Oh holy night!
The stars are brightly shining
It is the night of the dear savior's birth!
Long lay the world in sin and error pining
Till he appear'd and the soul felt it's 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
Oh night divine
Oh night when christ was born
Oh night divine
Oh night divine
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 raise we,
Let all within us praise his holy name.
Christ is the lord.
Oh praise his name forever
His power and glory forever more proclaim
His power and glory forever more proclaim
Fall on your kness
Oh hear the angels voices
Oh night divine
Oh night when christ was born
Oh night divine
Oh holy night
Oh night divine
