15th Day of Musical Advent

O Holy Night
(Cantique de Noel)

O Holy Night!
The stars are brightly shining.
It is the night of our dear Savior's birth.
Long lay the world, in sin and error pining,
'Til he appeared and the soul felt it's worth.
A thrill of hope!
The weary world rejoices!
For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn!

Fall on your knees!
Oh hear the angel voices!
O night divine, o night
when Christ was born!
O night divine!
O night, o night divine!

Truly he taught us to love one another.
His law is love and his gospel is peace.
Bonds shall he make until we all are brothers.
And in his name all oppression shall cease.
Sweet hymns of joy
In grateful chorus raise we
Let all within us 
Praise his holy name!

Fall on your knees!
Oh hear the angel voices!
O night divine, o night
when Christ was born!
O night divine!
O night, o night divine!

O night divine!
Divine!

O Holy Night
