O Holy Night

Verse 1

O 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 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

Oh night divine
Oh night when Christ was born

Oh night divine
Oh night, Oh night divine

Verse 2

Humbly He lay
Creator come as creature

Born on the floor
Of a hay scattered stall

True Son of God
Yet bearing human feature

He entered Earth to
Reverse Adam's fall

In towering grace
He laid aside His glory

And in our place
Was sacrificed for sin

Fall on your knees
O hear the gospel story

Oh night divine
Oh night when Christ was born

Oh night divine
Oh night, Oh holy night

When Christ was born

Verse 3

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
O praise His name forever

Oh night divine
Oh night when Christ was born

Oh night divine
Oh night, Oh night divine

Verse 4

Come then to Him
Who lies within the manger

With joyful shepherds
Proclaim Him as Lord

Let not the promised
Son remain a stranger

In reverent worship
Proclaim Him as Lord

Eternal life is theirs
Who will receive Him

With grace and peace
Their lives He will adorn

Fall on your knees
Receive the Gift of Heaven

Oh night divine
Oh night when Christ was born

Oh night divine
Oh night, Oh holy night

When Christ was born
