Lyrics
We’ve ridden through some long nights
With not a star to guide
Just the sound of the wind blowing
Across the mountainside
There were times we thought the morning
Might never come around
Till we saw a fire burning
On a hill above the town
We have seen a great light
Shining through the longest night
Praise the Lord the dawn has come
Unto us a Son
We have seen a great light
Now the road is clear and bright
Praise the Lord the day has come
Unto us a Son
Every load gets a little lighter
When you know you’re headed home
Every mile gets a little shorter
When you don’t ride it alone
And the yoke that once was heavy
And the burdens that we bore
Seem to lose their hold upon us
Like they never could before
We have seen a great light
Shining through the longest night
Praise the Lord the dawn has come
Unto us a Son
We have seen a great light
Now the road is clear and bright
Praise the Lord the day has come
Unto us a Son
Wonderful Counselor
Mighty God and King
Prince of Peace forever
Hear the cowboys sing
Wonderful Counselor
Hope for everyone
Heaven’s promise given
Unto us a Son
We have seen a great light
Shining through the longest night
Praise the Lord the dawn has come
Unto us a Son
We have seen a great light
Now the road is clear and bright
Praise the Lord the day has come
Unto us a Son
Around this fire we’ll tell the story
Till our riding days are done
The people who walked in darkness
Have seen a great light
Unto us a Son
