That night when in Judean skies
The wondrous star did shine so bright
A blind man moved while in his sleep
And dreamed that he had sight
That night when Magi traveled far
While o'er the house the star drew near
A deaf man stirred in slumber's spell
And dreamed that he could hear
That night when safe in Joseph's arms
The little king was held secure
A captive child smiled in her sleep
And dreamed that she was pure
That night when o'er the newborn Babe
The tender Mary rose to lean
A leper slept a happy sleep
And dreamed that he was clean
And all the while the dreamers dreamed
The Child who would redeem them
Lay weeping for the world
He would waken
That night when in the manger lay
The Son of God who came to save
A man moved in the sleep of death
And dreamed there was no grave
