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 His worth A thrill of hope, the weary world rejoices For yonder beams a new and glorious morn Fall on your knees Oh, 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 in lowly manger In all our trials born to be our friend He knows our need, to our weakness is no stranger Behold your King Before the lowly bend Behold 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 rise we Let all within us praise His holy name Christ is the Lord then ever, ever praise we His pow'r and glory ever more proclaim His pow'r and glory ever more proclaim
