When Love Crossed Over

One glorious night
When love crossed over
And cast aside
Both crown and throne
To live beside
The common man
As was foretold
The promised one

And there he lay
In humble straw
As angels sing "goodwill to all"
A gift from God
To reconcile
All men to him
This perfect child

Behold this day
A savior's born
And in whose fate
This world has longed
Conceived in faith
Received with love
Come kneel beside
This child of God
Come kneel beside
This child of God
