Verso 1

O little town of Bethlehem
How still we see thee lie
Above thy deep and dreamless sleep
The silent stars go by

Pré Refrão

Yet in thy dark streets shineth
The everlasting light

Coro

The hopes and fears of all the years
Are met in thee tonight

Verso 2

For Christ is born of Mary
And gathered all above
While mortals sleep
The angels keep their watch
Of wondering love

Pré Refrão

O morning stars together
Proclaim the holy birth

Coro

And praises sing to God the King
And peace to men on earth

Verso 3

How silently how silently
The wondrous gift is given
So God imparts to human hearts
The blessings of His Heaven

Pré Refrão

No ear may hear His calling
But in this world of sin

Coro

Where meek souls will receive Him still
The dear Christ enters in

Verso 4

O holy Child of Bethlehem
Descend to us we pray
Cast out our sin and enter in
Be born to us today

Pré Refrão

We hear the Christmas angels
The great glad tidings tell

Coro

O come to us abide with us
Our Lord Emmanuel

Coro

The hopes and fears of all the years
Are met in thee tonight
