Lyrics:

Verse 1:

Sometimes an ordinary day
Ends an extraordinary way
Sometimes our everyday routine
Holds more importance than it seems

Like the birth of a baby
On a cold winter night
Taking place in a stable
Under Heaven´s moonlight

Only wise men and shepards
Made the journey that day
To acknowledge the baby
As He slept in hay

Chorus A:

Though unnoticed by many
A gift more than any
How is it we missed its worth
The night of our Savior´s birth
When we had Heaven on Earth

Verse 2:

Sometimes the things that bring us pain
Can bring extraordinary gain
Sometimes the sorrow in our lives
Has meaning we don´t realize

Like the death of a Savior
Being hung on a cross
As the people were weeping
Many grieving their loss

Gone were thoughts of the baby
Born many years ago
But death would not overcome
What His birth had foretold

Chorus B:

Though forgotten by many
A gift more than any
We must remember its worth
The night of our Savior´s birth
When we had Heaven on Earth

Bridge:

Do you notice God´s wonders
As they happen each day
They are often delivered
In a simple way
It is easy to miss them
Or forget what their worth
Like our Savior´s birth
When we had Heaven on earth

Repeat Chorus B
