O little town of |
|
Bethlehem how still we see thee lie |
|
Above they deep and dreamless sleep the silent stars go by |
|
Yet in they dark streets shineth the everlasting light |
|
The hopes and fears of all the years are met in thee tonight |
|
O holy child of |
|
Bethlehem descend to us, we pray |
|
Cast out our sin and enter in be born in us today |
|
We hear the |
|
Christmas angels the great glad tidings tell |
|
O come to us, abide with us, our |
|
Lord Immanuel |
|
For Christ is born of |
|
Mary and gathered all above |
|
While mortals sleep, the angels keep their watch of wondering love |
|
O morning stars, together proclaim the holy birth |
|
And praises sing to |
|
God the King and peace to men on |
|
Earth |
