Silent Night - that means
Christmas to some people
Here comes Santa Claus here comes Santa Claus
That means Christmas to some people
A lot of people from different parts of
The country and all over the world
Have different ways of celebrating the
Birth of Jesus Christ
The prophets of old had foretold of
His coming for four thousand years
And a lot of people say that the wise
Men from the East were probably astronomers
That may have studied the stars and knew
That the new star that was gonna
To appear in the East the time
Of it was at hand
A lot of others of course say
That they were told by God
That the star was about to appear so
They could begin their long journey
From the East and where was the East
Some people say it could have
Been India some people speculate
That one of the wise men came from as
Far away as Korea all away cross Asia
And he must have been a
Coming for many months maybe
Maybe even years to get to the
Place where that new star
That was to hang over that manger
In the town of Bethlehem
Ten miles from Jerusalem
Whatever the shepherds came in
From the fields
And you know it's really something that
A shepherd would leave his flock
To come in for anything
Because that was really
About a crime for a man to do
That was shepherd to leave his flock of sheep
And come in for anything because the
Sheep were man's lively hood
The milk and the meat and
The wool for the clothing
It really took something for a
Shepherd to leave a flock
And there were a lot of them
That did it and came in
To worship the new baby Jesus That
Was born in the manger
The wise men came bearing gifts
Of gold frankincense and myrrh
And they brought them and laid them at the
Foot of the manger where Jesus lay
And you know the voice of
God so the scriptures say
According to the scriptures had been
Silent for four hundred years
There had not been a divinely inspired
Prophet for four hundred years
And all of a sudden you can imagine what
Kind of night it must have been
For a new star to suddenly
Appear out of the heavens
And shepherds to leave their flock and men
Wealthy looking strangers come in
From the East
And all of a sudden on top of all
That a heavenly choir to start to singing
Singing voices from heaven
Singing words that they understood
Words like peace on Earth good will to men
- what a night it must have been
