Tis' The Hour of Rebirth (Christmas Eve)

Midnight,  
An hour for evil to be smite.  
The fallen angel said: let there be night!  
And God said: let there be light!  

Tis’ the hour of His birth,  
And the time of our rebirth.  
Oh, believers of the heavens,  
Tis’ the hour of your redemptions!  
 
To within our souls,  
God has sloped his hands over Heaven’s grassy knolls  
To cleanse the ink of sin  
That too many of our free-wills are stained within.  
 
On the eve of His birth  
And the time of our prayer for rebirth,  
All the peoples of the Faith dance in spirit,  
So, tis’ the night our Lord shall save it!  
 
Oh, sinners of the of the earth themselves  
Best pray for their holy escape,  
Redeem yourselves! Release yourselves  
from Lucifer’s black cape!  
 
The light of our Faith skewers any darkness with a holy sword,  
For the newborn babe of this hour of our Lord.  
As brilliant, and mighty as he will one day stoutly stand;  
Leading us of the true Faith through every land!  
 
Within a humble manger,  
Over a now sanctified bed of hay,  
Far from sinful danger,  
The King of Kings lay.  
 
Our Faith and Pride follow!  
For those filled with sorrow.  
Open your arms for the redeemer!  
For a true child of God finds this not as a dreamer!  
 
Breaking every bind between Faith and sin,  
The Lord has freed the believers in the world they abode in.  
We now on this night see a sinner; a slave,  
But by the grace of holy-love, we now see a brother that unto us fate gave.  
 
And for this, we are forever grateful to Him  
And we shall on Christmas Eve sing his hymn.  
From His birth, to His suffering, to His rebirth.  
So, now tis’ the hour of His birth.  
 
Believers die to rise,  
Sinners die to have a fall so grim.  
In death we rise.  
In death we rise with Him!
