The Baby sleeps. The stars shine high
upon the earth through darkened sky.
The virgin hums a lullaby.
The Lord has finally come.
As sacrifice He died then rose.
Let’s follow Him, be one of those
who lives the love that Jesus shows
and offers to us all.
The Spirit now makes new the heart.
Those fruitless thoughts that demons start
will stop. We have been set apart
for Him forever more.
