On a cold dark night in Bethlehem,
In a stable far away,
A baby boy was born for us,
And new hope was ours that day.

Because of the love God felt for us,
And I know His heart was torn,
He sent His Son as a sacrifice,
On the night that Love was born.

He was not born on holy ground,
But born as lowly as could be.
This King of kings who in a manger lay,
Would die for you and me.

He was sent from Heaven's glory,
And from the Father who was left alone,
To live and die as a sacrifice,
On the night that Love was born.

The bright star that we see tonight,
Reminds us of the home,
That will be ours for all eternity,
Because of the night that Love was born.

Thank You, Lord, for the Sacrifice
On the Night That Love Was Born.
