“Calm Is the Night,” New Era, Aug. 1982, 10–11

Calm Is the Night

With feeling

First-Place Song

1. Calm is the night, quiet majesties of light,

Cool evening breeze and single cry,

a mother’s tender lullaby.

Chorus:

No jeweled crown nor fame is found, except in lighted sky

And whisper of a Father’s tender murmur of His name, “Jesus.”

Morning breaks in quiet sigh and fame.

A dark and sleeping world awakes to never be the same.

2. Grace adorns humble cloth on bed of hay.

Born is a king in quiet manger without pretence or display.

Chorus
