O little town of Bethlehem, How still we see thee lie! Above thy deep and dreamless sleep The silent stars go by. How silently, how silently The wondrous gift is given! So God imparts to human hearts The blessings of his Heaven. Yet in thy dark streets shineth The everlasting light; The hopes and fears of all the years Are met in thee tonight. We hear the Christmas angels The great glad tidings tell; O come to us, abide with us, Our Lord Immanuel. O little town of Bethlehem, How still we see thee lie! Above thy deep and dreamless sleep The silent stars go by. Brooks
O little town of Bethlehem, How still we see thee lie! Above thy deep and dreamless sleep The silent stars go by.
How silently, how silently The wondrous gift is given! So God imparts to human hearts The blessings of his Heaven.
Yet in thy dark streets shineth The everlasting light; The hopes and fears of all the years Are met in thee tonight.
We hear the Christmas angels The great glad tidings tell; O come to us, abide with us, Our Lord Immanuel.
