O Holy Night

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 it's worth! A thrill of hope the weary world rejoices, for yonder breaks a new an' glorious morn! Fall on your knees O hear the angel voices O night divine O night, when Christ was born O night divine O night, O night divine! Fall on your knees O hear the angel voices O night divine O night, when Christ was born O night divine O night, O night divine! O holy night O night divine Music by Adolphe Charles Adam, 1803-1856 Words by Placide Cappeau de Roquemaure, 1847 - Tr. John Sullivan Dwight
