Verse 1:
Children, gather around the flame
Sing the names of unsung heroes
Who fared against the one and same
devil that bellows
Fervent were they to face them bright
Raising the flag when all seemed lost
A tomorrow gained, Burned alight
By one pure life’s cost.
Pre Chorus:
The bells of heaven ring aloud
By the hymn of their angel’s voice
Of whom silenced the devil's hound
To free men of choice
One may say they were living saints
Holding what little faith they could
Against the looming dark awaits
A bright tomorrow!
Chorus:
We are blessed with another night
By the soldiers sent by heaven
Gracing the unknown with their light
Again and again
When fires of hell burned without rest
The clouds have sent saviors in flight
We remember them drifting like
When angels fell white.
Verse 2:
Through them, we could sing our carols
Of their enchanting tale and deeds
To adore this blessed night they fought
For our nations creed
O Silent night, a cold embrace
From voices past that flows with you
Whispering from an unknown place
Where voices rang true
The hymn of brothers lost in time
Find themselves home within the light
That came from heaven’s roaring fire
As stars in the night.
