| Lyrics: | Oh little town of Bethlehem, how still we see thee lie
Above thy deep and dreamless sleep the
silent stars go by
Yet in thy dark streets shineth, the everlasting light
The hopes and
fears of all the years are met in thee tonight.
For Christ is born of Mary, and gathered
all above
While mortals sleep the angels keep their watch of wondering love
Oh morning
stars together, proclaim thy holy birth.
And praises sing to God the king, and peace to men on
earth.
Oh little town of Bethlehem, how still we see thee lie
Above thy deep and
dreamless sleep the silent stars go by
Yet in thy dark streets shineth, the everlasting
light
The hopes and fears of all the years are met in thee tonight |
