[Verse 1]
Spir[D]it walks on that [G]holy [D]night
Staple [G]floor, [D]heaven's door
Son of God, born that holy [G]night
[D]Precious light was breathed
into the [A]world
Mary [Bm]gently [D]held her [A]newborn
[D]Saviour near
Knowing [G]that His [D]presence
held such promise [A]dear
[D]Christ was born on that [G]holy night,
[D]and by [F#m]his wo[G]rd hope wi[D]ll dawn.
So it was on that [G]quiet [D]night,
infant[F#m]s cry, [G]He [D]don[F#m]ite,[D]
heavenly word on that [Bm]quiet [D]night,
Love of God's whispered to the [A]world
Let His word [Bm]take [D]flight
and wake [A]you from [D]your sleep
Lift your voice [G]to Him,
[D]this precious night to keep
[A]May our[D] song celebrate His[Bm] bir[G]th
[D]And by [G]His word joy [D]will dawn

[Verse 2]
[D]So it was on that blessed night,
Lonely [G]men [D]hurried when
Angels told of [G]their Saviour's birth
[D]Peace, goodwill to everyone on [A]earth
Let's [Bm]worship [D]Him in [A]His hu[D]mility
Let us [G]hurry [D]to Him,
finding bow the [A]knee
[D]Christ was born on that [G]blessed night
[D]And by [F#m]His word, [G]pea[D]ce will dawn
So it was on that [G]darkest night
[D]Ra di[F#m]ant li[G]ght pi[D]erced the sky
For this child lying [G]helpless [D]there
Would one day be lifted up [A]on high
Cruel [Bm]hands would nail [D]him to
a dreadful tree
Draining [G]life [D]out of this broken son for [A]me
A [D]costly gift given this [G]holy night
[D]But by [G]his death, [D]life will dawn
