Tonight the sky is clear, dark, and bright
When suddenly I catch the glimpse of light
Far in the north sky, there is a star from ancient world
It tells me a story about the birth of the Lord
Now He is remembered as the Savior to those who atone
From Bethlehem He has arisen to the highest throne
Indeed, the world is rejoicing in this beautiful holy night
The sacred hymn silences the wind, and evergreen turns white
Family gather to sing, laugh, celebrate, and stories are being told
While fragrances of myrrh and frankincense sweeten the air of gold
In this holy night and day, dear my beloved friend
May your Christmas always be joyful and merry without end
