| [00:01.34] |
o little town of bethlehem |
| [00:06.15] |
how still we see thee lie |
| [00:11.71] |
above thy deep and dreamless sleep |
| [00:17.25] |
the silent stars go by |
| [00:22.95] |
yet in thy dark streets shineth |
| [00:28.51] |
the everlasting light |
| [00:33.96] |
the hopes and fears of all the years |
| [00:39.62] |
are met in thee tonight |
| [00:56.65] |
for christ is born of mary |
| [01:02.04] |
and gathered all above |
| [01:07.60] |
while mortals sleep, the angels keep |
| [01:12.89] |
their watch of wondering love |
| [01:18.40] |
o morning stars together |
| [01:24.44] |
proclaim the holy birth |
| [01:29.65] |
and praises sing to god the king |
| [01:35.49] |
and peace to men on earth |
| [01:52.30] |
how silently, how silently |
| [01:57.69] |
the wondrous gift is given! |
| [02:02.92] |
so god imparts to human hearts |
| [02:09.00] |
the blessings of his heaven. |
| [02:14.18] |
no ear may his his coming, |
| [02:20.08] |
but in this world of sin, |
| [02:25.40] |
where meek souls will receive him still, |
| [02:31.79] |
the dear christ enters in. |
| [02:47.85] |
o holy child of bethlehem |
| [02:53.73] |
descend to us, we pray |
| [02:58.81] |
cast out our sin and enter in |
| [03:04.56] |
be born to us today |
| [03:09.80] |
we hear the christmas angels |
| [03:15.70] |
the great glad tidings tell |
| [03:21.07] |
o come to us, abide with us |
| [03:27.15] |
our lord emmanuel |
