Refrain:
A thrill of hope the weary world rejoices,
For yonder breaks a new and cloudless morn.
Fall on your knees! Oh, hear the angel voices!
O night divine, Oh night when Christ was born;
O night, divine! O night, O night divine!
- O Holy Night! The stars are brightly shining,
It is the night of the dear Saviour’s birth.
Long lay the world in sin and error pining.
Till He appeared and His soul felt its worth. - Led by the light of faith serenely beaming,
With glowing hearts by His cradle we stand.
Over the world a star is sweetly gleaming,
Now came the wisemen from Orient land.
