o holy night the stars are brightly shining it is the night of our dear savior s birth long lay the world in sin and error pining til he appears and the soul felt it s worth a thrill of hope the weary world rejoices for yonder breaks a new and glorious morn 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 truly he taught us to love one 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 sweet hymns of joy in grateful chorus raise we let all within us praise his holy name 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 o night divine o night o night divine
