What A Night

- Author Unknown

“That night when in the Judean skies the mystic star dispensed its light,

A blind man moved in his sleep and dreamed that he had sight.

That night when shepherds heard the song of hosts angelic choiring near,

A deaf man stirred in slumber’s spell and dreamed that he could hear.

That night when o’er the new-born babe the tender Mary rose to lean,

A loathsome leper smiled in sleep, and dreamed that he was clean.

That night when in the manger lay the Sanctified who came to save,

A man moved in the sleep of death, and dreamed there was no grave.”
