oh holy night

o holy night the stars are brightly shining

it is the night of our savior's birth

long lay the world in sin and error pining

'til 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 angels voices

o night divine o night when christ was born

o night divine o night divine o night divine

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
