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.
|
