jon thurlow - o little town of bethlehem lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
o little town of bethlehem
how still we see thee lie
above thy deep and dreamless sleep
the silent stars go by

[chorus 1]
yet in thy dark streets shineth
the everlasting light
the hopes and fears of all the years
are met in thee tonight

[verse 2]
for christ is born of mary
and gathered all above
while mortals sleep, the angels keep
their watch of wondering love

[chorus 2]
o morning stars together
proclaim the holy birth
and praises sing to god the king
and peace to men on earth

[interlude]

[verse 3]
how silently, how silently
the wondrous gift is given
so god imparts to human hearts
the blessings of his heaven

[chorus 3]
no ear may hear his coming
but in this world of sin
where meek souls will receive him still
the dear christ enters in

[verse 4]
o holy child of bethlehem
descend to us, we pray
cast out our sin and enter in
be born to us today

[chorus 4]
we hear the christmas angels
the great glad tidings tell
o come to us, abide with us
our lord emmanuel

[outro]
our lord emmanuel
