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

Yet in thy dark streets shineth 
The everlasting light 
The hopes and fears of all the years 
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 peace to men on earth 

Yet in thy dark streets shineth 
The everlasting light 
The hopes and fears of all the years 
Are met in thee tonight 

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

We hear the Christmas Angels 
The great glad tidings see 
For born to us in Bethlehem 
Is Jesus Christ the King 

Born to us in Bethlehem 
Is Jesus Christ the King
