Light of lights eternal hope has come
By and by to lead us back to love
Come behold a manger for a bed
Where the King of Kings has laid his head
Light of lights eternal hope has come
Hear the angel's song break the silent night
Lift up your eyes
Lift up your eyes
See the saving one born that none may die
Lift up your eyes
Lift up your eyes
Glory to God
Let the praises rise
Lift up your eyes
Lift up your eyes
Glory to God
Let the Earth reply
Lift up your eyes
Come and lay your offering at his feet
Where the sons of Earth and Heavens meet
Let the joy awake in every heart
Born into the night, the morning star
Come and lay your offering at his feet
Hear the angel's song break the silent night
Lift up your eyes
Lift up your eyes
See the saving one born that none may die
Lift up your eyes
Lift up your eyes
Glory to God
Let the praises rise
Lift up your eyes
Lift up your eyes
Glory to God
Let the Earth reply
Lift up your eyes
He shall be called wonderful
Counselor, Almighty God
He shall be called Prince of Peace
The Lord of Hosts
The Hope for us
Can you hear the angel's song
Break the silent night
Lift up your eyes
Lift up your eyes
See the saving one born that none may die
Lift up your eyes
Lift up your eyes
Glory to God
Let the praises rise
Lift up your eyes
Lift up your eyes
Glory to God
Let the Earth reply
Lift up your eyes
Lift up your eyes
Lift up your eyes
Lift up your eyes
Glory to God
Let the Earth reply
Lift up your eyes
We lift up your eyes
