D5 E5 O little town of Bethlehem D5 A5 D5 How still we see thee lie D5 B5 E5 Above thy deep and dreamless sleep D5 A5 D5 The silent stars go by D5 E5 F#5 Yet in thy dark streets shineth E5 G5 F#5 The everlasting Light D5 E5 The hopes and fears of all the years D5 A5 D5 Are met in thee tonight For Christ is born of Mary And gathered all above While mortals sleep, the angels keep Their watch of wondering love O morning stars together Proclaim the holy birth And praises sing to God the King And Peace to men on earth How silently, how silently The wondrous gift is given! So God imparts to human hearts The blessings of His heaven. No ear may his His coming, But in this world of sin, Where meek souls will receive him still, The dear Christ enters in. O holy Child of Bethlehem Descend to us, we pray Cast out our sin and enter in Be born to us today We hear the Christmas angels The great glad tidings tell O come to us, abide with us Our Lord Emmanuel
