Lyrics (preview)
Verse 1
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 breaks a new and glorious morn
Chorus
Fall on your knees O hear the Angel's voices
O night Divine, O night when Christ was born
O night Divine O night O night divine
Verse 2
Led by the light of faith serenely beaming
With glowing heart by his cradle we stand
Led by the light of the star brightly gleaming
Here came the Wise men from orient land
A thrill of hope, the weary world rejoices
For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn
