O Holy Night

O Holy Night! The stars are brightly shining
It is the night of our dear Saviour's birth
Long lay the world in sin and error pining
Till He appeared and the Soul felt its 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!
O night divine, o the night, when Christ was born
O night divine, o night, o 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
Let all within us praise His holy name

Fall on your knees! Oh, hear the angel voices!
O night divine, o the night, when Christ was born
O night divine, o night, o night divine
