O little town of Bethlehem
How still we see thee lieAbove thy deep and dreamless sleepThe silent stars go byYet in thy dark streets shinethThe everlasting lightThe hopes and fears of all the yearsAre met in thee tonight
For Christ is born of MaryAnd gathered all aboveWhile mortals sleep, the angels keepTheir watch of wondering love
O morning stars togetherProclaim thy holy birthAnd praises sing to God the KingAnd peace to men on earth
