The Promise Fulfilled

On that holy night a star of splendor
Shed great light to herald the birth
Of a newborn babe,
The long-awaited Prince of Peace.

Angel choirs filled the heavens with joyous song and
Shepherds came in from the fields to pay Him homage.

Heaven and Earth rejoiced—the promise fulfilled.
