О Little Town Of Bethlehem

(álbum: The Birth Of A King - 2020)

O little town of Bethlehem, how still we see thee lie
Above thy deep and dreamless sleep the silent stars go by
Yet in thy dark streets shineth the everlasting Light
The hopes and fears of all the years are met in thee tonight

The dark night wakes
and glory breaks
The Child was born for us
Gloria

How silently, how silently, the wondrous Gift is giv'n
So God imparts to human hearts the blessings of His Heav'n
No ear may hear His coming, but in this world of sin
Where meek souls will receive Him still, the dear Christ enters in

The dark night wakes
and glory breaks
The Child was born for us
Gloria

O holy Child of Bethlehem, descend to us, we pray
Cast out our sin, and enter in, be born in us today
We hear the Christmas angels the great glad tidings tell
Oh, come to us, abide with us, our Lord Emmanuel

The dark night wakes
and glory breaks
The Child was born for us
Gloria
