Adolphe Adam
O Holy Night
[Verse 1]
O Holy night! The stars were brightly shining
It was the night of the dear Savior's birth
Long lay the world in sin and error pining
'Til Christ appeared on the sin weary world
A song of hope the weary world rejoices
For now there breaks a new and glorious morn
Kneel and adore, O hear the Angel voices!
O night divine, O night when Christ was born
O night divine, O Holy night, O night divine!

[Verse 2]
Truly He taught that we should love each other
His law is love and His Gospel is Peace
Chains shall He break, for slave shall be 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
Ah, Christ is the Lord, we praise His name forever!
His power and glory we evermore proclaim
His power and glory evermore!
