Christmas Must Be Tonight lyrics

Come down to the manger

See the little stranger

Wrapped in swaddling clothes,

the Prince of Peace

The wheels start turning

Torches start burning

And the old wise men journey

From the East

How a little baby boy

Bring the people so much joy

Son of a carpenter

Mary carried the light

This must be Christmas, must be tonight

A shepherd on a hillside

Where over my flock I bide

On a cold winter night a

A band of angels sing

In a dream I heard a voice

Say, "Fear not, come rejoice

It's the end of the beginning,

Praise the newborn king"

How a little baby boy

Bring the people so much joy

Son of a carpenter

Mary carried the light

This must be Christmas, must be tonight

I saw it with my own eyes

Written up in the sky

But why a simple herdsmen such as I?

And then it came to pass

He was born at last

Right below the star that shines on high

How a little baby boy

Bring the people so much joy

Son of a carpenter

Mary carried the light

This must be Christmas, must be tonight

Son of a carpenter

Mary carried the light

This must be Christmas, must be tonight

Be tonight, be tonight, be tonight...
