FROM HEAV'N ABOVE (2020)
Lyrics by Dr. Richard Overman
Copyright © 2020 Sunset Village Music
From Heav'n above, where all is bright,
the Father's love shines down.
The Star of Bethlehem appears,
a sign to ev'ry town,
That Christ has come and we may rise
as stars within His crown!
Chorus:
Sing Hallelujah, shout for joy,
all peoples of the Earth!
Lift up your voices praising God
for Jesus' Holy Birth!
As creatures in a fallen world,
whene'er we look within,
Instead of Heav'nly Light we see
the darkness of our sin.
But lo! the Star reveals Him as
Whose image we begin.
Sing Hallelujah, shout for joy,
all peoples of the Earth!
Lift up your voices praising God
for Jesus' Holy Birth!
The final enemy is Death,
as fallen men know well;
They look away from Heaven's Light
and in Death's darkness dwell.
But Christ has vanquished Death for us,
and all things will be well!
Sing Hallelujah, shout for joy,
all peoples of the Earth!
Lift up your voices praising God
for Jesus' Holy Birth!
