Earth was calm and peaceful

On this very special day
When a Little Boy was born
In a Kingdom far away

He did not have a Palace
Or finest silken threads
But His Sweet and Gentle Mother
Placed straw within His Bed

He was cradled in a manger
In a stable filled with love
The animals all gathered
To bow in honor of

God's precious Little Baby

The Prince of Peace now born

Such glory in this miracle

His Love so soft and warm

Outside in the moonlight
The stars were shining bright
Showing way to strangers
In the darkness of night

Angels gathered overhead
Trumpets sounded near
All for Little Jesus who is
Born again each year.
