[Verse 1]
Oh 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 shineth, the everlasting light)
The hopes and fears of all the years are met in thee tonight
[Verse 2]
(For Christ is born of Mary, and gathered all above)
While mortals sleep the angels keep their watch of wondering love
Oh morning stars together, proclaim thy holy birth
And praises sing to God the king, and peace to men on earth
[Verse 3]
(Oh holy child of Bethlehеm, descend to us we pray)
Cast out our sin and еnter in
Be born in us today
We hear the Christmas angels
The great glad tidings tell
Oh, come to us, abide with us
Our Lord Immanuel!
(Amen, amen)
