O Holy Night

Verse 1
O Holy Night! The stars are brightly shining
It is the night of our dear Savior's birth
Long lay the world, in sin and error pining
"Till He appeared, and the soul felt it's worth
thrill of hope, the weary world rejoices
For yonder breaks, a new and glorious morn'
Fall, on your knees! Oh, hear the angel voices!
O! night divine, O! night, when Christ was born
O! night, O ho-ly night, when Christ was born

Verse 2
Led by the light, of faith serenely beaming
With glowing hearts by His cradle we stand
O'er all the world, a star is sweetly gleaming
Now come the wisemen, from out of orient land
The King of kings, lay in a lowly manger
In all our trials, born to be our Friend
He, knows our need, to our weakness is no strange
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 a brother
And in His name, all oppression shall cease!
Sweet hymns of joy in grateful chorus raise we,
Let all creation, praise His holy name
Christ, is the Lord! Then ever, ever praise we
His power, and glo – ry ever more proclaim
His power, and glo – ry e-ver more proclaim
