Selah's rendition of the classic carol 'Silent Night' blends the traditional English verses with a Lingala translation, celebrating the peaceful birth of Jesus Christ. The song reflects on the calm and bright night of Christ's nativity, the tender infant, and the arrival of the Savior. It emphasizes the redeeming grace brought by Jesus, the Son of God, and calls for heavenly peace. The inclusion of Lingala phrases like 'Mpimpa kiese' and 'Yesu Klisto me kwisa' highlights the universal message of Christ's coming, making it a cross-cultural worship experience.

Silent night, holy night
All is calm, all is bright
'Round yon virgin mother and child
Holy Infant so tender and mild
Sleep in Heavenly peace
Sleep in Heavenly peace
Mpimpa kiese, mpima longo
Mvulusi me kwisa
Kuwa ba wanjo kele ku yimba
Aleluia, Mfumu ya beto
Yesu Klisto me kwisa
Klisto imene kwisa
Silent night, holy night
Son of God, Love's pure light
Radiant beams from Thy holy face
With the dawn of redeeming grace
Jesus, Lord at Thy birth
Jesus, Lord at Thy birth
Silent night, holy night
