E1:O lit_tle town of Beth_le_hem,/how still we see thee lie!/A_bove thy deep and dream_less sleep/the si_lent stars go by./Yet in thy dark streets shin_eth/the e_ver_last_ing Light;/The hopes and fears of all the years/are met in thee to_night.
E2:For Christ is born of Ma_2ry,/and gath_ered all a_bove,/While mor_tals sleep, the ang_els keep/their watch of wond_ering love./O mor_ning stars to_ge_ther,/pro_claim the ho_ly birth,/And prais_es sing to God the King,/and peace to men on earth!
E3:How si_lent_ly, how si_lent_ly,/the wond_rous Gift is giv'n;/So God im_parts to hu_man hearts/the bles_sings of His Heav'n./No ear may hear His com_ing,/but in this world of sin,/Where meek souls will re_ceive Him still,/the dear Christ en_ters in.
E4:Where chil_dren pure and hap_2py/pray to the bles_sèd Child,/Where mi_se_ry cries out to Thee,/Son of the moth_er mild;/Where cha_ri_ty stands watch_ing/and faith holds wide the door,/O come to us, a_bide with us,/our Lord Em_ma_nu_el!
