O little town of Bethlehem,
Am C E7 E7
How still we see thee lie.

Above thy deep and dreamless sleep
Am E7 Am E7
The silent stars go by;
Am C D F
Yet in thy dark streets shineth
Am C E7 E7
The everlasting Light.
Am C D F
The hopes and fears of all the years
Am E7 Am
Are met in thee tonight.

For Christ is born of Mary,
Am C E7 E7
And, gathered all above

While mortals sleep, the angels keep
Am E7 Am E7
Their watch of wond’ring love.

O morning stars, together
Am C E7 E7
Proclaim the holy birth,

And praises sing to God the King,

And peace to men on earth.

Am C D F
How silently, how silently
Am C E7 E7
The wondrous gift is giv’n!

So God imparts to human hearts
Am E7 Am E7
The blessings of his heav’n.

But in this world of sin,

Where meek souls will receive him, still

The dear Christ enters in.

Oh holy child of Belthelem

Our Lord, Emalual
