O Holy Night

Written By: Unknown

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 is 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
