When Angels Couldn’t Keep Silent – From the Desk of D. Bryan King

[Intro]
[Soft acoustic guitar, building]

[Verse 1]
The heavens held their breath that night
While shepherds watched their sheep
But glory couldn’t be contained
When God no longer slept
The silence broke with holy sound
As angels filled the sky
They couldn’t keep the secret now
The King had come to die

[Chorus]
When angels couldn’t keep silent
And heaven touched the earth
When glory sang through midnight
Announcing holy birth
The message was too wonderful
Too powerful to hide
When angels couldn’t keep silent
Love came alive, love came alive

[Verse 2]
Two thousand years have come and gone
But still the story rings
Of how the God of everything
Became the King of Kings
And we who know this precious truth
Can’t keep it to ourselves
Like angels on that starlit night
We have good news to tell

[Bridge]
Glory to God in the highest
Peace to all on earth
Shout it from the mountains
Tell them what He’s worth
Glory to God in the highest
Let every voice proclaim
Jesus Christ the Savior
Forever praise His name

[Final Chorus]
We cannot keep silent
When heaven touched the earth
Our hearts sing through the darkness
Celebrating holy birth
This message is too wonderful
Too powerful to hide
We cannot keep silent
Love is alive, love is alive
Christ is alive, Christ is alive

[Outro]
[Soft fade with acoustic guitar and strings]
