NCP 5
It was on a starry night
When the hills were bright
Earth lay sleeping,
Sleeping calm and still.
Then in a cattle shed
In a manger bed
A boy was born
King of all the world.
And all the angels sang for him,
The bells of Heaven rang for him,
For a boy was born
King of all the world.
(Repeat chorus)
Soon the shepherds came that way
Where the baby lay
And were kneeling,
Kneeling by His side.
And their hearts believed again
For the peace of men,
For a boy was born
King of all the world.
