O little town of Bethlehem, how still we see thee lie
Above thy deep and dream less sleep, the silent stars go by
Yet in thy dark streets shine the ever lasting Light
The hope sand fear so fall the years are met in thee tonight
Verse
For Christis Born of Mary, and ga there dall above,
While mortals sleep, the angels keep their watch of wond'ring love
O morning stars, together proclaim the holy birth
And praises sing to God the King, and peace to men on earth
Verse
How silently, how silently the wondro us Gif tis giv'n!
So God imparts to human hearts the blessings of His Heav'n.
No ear may hear His coming, but in this world of sin
Where meek souls Will receive Him still, the dear Christen ters in
Verse
O holy Child of Bethlehem, descend tous, we pray
Cast out our sin and enter in, be born in us today
We hear the Christmas angels the great glad tiding stell
O come tous, abide with us, our Lord Emmanuel
