Full Lyrics
VERSE 1
On Christmas night, all Christians sing,
To hear the news the angels bring;
On Christmas night, all Christians sing,
To hear the news the angels bring.
News of great joy, news of great mirth,
News of our merciful king's birth.
VERSE 2
Then why should men on earth be so sad,
Since our redeemer made us glad;
Then why should men on earth be so sad,
Since our redeemer made us glad.
When from our sins he set us free,
All for to gain our liberty?
VERSE 3
When sin departs before his grace,
Then life and health come in its place;
When sin departs before his grace,
Then life and health come in its place.
Angels and men with joy may sing,
All for to see the new born king.
VERSE 4
All out of darkness we have light,
Which made the angels sing this night;
All out of darkness we have light,
Which made the angels sing this night.
Glory to God and peace to men,
Now and for ever more Amen.
