David James Fritch - O Holy Night Songtexte

Oh 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 appear'd and the soul felt its worth.
A thrill of hope the weary world rejoices,
For yon-der breaks a new and glorious morn.
Fall on your knees! Oh hear the angels voices!
O night divine, O night when Christ was born,
O night divine, O night, O night divine.

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 come the wise men from the orient land.
The King of kings lay thus in lowly manger,
In all our trials, born to be our friend.
He knows our need; to our weak-ness is no stranger.
Behold your King! Before Him lowly bend!
Behold your King! Your King! Be-fore Him bend.

(Choir)
Christ is our Savior, He's our King!
Praise Him ever more!

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 pow'r and glory ever more proclaim
His pow'r and glory ever more proclaim!
