O little town of Bethlehem how still we see thee lie
|
Above they deep and dreamless sleep the silent stars go by
|
Yet in they dark streets shineth the everlasting light
|
The hopes and fears of all the years are met in thee tonight
|
|
O holy child of Bethlehem descend to us, we pray
|
Cast out our sin and enter in be born in us today
|
We hear the Christmas angels the great glad tidings tell
|
O come to us, abide with us, our Lord Immanuel
|
|
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
|
