O Little Town Of Bethlehem

(album: Merry Christmas, Love - 2022)

O little town of Bethlehem
How still we see thee lie
Above thy deep and dreamless sleep
The silent stars go by

Yet in the dark streets shineth
The everlasting light
The hopes and fears of all the years
Are met in thee tonight

For Christ is born of Mary
And, gathered all above
While mortals sleep, the angels keep
Their watch of wondering love

O morning stars, together
Proclaim thy holy birth
And praise to sing to God the King
And peace to mend all earth

We hear the Christmas angel
The great glad tidings tell
The great glad tidings tell
O come to us
O come to us, abide within us
Our Lord Emmanuel
Our Lord Emmanuel

O little town of Bethlehem
How still we see thee lie
Above thy deep and dreamless sleep
The silent stars go by

Yet in the dark streets shineth
Oh, the everlasting light
The hopes and fears through all the years
Are met in thee tonight
