First Christmas in America

With dignity

1. The sun went down, But it was still as light as day.

No darkness came. The Nephites knelt to pray.

2. This was the sign The prophet Samuel was given:

In Bethlehem The Lord cam down from heav’n.

3. The Christ was born, A baby full of loving grace.

That long, long day His light filled all of space.
