The Singing Of Silent Night

Silent Night was written by Joseph Mohr, 1818 and the music is by Franz Gruber 1818. The words are:

1. 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.

2. Silent night, holy night, shepherds quake at the sight. Glories stream from heaven afar, heav'nly hosts sing alleluia. Christ the Saviour is born, Christ the Saviour is born.

3. 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.
