| G | C | G | | O holy night, the | stars are brightly | shining. |
|
| D | G | | It is the night of our | dear saviour’s | birth; |
|
| C | G | | long lay the world in | sin and error | pining, |
|
| D | D7 | | till he ap | peared and the soul felt his | worth. |
|
| D | G | | A | thrill of hope, the | weary world rejoices, |
|
| D | G | | for | yonder breaks a | new and glorious morn. |
|
| Em | D7 | G | | Fall on your | knees! Oh, hear the angels’ | voices! |
|
| C | G | D | G | | O night di | vine, o | night, when christ was | born! |

Led by the light of faith serenely beaming, |
|
|
with glowing hearts by his cradle we stand; |
|
|
so led by light of a star sweetly gleaming, |
|
|
here came the wise men from orient land. |
|
|
The king of kings lay thus in lowly manger, |
|
|
in all our trials born to be our friend; |
|
|
he knows our need, our weakness is no stranger. |
|
|
Behold your king! Before him lowly bend! |
|
|
Behold your king! Before him lowly bend! |
|
|
|
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 pow’r and glory evermore proclaim! |
|
|
His pow’r and glory evermore proclaim! |
