O Holy night,

the stars are brightly shining

It is the night of the dear Saviour's birth

Long lay the world in sin and error pining

Till He appeared and the soul felt His worth



A thrill of hope, the weary world rejoices

For yonder beams 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 divine! O night, O night divine!



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 in lowly manger

In all our trials born to be our friend

He knows our need

To our weakness no stranger

Behold your King! before the lowly bend!

Behold your King! before Him bend!



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 rise we

Let all within us praise His holy name

Christ is the Lord

Then ever, ever praise we

His pow'r and glory ever more proclaim

His pow'r and glory ever more proclaim
