Come Rejoice lyrics

Bright as the sun in the dark night air

There appeared a heavenly light

To guide the wise men to the King of hope

Who was born on Christmas night

The wisdom Child and His Mother mild

Slept in a manger stall

In a stable low where the cattle moaned

And the angels stood their guard

Come rejoice, queen and beggar

The homeless man and the prince of pride

Saint and vagabond, rich and poor

Rejoice in gladness on Christmas night

Bearing their gifts every wise man knelt

Bending his knees to the King

In the heavenly light while sweet Mary smiled

They heard the angels sing

So every soul on Christmas night

Yearns for healing grace

With gifts of myrrh and frankincense

They bless sweet Jesus' face

Come rejoice, queen and beggar

The homeless man and the prince of pride

Saint and vagabond, rich and poor

Rejoice in gladness on Christmas night

May all the blessings that come to us now

Lead us from darkness to light

May all the hope that is here in our hearts

Live beyond this magic night

Late tonight on a city street

Some child of woman and man

Goes to sleep on the frozen ground

And holds an empty hand

Lift up your eyes to the hopeless face

That greets you on your way

Give the tender gift of love

Make Christmas every day

Come rejoice, queen and beggar

The homeless man and the prince of pride

Saint and vagabond, rich and poor

Rejoice in gladness on Christmas night

Come rejoice, queen and beggar

The homeless man and the prince of pride

Saint and vagabond, rich and poor

Rejoice in gladness on Christmas night

On Christmas night
