O holy night!
The stars are brightly shining
It is the night of the dear Saviour's birth
Long lay the world
In sin and error pining
Till He appeared
and the Spirit felt its worth
A thrill of hope the weary world rejoices
For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn
Fall on your knees!
Oh, hear the angel voices!
O night divine
The night when Christ was born
O night divine!
O night, O night divine!
-o-
Led by the light of faith serenely beaming
With glowing hearts by His cradle we stand
O'er all the world
A star is sweetly gleaming
Now come the wise men
from far Orient land
The King of kings lay thus in lowly manger
In all our trials born to be our friend
He knows our need
Our weakness is no stranger
Behold your King!
Before Him lowly bend!
Behold your King!
Before Him lowly bend!
|
Christ is the Lord!
Then ever
Ever praise Him
His power and glory
Ever more proclaim!
His pow'r and glory
Ever more proclaim!
