O Holy Night Songtext

von John Williams

O holy night, the stars are brightly shining
It is the night of our dear Savior's birth
Long lay the world, in sin and error pining
Till He appeared and the soul felt its worth
A thrill of hope, the weary world rejoices
For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn

Fall on your knees
O hear the angel voices
O night divine
O night when Christ was born
O night, O holy night
O night divine

Led by the light of Faith serenely beaming,
Here come the wise men from Orient land.
The King of Kings lay thus in lowly manger;
In all our trials born to be our friend.

Fall on your knees
O hear the angel voices
O night divine
O night when Christ was born
O night, O holy night
O night divine

(Yes, there is a line missing in the second verse, but that is how it is on the album).
