O Little Town Of Bethlehem/ Silent Night

(album: A Sentimental Christmas With Nat King Cole And Friends: Cole Classics Reimagined - 2021)

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 shine'th, 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 the holy birth
And praises sing to guard our King, and peace to men on earth

Silent night, holy night
All is calm, all is bright
Round yon Virgin, mother and child
Holy infant so tender and mild
Sleep in heavenly peace
Sleep in heavenly peace

Silent night, holy night

Son of God, love's pure light
Radiant beams from Thy holy face
With the dawn of redeeming grace
Jesus, Lord, at Thy birth
Jesus, Lord, at Thy birth
