Sacred Night

Sacred Night - Secret Garden (神祕園)/Cathrine Iversen

Lyrics by：Rolf Løvland

Composed by：Rolf Løvland

Sleep gently in your cradle

So bright the stars above

Tonight this holy stable

Is blest by the grace of God

I hold my arms around you

So sweetly angels sing

Proclaiming now they've found

The dawn of the newborn king

Hallelujah Child of Bethlehem

You have come to be our light

The gift of Christmas heaven-sent

The wonder of this long sacred night

I lay me down beside you

The shepherds soon arrive

They have come from afar to abide you

And greet the promised child

I know not why God chose me

To mother Jesus divine

The gift that he bestows me

Is the greatest of all time

Hallelujah Child of Bethlehem

You have come to be our light

The gift of Christmas heaven-sent

The wonder of this night

Hallelujah Child of Bethlehem

You have come to be our light

The gift of Christmas heaven-sent

The wonder of this long sacred night

I know not why God chose me

To mother Jesus divine

The gift that he bestows me

Is the greatest of all time

The dawn of the newborn king

Sacred night
