A NIGHT TO REMEMBER
(Rita MacNeil (m & l)
Lyrics as released by Rita MacNeil 1993 'Once Upon A Christmas'.
I look out in wonder, a night to remember
Oh precious tidings that come with the morn
The sweet adoration, a time to remember
Strangers all travel to bring forth their joy.
Hallelujah, we say again
Raise our voice, our hearts, our hands
Christ our saviour, on Christmas day.
(bridge)
Hope of the ages in sweet expectation
We wait in the darkness, for He shall come
Bring forth the Saviour, let us adore Him
Glad hearts are waiting, let us rejoice.
Hallelujah, we say again
Raise our voice, our hearts, our hands
Christ our saviour, on Christmas day.
Hallelujah, we say again
Raise our voice, our hearts, our hands
Christ our saviour, on Christmas day.
