offering of praise Like the wise men and shepherds I'll follow Your light Like the angels I'll lift Your name high For the joy of the world You were born Bringing peace to us all Through the gift of Your love Now the darkest of ages are done For the Savior of heaven has come ♪ For the joy of the world You were born Bringing peace to us all Through the gift of Your love Now the darkest of ages are done For the Savior of heaven has come
Now I look back in reverence To that holy night For the God of the heavens Had us on His mind Let us sing of His glory Rejoice in His name Oh, Emmanuel, with us always And forever His Kingdom will reign
