Music & Lyrics: Traditional Swedish Carol

"LIGHT ONE THOUSAND CHRISTMAS LIGHTS"

Chorus:
Now light one thousand Christmas lights
On dark earth here tonight;
One thousand, thousand also shine
To make the dark sky bright.

[Repeat Chorus]

Oh, once when skies were starry bright,
In stable cold and bare
Sweet Mary bore a Son that night,
A Child both kind and fair.

She named her little Son Jesú,
Sweet Mary, meek and mild.
She cradled and she rocked Him too,
That little tiny child.

[Repeat Chorus]

He came to bring us love and light,
To bring us peace on Earth,
So let your candles shine tonight
And sing with joy and mirth.

[Repeat Chorus Twice]
