Such a night in Bethlehem

1 Such a night in Bethlehem;
such a noise and a rushing!
All the world here, young and old here,
such a crowd and a crushing!
God is with us, God is with us;
Christ the Lord is our Saviour!

2 Such a light on Bethlehem;
such a glare and a blazing!
Angels winging, heaven singing,
shepherds fearfully gazing!
Chorus

3 Such a sight in Bethlehem;
such a King in a manger!
God above us come to love us
with the poor and the stranger!
Chorus
