O Holy Night

O holy night

The stars are brightly shining;

It is the night of

Our dear Savior's birth!

Long lay the world

In sin and error pining

Till He appeared

And the soul felt its worth

A thrill of hope

The weary world rejoices

For yonder breaks

A new and glorious morn

Fall on your knees

O hear the angel voices!

O night divine

O night when Christ was born!

O night divine, O night

O night divine!

Led by the light of Faith

Serenely beaming

With glowing hearts

By His cradle we stand

So led by light of a star

Sweetly gleaming

Here came the wise men

From Orient land

The King of Kings lay thus

In lowly manger

In all our trials

Born to be our Friend!

He knows our need

To our weakness no stranger;

Behold your King!

Before the lowly bend!

Behold your King! your King!

Before Him bend

Truly He taught us

To love one another;

His law is love and

His gospel is peace

Chains shall He break

For the slave is our brother

And in His name

All oppression shall cease

Sweet hymns of joy in

Grateful chorus raise we

Let all within us

Praise His holy name!

Christ is the Lord

Oh praise His name forever

His pow'r and glory evermore proclaim

His pow'r and glory

Evermore proclaim
