All on a Wintry Night lyrics

All on a wintry night

A bright star was shining down

Upon the little town of Bethlehem

The shepherds in their fields

Were amazed at the sound

Of angels singing in Jerusalem

Three wise men made their way

Ever traveling night and day

With myrrh and frankincense and gifts of gold

And Mary, meek and mild

Labored with her firstborn child

And Joseph sheltered with them from the cold

The angels and the animals

Were kneeling to His glory

To praise the Son of God

Come once upon a time

The promised Prince of Peace

The babe in swaddling clothes

In his mothers arms did lie

Embraced within a lullaby of light

The angels sang on high

Their song of heaven bright

Redemption came upon that blessed night

The trembling voice of shepherds

The harp that played a melody

And Joseph knew among the straw

The glories of divinity

The promised Prince of Peace

Then let us sing his praise

The baby king of light

And make a place within our manger stall

His promise is renewed

Upon this Christmas night

For you, for me, for shepherd,

King, and all

The glory of this humble verse

Relieves us of our poverty

And we are rich in blessing

For He was made for you and me

The promised Prince of Peace

The promised Prince of Peace
