O Little Town of Bethlehem

O 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

O morning stars together

Proclaim the holy birth

And praises sing to god the king

And peace to men

On earth

How silently

How silently

The wondrous gift is given

So god imparts

To human hearts

The blessings of his heaven

No ear may hear his coming

But in this world of sin

Where meek souls will

Receive him still

The dear christ

Enters in

O holy child of bethlehem

How still

We see thee lie

Above thy deep and

Dreamless sleep
