O Holy Night

VERSE 1
O holy night! The stars are brightly shining;
It is the night of the dear Savior’s birth.
Long lay the world in sin and error pining,
Till He appeared and the soul felt its worth.

PRE-CHORUS 1
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!

VERSE 2
Truly He taught us to love on another;
His law is love and His gospel is peace.
Chains shall He break, for the slave is our brother,
And in His name all oppression shall cease.

PRE-CHORUS 2
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 pow’r and glo-ry e-vermore proclaim!

PRE-CHORUS 3
The King of kings lay thus in lowly manger,
In all our trials born to be our Friend.

CHORUS 3
He knows our need—to our weakness is no stranger.
Behold your King, before Him lowly bend!

CHORUS 2
Christ is the Lord! O praise His name forever!
His pow’r and glo-ry e-vermore proclaim!
His pow’r and glo-ry e-vermore proclaim!
