Author: Joseph Mohr; John Freeman Young; Anonymous Hymnal: CGH2010 #134 (2010) Meter: Irregular Tune Title: STILLE NACHT Lyrics: 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.
Glory streams from heaven afar,
heavenly 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.
4 Silent night, holy night,
wondrous star, lend thy light;
with the angels let us sing
Alleluia to our King:
Christ the Savior is born,
Christ the Savior is born.
German:
1 Stille Nacht, heilige Nacht!
Alles schläft, einsam wacht
nur das traute, hochheilige Paar.
Holder Knabe im lockigen Haar,
schlaf in himmlischer Ruh',
schlaf in himmlischer Ruh!" Topics: God the Son Christmastide; Christian Year-Christmastide Languages: English
