[Chorus:]
Listen to the angels
Rejoicing e'er so sweetly
Receiving heaven's glory
The night that Christ was born
[repeat]
[Chorus II]
Can't you see the people
Coming from every nation
Pleading for salvation
The night that Christ was born
[Repeat Chorus I & II]
[Chorus III]
Oh such a wonderful savior
To be born in a manager
So that I can share His favor
And my heart be made anew
[Chorus IV]
Listen to the trumpets
Shouting through the darkness
Crying 'holy, holy'
The night that Christ was born
[Repeat Chorus III and IV]
[Repeat Chorus III]
Listen to the trumpets
Shouting through the darkness
Crying 'holy, holy' (Now Behold the Savior)
The night that Christ was born
[repeat Chorus]
