Silent Night

Silent Night

Silent night! Holy night! All is calm, all is bright!
Round yon Virgin Mother and Child!
Holy Infant, so tender and mild.
Sleep in heavenly peace!
Sleep in heavenly peace!

Silent night! Holy night! Shepherds quake at the sight!
Glories stream from heaven afar, Heav'nly host sing, "alleluia!"
Christ, the Savior is born!
Christ, the Savior is born!

Silent night! Holy night! Son of God, love's purelight!
Radiant beams from Thy holy face!
With the dawn redeeming grace,
Jesus, Lord at Thy birth!
Jesus, Lord at Thy birth!
