Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Oh, little boy
Asleep in my arms tonight
Under the stars so bright
King of Kings
What tidings of comfort and joy He brings
[Verse 2]
Son of man
From Heaven above, You fell
Jehovah Emmanuel
Upon a midnight clear
I feel the love
[Verse 3]
It must be love (The Father's love)
It's got to be His love (It must be His love that brought you here)
Because of His love
That's why you're here
To give us hope for tomorrow
To take away the sorrow and fear (The fear)
Wipe away the tears and love (Love)
Because of His love
[Verse 4]
Special one
Who came to set all men free
Now all Heaven and Earth will sing
Behold the newborn King
It's all because of His love
[Verse 5]
It must be love (Got to be His love), got to be His love
(It could only be His love that brought you here)
'Cause of His love
That's why you're here
To give us hope for tomorrow
Take away the sorrow and fear (Take away the sorrow and fear)
Wipe away the tears with love (Love)
Because of His love
[Verse 6]
Oh, close to my heart, I hold the sleeping Savior
(He came to chase all the darkness away)
If there might be things I don't understand
(There might be things I don't understand)
I'll just keep holding on to your hand
[Verse 7]
Because of His love
That's why you're here (That's why you're here)
To give us hope for tomorrow (Tomorrow)
Take away the sorrow and fear (No more fear)
Wipe away the tears of love (Wipe away all my tears)
Because of His
[Verse 8]
Because of His love
That's why you're here (That's why you're here)
To give us hope for tomorrow (No, whoa, oh)
Take away the sorrow and fear (Sorrow and fear)
Wipe away the tears of love (Ooh, because of His love)
Because of His
[Verse 9]
Because of His love
That's why you're here (That's why you're here)
To give us hope for tomorrow
Take away the sorrow and fear
Wipe away the tears of love
Because of His love
