How still we see thee lie !

A-bove thy deep and dream-less sleep

The si-lent stars go by;

Yet in thy dark streets shin-eth,

The ev-er-last-ing Light;

The hopes and fears of all the years

Are met in thee to-night.
For Christ is born of Ma-ry

And gath-ered all above

While mor - tals sleep, the an - gels keep

Their watch of won-dering love.

O morn -ing stars, to - geth- er,

Pro - claim the ho - ly birth,

And prais-es sing to God the King,

And peace _to men on earth!
How si-lently, how si-lently

The Won-dorus gift is given!

So God im-parts to hu-man hearts

The bless-ings of his heaven.

No ear may hear his com ing,

But in this world of sin,

Where meek souls will re-ceive him, stil

The dear Christ en-ters in.
O ho-ly Child of Beth-le-hem,

De-scend to us, we pray;

Cast out our sin, and en - ter in;

Be born in us to-day.

We hear the Christ-mas an - gels

The great glad ti-dings tell;

O come to us, a-bide with us,

Our Lord Em-man-u-el !

A-men
