Lyrics

Verse 1

The shepherds came to
See the baby
Stood by His mother’s side
Here laid the Savior
Inside a manger
Oh what a glorious night

Oh what a glorious night

Chorus

I hear the angels singing hallelujah
Let the earth receive her King
I know that love has come
Singing it out
Jesus Christ is born

Jesus Christ is born
Yeah

The shepherds wondered
They couldn’t hide it
Told everyone in sight
All were amazed
When they heard how
God came down on the glorious night

I hear the angels singing hallelujah
Let the earth receive her King

I hear the angels singing hallelujah
Let the earth receive her King

Singing it out
Jesus Christ is born

All is calm now
All is quiet
A star shining in the sky
Below in Bethlehem
The King is sleeping
Oh what a glorious night

Sidewalk Prophets - "What a Glorious Night"

Friday, December 15, 2017

Sidewalk Prophets' original Christmas song "What a Glorious Night" is a joy-filled anthem that reflects the jubilation of the shepherds in Luke 2 after they had met Jesus for the first time.  In an interview with New Release Today, frontman Dave Frey explains, "When I read through Luke 2, that description of running through the town telling everybody really jumped out at me. The shepherds were so full of joy that they wanted to tell everybody. I wanted this song to reflect that type of joy." "What a Glorious Night," which appears on the band's Christmas album Merry Christmas To You, proclaims the good news of Christ's birth with a true spirit of celebration.  We encourage you to check out the entire album today on iTunes and include "What a Glorious Night" in your Christmas services this year!
