O holy night the stars are brightly shining
1 O holy night the stars are brightly shiningIt is the night of the dear Savior s birthLong lay the world in sin and error piningTill He appeared and the soul felt its worthA thrill of hope the weary world rejoicesFor yonder breaks a new and glorious mornFall on your kneesO hear the angel voicesO night divine O night when Christ was bornO night O holy night O night divine2 Led by the light of faith serenely beamingWith glowing hearts by His cradle we standSo led by light of a star sweetly gleamingHere came the Wise Men from Orient landThe King of kings lay thus in lowly mangerIn all our trials born to be our FriendHe knows our need to our weakness is no strangerBehold your King before Him lowly bendBehold your King before Him lowly bend3 Truly He taught us to love one anotherHis law is love and His gospel is peaceChains shall He break for the slave is our brotherAnd in His name all oppression shall ceaseSweet hymns of joy in grateful chorus raise weLet all within us praise His holy nameChrist is the Lord O praise His name foreverHis power and glory evermore proclaimHis power and glory evermore proclaimHis power and glory evermore proclaim
