In answer to a fervent prayer An angel was sent down Into the den where Daniel prayed Where lions made no sound. Hundreds of years before wise men Would worship on bended knee, The Spirit of God gave peace to man And a prophet slept like a baby. Silent night, holy night - How does this Spirit dwell When evil kings and mortal men Seek to destroy Noel? When hunger, hatred, guilt, and fear Fall over all the earth, Where is this peace and silent rest That heralds holy birth? This is peace when all the world In quiet slumber lies, While Satan and his evil host Wince at a Baby’s cry. A newborn wrapped in swaddling clothes - All around Him, heavenly calm. The Christ Child sleeps– son of God and man - Like a baby - safe and warm. |
