It came upon a midnight clear

The King was born, foretold for years

The stars they shone, God’s love drew near

Heaven’s gift is here!

The great I AM came down to man

Immanuel, God’s perfect plan

The angels cheered, as He appeared

Heaven’s gift is here!

He lived, He died, He rose again

The Lamb of God to take our sins

Devils trembled with such fear

Heaven’s gift is here!

Ascending up to take His throne

All power in heav’n and earth His own

On Pentecost, He again drew near

Heaven’s gift is here!

It will come once more on a midnight clear

The King returns, foretold for years

His bride will rise, she’s all prepared

Heaven’s gift is here!
