The Night Before

It’s the night before
A Savior came,
Born to a teenage girl.
The night before
Salvation came
Through a child for all the world.
The night before
The shepherds saw
The star light up the sky -
The night before
He took His first breath
And later, chose to die.
It’s the night before
Mary gave birth to a Son
Only to give Him up.
The night before
The Boy would grow
And one day drink the cup.
It’s the night before.
It’s Christmas Eve.
