C F C G C
O little town of Bethlehem, how still we see thee lie!
C C7 A Dm C G C
Above thy deep and dreamless sleep, the silent stars go by.
C G Am E7 Am Dm E7
Yet in thy dark streets shineth the everlasting Light;
C F C G C
The hopes and fears of all the years are met in thee tonight.
C F C G C
For Christ is born of Ma- ry, and gathered all above,
C C7 A Dm
While mortals sleep, the angels keep
C G C
their watch of wond'ring love.
C G Am E7 Am Dm E7
O morning stars, together proclaim the holy birth,
C F C G C
And praises sing to God the King, and peace to men on earth.
C F C G C
How silently, how silently the wondrous Gift is giv'n!
C C7 A Dm C G C
So God imparts to human hearts the blessings of His Heav'n.
C G Am E7 Am Dm E7
No ear may hear His coming, but in this world of sin,
C F
Where meek souls will receive Him still,
C G C
the dear Christ enters in.
C F C G C
O holy Child of Bethlehem, descend to us, we pray;
C C7 A Dm C G C
Cast out our sin and enter in, be born in us today.
C G Am E7 Am Dm E7
We hear the Christmas angels the great glad tidings tell;
C F C G C
O come to us, abide with us, our Lord Emmanuel.
C A7 Dm G G7 C
O come to us, abide with us, our Lord Emmanuel.
