O Holy Night Song
Lyrics: John Sullivan Dwight
Music: Adolphe Adam
✞ Verse 1
O holy night! The stars are brightly shining;
It is the night of our dear Savior’s birth.
Long lay the world in sin and error pining,
Till He appeared and the soul felt its worth.
A thrill of hope, the weary world rejoices,
For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn!
Refrain: O Holy Night full lyrics Music Original at Pilgrim-on-holyground.com
Fall on your knees!
Oh, hear the angel voices!
O night divine!
O night when Christ was born!
O night, O holy night!
O night divine!

✞ Verse 2:
Led by the light of faith serenely beaming,
With glowing hearts by His cradle we stand.
So led by light of a star sweetly gleaming,
Here came the wise men from Orient land.
The King of kings lay thus in lowly manger,
In all our trials born to be our Friend.
Refrain: words to o' Holy Night Song Lyrics Original at Pilgrim-on-holyground.com
He knows our need,
To our weakness is no stranger.
Behold your King! Before Him lowly bend!
Behold your King! Before Him lowly bend!

✞ Verse 3:
Truly He taught us to love one another;
His law is love and His Gospel is peace.
Chains shall He break, for the slave is our brother;
And in His name all oppression shall cease.
Sweet hymns of joy in grateful chorus raise we,
Let all within us praise His holy name.

Christ is the Lord!
O praise His name forever!
His power and glory
Ever more proclaim!
His power and glory

✞ Verse 2: Oh Holy Night Original Lyrics at Pilgrim-on-holyground.com
Humbly He lay, Creator come as creature,
Born on the floor of a hay-scattered stall;
True Son of God, yet bearing human feature,
He entered earth to reverse Adam’s fall.
In towering grace, He laid aside His glory,
And taught our hearts to see that God is love!
Refrain:
Fall on your knees!
Oh, hear the heavenly voices!
Oh night divine!
Oh night when Christ was born!
Oh night, O holy night!
Oh night divine!

His power and love shall evermore unite us,
His law is love and His gospel is peace.
He binds our wounds and none shall e’er divide us,
All men are brothers, His mercy shall not cease.
With joyful hearts we praise the newborn Savior,
Let all the earth exalt His holy name!
Refrain:
Christ is our Lord!
Oh praise His name forever!
His power and glory
Evermore proclaim!
His power and glory
Evermore proclaim!
