Author: Rev. Joseph Mohr Hymnal: The Hymnal #132 (1950) Meter: 6.6.8.8.6.6 Lyrics: 1 Silent night! holy 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 Peaceful night! holiest night!
Darkness flies, all is light;
Shepherds hear the angels sing:
"Alleluia! hail the King!
Christ the Saviour is here!
Jesus the Saviour is here!"
3 Silent night! holiest night!
Child of heaven, O how bright
Thou didst smile on us when Thou wast born!
Blest indeed that happy morn,
Full of heavenly joy!
Full of heavenly joy!
Amen. Topics: Jesus Christ the Lord His Birth; Christ Birth and Infancy of; Christ Nativity, The; Christmas; Nativity, the Tune Title: STILLE NACHT
