Lyrics:

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.
