when love was born

starlight shines, the night is still, shepherds watch from a hill, i close my eyes, see the night, when love was born, perfect child gently waits, a mother bends to kiss god's face, i close my eyes, see the night, when love was born, angels fill the midnight sky, they sing, hallelujah, he is christ our king, emmanuel, prince of peace, loves come down for you and me, heaven's gift, the holy spark, to let the way inside our hearts, bethlehem, through your small door, came the hope we've waited for, the world was changed forevermore, when love was born, i close my eyes, see the night, when love was born
