Shades of Silent Night Dividing

Author: G. W. Druce Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #6010 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Hymnal Title: The Cyber Hymnal Lyrics: 1. Shades of silent night dividing, Bursts the glory from above; Down the stream of brightness gliding, Comes the messenger of love; To the shepherds lowly, telling Of the Christ expected long, While the sudden anthem, swelling Fills the flowing heav’n with song. 2. Heav’n will guard their flocks from danger Scattered o’er the moist green sward, While the swains to Bethlehem’s manger, Hie to greet their newborn Lord. Awe and love maternal blending, Fill the blessèd virgin’s heart; While with reverent gesture bending, Kneel these humble men apart. 3. Not alone do men unlearnèd Bow the holy Child before: Sages who for truth long yearnèd Heav’ns true Sun at length adore. So our songs proclaim a story Kings of old have longed to know; Tell of Christ, the Prince of Glory, Born this night, for high and low. Languages: English Tune Title: GEE

Druce Hymnal: The Helper in Sacred Song #173 (1889) Hymnal Title: The Helper in Sacred Song First Line: Shades of silent night dividing Lyrics: 1 Shades of silent night dividing, Bursts the glory from above, Down the stream of brightness gliding, Comes the messenger of love; To the shepherds lowly telling Of the Christ expected long; While the sudden anthem swelling Fills the glowing heav'n with song. 2 Heav'n will guard their flocks from danger, Scatter'd o'er the moist green sward, While the swains to Bethl’m’s manger, Hie to greet their new born Lord. Awe and love maternal blending Fill the Blessed Virgin's heart; While with rev'rent gesture bending, Kneel these humble men apart. 3 Not alone do men unlearned, Bow the Holy Child before; Sages who for truth long yearned, Heav'n's true Sun at length adore. So our songs proclaim a story Kings of old have longed to know, Tell of Christ, the Prince of Glory, Born this night for high and low. Tune Title: [Shades of silent night dividing]
