[00:00.00] Oh, Little Town of Bethlehem
[00:06.10] How still we see thee lie;
[00:11.42] Above thy deep and dreamless sleep
[00:17.27] The silent stars go by;
[00:22.93] Yet in thy dark streets shineth
[00:28.47] The everlasting light.
[00:33.98] The hopes and fears of all the years
[00:39.63] Are met in thee tonight.
[00:46.08]
[00:56.47] For Christ is born of Mary,
[01:02.00] And gathered all above,
[01:07.50] While mortals sleep the angels keep
[01:12.81] Their watch of wondering love.
[01:18.34] O morning stars, together
[01:24.24] Proclaim the holy birth !
[01:29.49] And praises sing to God the King,
[01:35.51] And peace to men on earth !
[01:40.17]
[01:52.21] How silently, how silently
[01:58.02] The wondrous gift is given !
[02:02.95] So God imparts to human hearts
[02:09.09] The blessings of His heaven.
[02:14.25] No ear may hear His coming;
[02:20.24] But in this world of sin,
[02:25.33] Where meek souls will receive Him still,
[02:31.65] The dear Christ enters in.
[02:35.73]
[02:47.75] O holy Child of Bethlehem,
[02:53.64] Descend to us, we pray;
[02:58.72] Cast out our sin and enter in,
[03:04.53] Be born in us today.
[03:10.09] We hear the Christmas angels
[03:16.00] The great glad tidings tell,
[03:21.41] O come to us, abide with us,
[03:27.30] Out Lord Emmanuel !
[03:32.27] O come to us, abide with us,
[03:38.12] Out Lord Emmanuel !
[03:43.68]
