Johnny Cash 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 street shine

The everlasting light

The hopes and fears of all the years

Are met in thee tonight



{Non-compositional}



For Christ is born of Mary

And gathered all above

While mortals sleep, the angels keep

Their watch of wandering love



Oh, morning stars together

Proclaim the holy birth

And praises sing to God the King

And peace to men on earth



Oh holy Child of Bethlehem

Descend to us, we pray

Cast out our sin and enter in

Reborn in us today



We hear the Christmas angels

Their great glad tidings tell

Oh come to us, abide with us

Our Lord, Emmanuel
