Bruce Cockburn O Little Town Of Bethlehem Lyrics

O Little Town Of Bethlehem Lyrics

O little town of Bethlehem How still we see thee lie Above thy deep and
dreamless sleep The silent stars go by Yet in thy dark streets shineth The
everlasting light The hopes and fears of all the years Are met in thee tonight




For Christ is born of Mary And gathered all above While mortals
sleep the angels keep Their watch of wondering love O morning stars together
Proclaim the holy birth And praises sing to God the king And peace to men on
earth 



How silently, how silently The wondrous gift is given So
God imparts to human hearts The blessings of his heaven No ear may hear his
coming But in this world of sin Where meek souls will receive him still The
dear Christ enters in
