O holy night the stars are brightly shiningA
It is the night of the dear Savior's birthB
Long lay the world in sin and error piningA
Till He appeared and the soul felt it's worthB
A thrill of hope the weary soul rejoicesC
For yonder breaks a new and glorious mornD
-
Fall on your knees Oh hear the angel voicesC
O night divine O night when Christ was bornD
O night O holy night O night divineE
-
Led by the light of Faith serenely beamingA
With glowing hearts by His cradle we standF
So led by light of a star sweetly gleamingA
Here come the wise men from Orient landF
The King of Kings lay thus in lowly mangerG
In all our trials born to be our friendH
-
He knows our need our weakness is no strangerG
Behold your King Before Him lowly bendH
Behold your King Before Him lowly bendH
-
Truly He taught us to love one anotherG
His law is love and His gospel is peaceC
Chains shall He break for the slave is our brotherG
And in His name all oppression shall ceaseC
Sweet hymns of joy in grateful chorus raise weI
Let all within us praise His holy nameJ
-
Christ is the Lord O praise His name foreverG
His pow'r and glory evermore proclaimJ
His pow'r and glory evermore proclaimJ
