354. Holy night! peaceful night!

1 Holy night! peaceful night!
All is dark, save the light,
Yonder where they sweet vigil keep
O'er the Babe who in silent sleep,
Rests in heavenly peace,
Rests in heavenly peace.

2 Holy night! peaceful night!
Only for shepherds' sight,
Came blest visions of Angel throngs,
With their loud Alleluia songs,
Saying, JESUS is come,
Saying, JESUS is come.

3 Holy night! peaceful night!
Child of heav'n! O! how bright
Thou didst smile on us when Thou wast born;
Blessed indeed was that happy morn,
Full of heavenly joy,
Full of heavenly joy.
