Quietly singing and quietly hoping
this night will change the time.
Quietly singing the baby’s asleep,
so human divine.
Down by a manger
all people will gather,
no-one’s out of sight.
Shepherds, you out there,
come into the light:
it is Christmas Night.
Quietly singing and quietly hoping
our wishes will come true.
Quietly hoping there’s peace to be found,
a stable will do.
Down by a manger
we all come together,
how different we are.
Shepherds, you out there,
we’ll welcome you all.
Just follow the star.
Quietly singing
and quietly hoping
our wishes come true.
Down by a manger
we all start anew:
it’s Christmas for you.
Down by a manger
we all start anew:
it’s Christmas for you.
