LyicsSILENT night! hallow'd night!
Land and deep silent sleep;
Softly glitters bright Bethlehem's star,
Beck'ning Israel's eye from afar,
Where the Saviour is born.
Silent night! hallow'd night!
On the plain wakes the strain,
Sung by heav'nly harbingers bright,
Fraught with tidings of boundless delight;
Christ the Saviour has come.
Silent night! hallow'd night!
Earth awake, silence break,
High your anthems of melody raise,
Heav'n and earth in full chorus of praise;
Peace forever shall reign.
