Silent night

Silent night, holy night! All is calm, all is bright.

Round you Virgin, Mother and child,

Holy Infant so tender and mild, Sleep in heavenly peace.

Silent night, holy night! Shepherds quake at the sight.

Glory streams from Heaven afar.

Heavenly hosts sing Alleluia

Christ the Saviour is born, Christ the Saviour is born.

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.
