One quiet night in Bethlehem,
One rough and lonely manger bed.
One star as bright as breaking day,
One Baby nestled in the hay.

Sing out with joy on Christmas morn.
Ring out the bells and sound the horn.
A Savior is born, a Savior born!

One burst of angels from on high,
One humble prayer from shepherds nigh.
One dream for magi of their King,
One Babe to end all suffering.

Sing out with joy on Christmas morn.
Ring out the bells and sound the horn.
A Savior is born, a Savior born!

One miracle to save mankind,
One shining Hope for all to find.
One healing hand to ease the pain,
One life to give; our lives to gain.

Sing out with joy on Christmas morn.
Ring out the bells and sound the horn.
A Savior is born, a Savior born!
