Don't wake the baby He'll just scream the house down Got all these bills to pay The debt is getting steep There's not enough money Or love to go around When the world is heartless Better off to let him sleep I look into the night sky They tell me it's black forever From where comes this longing if there is nothing more? I stare at the night sky And ask so much of the heavens Why does my soul burst If there's no one to answer me? Let your light Break the shackles of the night Could a loving God Send a tiny baby to a world so dark and wild Let your light Break the shackles of the night Did this loving God send His peace to us In the body of the Christmas child? In a barn, to poor parents He was born to be a refugee Always an outsider To the world he came to save He tried to teach us So we hung him from a tree, He laid but did not stay in that borrowed grave I look into the night sky and know that are not distant You know what it is like to be squeezed and beaten down I stare at the night sky Warmed by your compassion I can be humble and love, because you gave up your crown Let your light Break the shackles of the night Could a loving God Send a tiny baby to a world so dark and wild Let your light Break the shackles of the night Did this loving God send His peace to us In the body of the Christmas child?
