O Holy Night Lyrics

O Holy Night lyrics

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
wisemen 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!
