NightHawkrock are currently working on new material. With each release, a unique journey, an expansion of genre and technique. Mission is to journey into the writers unknown, and to exhibit music as it is meant to be; a tasteful art. Press reviews: Band: Nighthawkrock Song: Leave you Now Review: Ok I'm starting to wonder what year it is with today's batch of songs. Here's another tune that has that old feel. I like the melody. The playing is apt and fitting. I feel a bit of old Clapton technique in here. I'm a big fan of Eric Clapton so it helps! Relaxing tune. ________________________________________________ Rainbows and unicorns come to mind when listening to the music of this husband and wife duo. A little bit of Progressive, a smidgen of synthesizer, a dab of new age, and a special love goes into these tunes. - Jesse T., Listen.com____________________________________________ I think this music has a feeling like John Lennon's music right before he died, maybe because of the love this couple has for each other, like John had for Yoko. Warning: these tunes are catchy, very melodical! Love them! -Gary Batchelder, Musician/Christian Rock.

Story behind the song

For the love of Christ

Lyrics

O Little Town of Bethlehem 
PD
O little town of Bethlehem,
How still we see thee lie!
Above thy deep and dreamless sleep
The silent stars go by;
Yet in thy dark streets shining
The everlasting Light;
The hopes and fears of all the years
Are met in thee to-night.
For Christ is born of Mary,
And gathered all above,
While mortals sleep, the angels keep
Their watch of wondering love.
O morning stars, together
Proclaim the holy birth!
And praises sing to God our King,
And peace to men on earth.


How silently, how silently,
The wondrous gift is given!
So God imparts to human hearts
The blessings of his heaven.
No ear may hear his coming,
But in this world of sin,
Where meek souls will receive him, still
The dear Christ enters in.
Where children pure and happy
Pray to the blessed Child,
Where misery cries out to thee,
Son of the mother mild;
Where charity stands watching
And faith holds wide the door,
The dark night wakes, the glory breaks,
And Christmas comes once more.

O holy Child of Bethlehem!
Descend to us, we pray;
Cast out our sin and enter in,
Be born in us to-day.
We hear the Christmas angels
The great glad tidings tell;
O come to us, abide with us,
Our Lord Emmanuel! 
The hopes and fears of all the years
Are met in thee to-night.
