252. Silent Night (Noche de Paz)

1 Silent night! holy night!
All is calm, all is bright
Round yon Virgin Mother and child!
Holy Infant so tender and mild,
Sleep in heavenly peace,
Sleep in heavenly peace.

2 Silent night! holy night!
Shepherds quake at the sight;
Glories stream from heaven afar;
Heav'nly hosts sing "Alleluia!
Christ the Savior is born,
Christ the Savior is born."

3 Silent night! holy night!
Son of God, love's pure light
Radiant beams from thy holy face,
With the dawn of redeeming grace,
Jesus, Lord, at thy birth,
Jesus, Lord, at thy birth.

SPANISH -
1 Noche de paz, noche de amor;
Todo duerme en derredor.
Entre los astros que esparcen su luz
Bella anunciando al niñito Jesús.
Brilla la estella de paz.
Brilla la estrella de paz.

2 Noche de paz, noche de amor;
Mira qué gran resplandor
Luce en el rostro del Niño Jesús,
En el pesebre del mundo la luz,
Brilla la estella de paz.
Brilla la estrella de paz.

3 Noche de paz, noche de amor;
Al Divino Salvador
Que por nosotros nació en un portal.
Himnos cantemos de amor celestial.
¡Gloria por siempre al Señor!
¡Gloria por siempre al Señor!
