As we celebrate our Savior’s birth, we wish you a full and rich time of worship and joy.
Enjoy this classic Christmas hymn with your friends and family.
Break Forth, O Beauteous Heavenly Light
Break forth, O beauteous heavenly light,
and usher in the morning.
O shepherds, shudder not with fright,
but hear the angel’s warning:
this child, now weak in infancy,
our confidence and joy shall be,
the power of Satan breaking,
our peace eternal making.
