In 2019, I wrote these lyrics to the tune of “Be Thou My Vision.” I hope the words will encourage you this Christmas season!
“O Night Most Holy”
O night most holy,
do you hear that cry—
sound of salvation
that fills up the sky?
Word of the Father
now dwelling with man,
born to young Mary
in Bethlehem.
O what a chorus
of praise at his birth:
angels in heaven and
shepherds on earth.
Words of the prophets
fulfilled in this boy,
shout from the mountains
good news of great joy!
O Son of heaven,
Thy vict’ry we sing,
death on a cross and
yet where is its sting?
For on the third day,
Thou rose up in might.
into the darkness
Thou art the true light.
O Hope of nations!
All blessing and praise,
all pow’r and honor,
all glory, always
be to the Savior
whose birth we adore,
knowing, confessing
that Jesus is Lord.
Beautiful! Thank you Mitch.
