Once
upon a midnight clear, our Savior came very near
He
was born King of Kings, ruler over everything
God
incarnate, Son of Man, little babe, Great I Am
Resting
in a bed of hay, You will show us the way
Chorus:
We
praise You, You came so You could die for the sins of all mankind
We
praise You, You came so You could die for the sins of all mankind
You
set aside your royalty so You could give your life for me
Emmanuel,
God with us; In a child I place my
trust
Kings
and wise men from afar following a shining star
Now
we all bow before Him, the babe who’s born in Bethlehem
