O little town of Bethlehem
How still we see thee lie

Above thy deep and dreamless sleep

The silent stars go by

Yet in thy dark streets shineth
The everlasting Light

The hopes and fears of all the years

Are met in thee tonight

Away in a manger
No crib for His bed

The little Lord Jesus
Laid down His sweet head
The stars in the bright sky
Looked down where He lay

The little Lord Jesus
Asleep on the hay

I love Thee Lord Jesus
Look down from the sky

And stay by my side
Til morning is nigh
Bless all the dear children
In Thy tender care
And take us to heaven

To live with Thee there

O holy Child of Bethlehem
