Listen Closely

Listen closely and you will hear,
Angelic voices of joy and cheer.
On a night long ago, in Bethelhem,
We heard the great news of Him.

Listen closely and you will hear,
A message of joy and not of fear.
For He was born to save us then,
When we were deep in sin.

Listen closely and you will hear,
And you will enjoy what you hold dear.
For in the quiet of that night,
We were given a Great Light.

Listen closely and you will hear,
A message of love and cheer.
For love came in this child,
And lo, in this manger mild.
