Lyrics

[00:00.680] O little town of bethlehem
[00:05.840] How still we see thee lie
[00:10.190]
[00:11.380] Above thy deep and dreamless sleep
[00:16.860] The silent stars go by
[00:22.580] Yet in thy dark streets shineth
[00:28.220] The everlasting light
[00:33.560] The hopes and fears of all the years
[00:39.230] Are met in thee tonight
[00:44.760]
[00:56.210] For Christ is born of Mary
[01:01.570] And gathered all above
[01:07.230] While mortals sleep the angels keep
[01:12.450] Their watch of wondering love
[01:18.050] O morning stars together
[01:24.090] Proclaim the holy birth
[01:29.380] And praises sing to god the king
[01:35.070] And peace to men on earth
[01:41.110]
[01:51.940] How silently how silently
[01:57.720] The wondrous gift is given
[02:01.560]
[02:02.440] So god imparts to human hearts
[02:08.550] The blessings of his heaven
[02:13.270]
[02:13.770] No ear may his his coming
[02:19.870] But in this world of sin
[02:24.850] Where meek souls will receive him still
[02:31.200] The dear Christ enters in
[02:36.930]
[02:47.490] O holy child of bethlehem
[02:52.590]
[02:53.290] Descend to us we pray
[02:57.380]
[02:58.380] Cast out our sin and enter in
[03:04.080] Be born to us today
[03:08.170]
[03:09.550] We hear the Christmas angels
[03:15.590] The great glad tidings tell
[03:20.060]
[03:20.690] O come to us abide with us
[03:26.740] Our lord emmanuel
[03:31.140]
[03:31.890] O come to us abide with us
[03:37.690] Our lord emmanuel
