Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Circle of love, halo of light
When Jesus was born on that Christmas night
And oh, what a night that holy night was
When Bethlehem glowed in a circle of love
[Verse 2]
God sent his Son, his great gift to us
Salvation for all, he loved us that much
We honor and praise that gift from above
He holds all of us in a circle of love
[Verse 3]
Circle of love, halo of light
When Jesus was born on that Christmas night
And oh, what a night that holy night was
When Bethlehem glowed in a circle of love
[Verse 4]
Happy birthday to you, we praise and we sing
We celebrate you, we're so glad you came
Happy birthday dear Jesus, let us lift you up
How thankful we are for all of your love
[Verse 5]
So Jesus was born
Wore his crown of thorns
And he gave it all up
To save all of us
[Verse 6]
Circle of love, halo of light
When Jesus was born on that Christmas night
And oh, what a night that holy night was
When Bethlehem glowed in a circle of love
A circle of love, circle of love
