O little town of Bethlehem, how still we see thee lie!
Above thy deep and dreamless sleep the silent stars go by.
Yet in the dark streets shineth the everlasting light;
The hopes and fears of all the years are met in thee tonight.
Oh morning stars together, proclami the holy birth.
And praises sing to God the king, and peace to men on earth.
For Christ is born by Mary, and gathered all above,
While mortals sleep, the angels keep their watch of wond'ring love.
Oh Bethlehem du kleine Stadt,
Wie stille liegst du hier.
Du schläfst und goldne Sternelein ziehn leise über dir.
Doch in den dunklen Gassen
Das ewge Licht heut scheint.
Für alle die da traurig sind und die zuvor geweint.
Für alle die da traurig sind und die zuvor geweint.
Writer(s): Max Steiner, Phillips Brooks, Lewis H. Redner
