O Holy Night

O Holy Night!Verse 1O Holy Night! The stars are brightly shining

It is the night of the dear Savior's birth

Long lay the world in sin and error pining Till He appeared and the Spirit felt its worth

A thrill of hope the weary world rejoices

For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn Chorus 1Fall on your knees! Oh, hear the angel voices!

O night divine, the night when Christ was born.

O night, O Holy Night, O night divine! Verse 2Led by the light of faith serenely beaming

With glowing hearts by His cradle we stand

O'er the world a star is sweetly gleamingNow come the wise men from out of the Orient land

The King of kings lay thus lowly manger

In all our trials born to be our friendsChorus 2He knows our need, our weakness is no stranger.

Behold your King! Before him lowly bend!

Behold your King! Before him lowly bend! InstrumentalVerse 3Truly 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 brotherAnd in his name all oppression shall cease

Sweet hymns of joy in grateful chorus raise we

With all our hearts we praise His holy nameChorus 3Christ is the Lord! And His name, forever praise we.

His power and his glory ever more proclaim!

His power and glory ever more proclaim!
