O Holy Night

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 Spirit felt its worth
 A 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, the night when Christ was born
 O night, O holy night, O night divine
 O night, O holy night, O night divine
 Led by the light of faith serenely beaming
 With glowing hearts by His cradle we stand
 O'er the world a star is sweetly gleaming
 Now come the wise men from out of the Orient land
 The King of kings lay thus lowly manger
 In all our trials born to be our friends
 He knows our need, our weakness is no stranger
 Behold your King, before him, lowly bend
 Behold your King, before him, lowly bend
 Truly He taught us to love one another
 His law is love and His gospel is peace
 Chains he shall break, for the slave is our brother
 And in his name all oppression shall cease
 Sweet hymns of joy in grateful chorus raise we
 With all our hearts we praise His holy name
 Christ is the Lord, then ever, ever praise we
 His power and glory ever more proclaim
 His power and glory ever more proclaim
