In The Night
Simon Shuster Feat. Nicole Lyrics

Away in a manger, no crib for a bed
The baby Jesus was born in humble surroundings, with no proper bed available.

The little Lord Jesus lay down His sweet head
The baby Jesus had a peaceful and serene sleep.

The stars in the sky look down where He lay
The magnificent stars added to the peaceful setting in which baby Jesus was sleeping.

But little Lord Jesus asleep on the hay
The new-born Jesus was sleeping undisturbed on the hay.

Oh, what a sacred night, the stars were shinin' bright
The night of Jesus' birth was special and sacred with the stars shining brightly.

The angels sing it loudly, the Savior has arrived
The angels proclaimed the birth of the Savior with a loud and clear voice.

Their music filled the skies, oh, what a lullaby
The angels' singing was so beautiful and calming that it could be compared to a lullaby.

To announce the new born baby to people far and nigh
The angels sang to ensure that everyone was aware of the birth of the new-born baby Jesus.

And they cried glory, glory, glory, glory, glory, glory
The angels shouted in unison, in praise of God's glory.

Glory, glory, glory to the Lord God on high
The angels' chanting was in praise of the Lord God on high.

All the angels sang glory, glory, glory, glory, glory, glory
All the angels joined in harmony to sing praises to God's glory.

The cattle are lowing, the baby awakes
The sound of the cattle lowing in the background awoke the baby Jesus from his sleep.

But little Lord Jesus, no crying He makes
Though the baby Jesus woke up, he did not cry and maintained his peaceful disposition.

I love Thee Lord Jesus, look down from the sky
The singer expresses their love for Jesus and asks him to look down from the sky.

And stay by my cradle till morning is nigh
The singer asks Jesus to bless them and stay with them until morning comes.

Be near me, Lord Jesus, I ask You to stay
The singer implores Jesus to stay close to them.

Close by me forever and love me, I pray
The singer prays for Jesus' love and eternal presence by their side.

Bless all the dear children in Thy tender care
The singer asks Jesus to bless and care for all the children in the world.

And fill us for Heaven to live with You there
The singer hopes that Jesus will guide them and lead them to heaven where they can live with him.

And we will cry holy, holy, holy, holy, holy, holy
The singer promises to honor and worship Jesus by crying out 'holy' repeatedly.

Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God on high
Jesus is addressed as the Lord God on high, and the singer acknowledges his holiness.

Children, help me sing, holy, holy, holy, holy, holy, holy
The singer invites children to join them in singing songs of praise to Jesus.

Everybody sing glory, glory, glory, glory, glory, glory
The singer urges everyone to sing in glorification of Jesus.

Glory, glory, glory to the Lord God on high

Glory, glory, glory, glory, glory, glory
