"Silent Night" is a wonderful song- but probably not accurate. The Heaven's rang, the angels sang- echoing their glad refrain- That night was anything but silent!

That Night Was Anything But Silent Dan Adkins/Steve Cheney/Gerald Cheney Centergy Music/BMI administered by Bill Gaither Copyright Management Cheney Mencer Music/ASCAP administered by Integrated Copyright Management Verse 1 The heavens rang, the angels sang Echoing the glad refrain That night was anything but silent Songs of hope were everywhere Joyous praises filled the air That night was anything but silent Chorus That night was anything but silent A multitude of angels sang His holy name He is the Promised One, Messiah King of Kings they all proclaimed That night was anything but silent Verse 2 The angels came that night to say The King of Kings is born this day That night was anything but silent The shepherds came to see the sight I'm sure it was a holy night But that night was anything but silent Chorus That night was anything but silent A multitude of angels sang His holy name He is the Promised One, Messiah King of Kings they all proclaimed That night was anything but silent Bridge That hill became a holy place where angels trod The shepherds left their sheep to find the Lamb of God The Lamb of God Chorus That night was anything but silent A multitude of angels sang His holy name He is the Promised One, Messiah King of Kings they all proclaimed That night was anything but silent That night was anything but silent

this song is fantastsic. I heard it on the radio when I was in North Carolina for Christmas. I turned the volume up so loud, that the trumpets like to have blew me away. I really would like to get the soundtrack.
