O Holy Night | Lyrics

VERSE 1
O Holy night, the stars are brightly shining
It is the night of our dear Saviour's birth
Long lay the world, in sin and error pining
'Til He appeared and the soul felt its worth
A thrill of hope, the weary world rejoices
For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn

CHORUS 1
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

VERSE 2
Truly He taught us to love one another
His law is love and His gospel is peace
Chains He shall break for the slave is our brother
And in His name all oppression shall cease
Sweet hymns of joy in grateful chorus raise we
Let all within us praise his holy name

CHORUS 2
Christ is the Lord! O praise his name forever
His power and glory ever more proclaim
His power and glory ever more proclaim
