O ho-ly night! the stars are bright-ly shin-ing,
It is the night of our dear Sav-ior's birth.
Long lay the world in sin and er-ror pin-ing,
Till He ap-peared unto men upon the earth.
A thrill of hope the wea-ry world re-joices,
For yon-der breaks a new and glo-rious morn.
Fall on your knees, Oh hear the an-gel voi-ces!
O night di-vine, O night when Christ was born!
O night, O ho-ly night, O night di-vine!
Led by the light of faith se-rene-ly beam-ing,
With glow-ing hearts by His cra-dle we stand.
Led by a light from heav-en sweet-ly gleam-ing,
Here came the wise men from out a dis-tant land.
The King of kings lay in a low-ly man-ger,
In all our tri-als born to be our friend.
He knows our need, He guards us from all dan-ger.
Be-hold your King, be-fore Him low-ly bend.
Be-hold your King, your King be-fore Him bend.
Christ is the Lord, Oh praise His name for-ever!
His pow'r and glo-ry ever-more pro-claim!
His pow'r and glo-ry (for) ever-more pro-claim!
A-men! A-men!
