Words & music: unknown      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 soul felt his worth      A thrill of hope, the weary world rejoices   For yonder beams a new and glorious morn      Fall on your knees   Oh, hear the angel voices   O night divine   O night when christ was born   O night divine   O night, o night divine      Led by the light of faith serenely beaming   With glowing hearts by his cradle we stand   So led by light of a star sweetly gleaming   Here came the wise men from the orient land      The king of kings lay in lowly manger   In all our trials born to be our friend   He knows our need, to our weakness is no stranger      Behold your king   Before the lowly bend   Behold your king   Before him bend      Truly he taught us to love one another   His law is love and his gospel is peace   Chains shall he break, for the slave is our brother   And in his name all oppression shall cease      Sweet hymns of joy in grateful chorus rise we   Let all within us praise his holy name   Christ is the lord then ever, ever praise we   His pow'r and glory ever more proclaim   His pow'r and glory ever more proclaim
