Verse 1

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.

Verse 2

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!

Verse 3

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.

Verse 4

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!
