Full Lyrics
VERSE 1
O holy night the stars are brightly shining!
It is the night of the dear Saviors birth:
Long lay the world in sin and error pining,
Till He appeared, and the soul felt its worth.
A thrill of hope the weary world rejoices
For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn
REFRAIN 1
Fall on your knees! O hear the angels voices!
O night divine O night when Christ was born!
O night divine O night O night divine
VERSE 2
Led by the light of faith serenely beaming,
With glowing hearts by His cradle we stand:
So led by light of a star sweetly gleaming,
Here came the wise men from the Orient land.
The King of kings lay thus in lowly manger
In all our trials born to be our friend
REFRAIN 2
He knows our need He guards us from all danger
Behold your King Before Him lowly bend!
Behold your King Before Him lowly bend
VERSE 3
Truly 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 brother,
And in His name all oppression shall cease
Sweet hymns of joy in grateful Chorus raise we
Let all within us Praise His holy name
REFRAIN 3
Christ is the Lord! O Praise His name for ever
His Power and glory ever more Proclaim!
His Power and glory ever more Proclaim!
VERSE 4
O day of joy, when in eternal splendor
He shall return in His glory to reign
When every tongue due Praise to Him shall render,
His Power and might to all nations Proclaim
A thrill of bliss our longing hearts rejoices
For Soon shall dawn that glad eternal morn
REFRAIN 4
Fall on your knees! With joy lift up your voices
O night divine O night when Christ was born!
O night divine O night O night divine
