We come to thee in awe and adoration

For on this eve our savior has been born

Through darkest hour, we've suffered tribulation

But, now, through grace, we greet a brilliant morn

With candles gleaming, Lord, we are reminded

You are the light, which shines away the dark

Restoring sight to those who have been blinded

Restoring hope and joy to every heart

Oh Lord, we feel your angels all around us

And with our spirit we can hear them sing

For we were lost, but through your son you found us

So we rejoice, the angels echoing

Oh Lord. we pray the warmth we feel this evening

Will keep away the cold the winter brings

We pray the gifts your children are receiving

Will glorify the love from which they spring

And, that by tending to a world that's grieving

We can give back a loving offering

Please accept from us this loving gift we bring
