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 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 led by the light of faith serenely beaming with glowing hearts by his cradle we stand so led by light of the star sweetly gleaming here came the wise men from far distant lands the king of kings is born the world rejoices in all our trials born to be our friend 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 divine1
