o holy night

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 soul felt its worth. a thrill of hope the weary world rejoices

for yonder breaks a news 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 the orient land. the king of kings lay thus in lowly manger

in all our trials born to be our friend. he knows our need

he guardeth us from danger;

behold your king

before him lowly bend!

behold you king

before him lowly bend!

fall on your knees!
