• O HOLY NIGHT

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
’Til he appeared
and the soul felt its worth.
A thrill of hope—
the weary soul 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!

Interlude—1 measure, 12/8 time

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,
to our weakness no stranger
Behold your King!
Before the lowly bend!
Behold your King!
Your King! before him bend!

Interlude—1 measure, 12/8 time

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,
then ever, ever praise we
His pow'r and glory
evermore proclaim
His pow'r and glory
evermore proclaim.
