They came from nearthey came from fara
Following a distance star to where He laya
Not being sure of what it meanbuta
Knowing it was their waya
And the creatures gathered rounda
And didn t make a sounda
And the angels crieda
The angels knew what was to comea
The reason God had sent His sona
From up abovea
It filled their hearts with joy to see anda
Knowing of His destinya
Came tears of lovea
I ve often thought about that nighta
And wondered if they realizeda
That star so brighta
Was sent to tell all the landa
The Son of God would soon becomea
The Son of Mana
And the creatures gathered rounda
And didn t make a sounda
And the angels crieda
And the Angel Crieda
And the Angel Cried
