[Verse 1: Brian McKnight]
Virgin Mary was laden with child
The prophecy had been foretold
The One who had come to save our lives
Was born in the manger so low

[Pre-Chorus: Michael Sembello & Brian McKnight]
And as sure as the stars are in the sky
Valleys low and mountains high
The newborn King was born
In Bethlehem tonight

[Chorus: Michael Sembello & Brian McKnight]
Silent night, holy night
Bethlehem tonight
Silent night, holy night

[Verse 2: Brian McKnight]
Three kings brought gifts from far away
A boy came to play upon his drum
(Pa-rum-pa-pum-pum, rum-pa-pum-pum)
Skeptics saw truth and had nothing to say
The wonderful Savior had come

[Pre-Chorus: Michael Sembello & Brian McKnight]
And as sure as the stars are in the sky
Valleys low and mountains high
The newborn King was born
In Bethlehem tonight
[Chorus: Michael Sembello & Brian McKnight]
Silent night, holy night
Bethlehem tonight
Silent night, holy night

[Bridge: Brian McKnight & Michael Sembello]
Behold our Redeemer from sin
There was no room in the inn
But still He left His throne on high
Shed His blood to save our lives
Our lives
In Bethlehem tonight

[Outro: Michael Sembello & Brian McKnight]
Silent night, holy night
Silent night, holy night
Silent night, holy night
Silent night, holy night
Silent night, holy night
Silent night, holy night
Silent night, holy night
Silent night, holy night
