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
Heavenly hosts sing Alleluia!
Christ the Savior is born
Christ the Savior is born!
Silent night, holy night
Son of God, love's pure light;
Radiant beams from thy holy face
With the dawn of redeeming grace
Jesus, Lord, at thy birth
Jesus, Lord, at thy birth
Silent night, holy night
Wondrous star, lend thy light;
With the angels let us sing
Alleluia to our King;
Christ the Savior is born
Christ the Savior is born!
