O Holy Night<\/p>\n

O holy night! The stars are brightly shining,
\nIt is the night of our dear Saviour\u2019s birth.
\nLong lay the world in sin and error pining,
\n\u2018Til He appear\u2019d and the soul felt its worth.
\nA thrill of hope the weary world rejoices,
\nFor yonder breaks a new and glorious morn.<\/p>\n

Fall on your knees!<\/strong> O hear the angel voices!
\nO night divine, O night when Christ was born;
\nO night divine, O night, O night Divine.<\/p>\n

Led by the light of Faith serenely beaming,
\nWith glowing hearts by His cradle we stand.
\nSo led by light of a star sweetly gleaming,
\nHere come the wise men from Orient land.
\nThe King of Kings lay thus in lowly manger;
\nIn all our trials born to be our friend.<\/strong><\/p>\n

He knows our need, to our weakness is no stranger,<\/strong>
\nBehold your King! Before Him lowly bend!
\nBehold your King, Before Him lowly bend!<\/p>\n

Truly He taught us to love one another;
\nHis law is love and His gospel is peace.
\nChains shall He break for the slave is our brother;
\nAnd in His name all oppression shall cease.
\nSweet hymns of joy in grateful chorus raise we,
\nLet all within us praise His holy name.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Christ is the Lord! O praise His Name forever,<\/strong>
\nHis power and glory evermore proclaim.
\nHis power and glory evermore proclaim.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
