Gregorian O Holy Night Lyrics

O Holy Night!
The stars are brightly shining
It is the night of the dear Saviour's birth

Long lay the world in sin and error pining
Till He appeared and the Spirit felt its worth
A thrill of hope the weary world rejoices
For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn

Fall on your knees! Oh, hear the angel voices!
O night divine, the night when Christ was born O night, o night divine!
O Holy Night!

The stars are brightly shining
It is the night of the dear Saviour's birth
Sweet hymns of joy in grateful raise we
With all our hearts we praise his holy name

Christ is the Lord! Then ever, for ever praise we
O night, the night
O night, o holy night!
