Little Town

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 and angels keep their watch of wondering love
O morning stars together, proclaim the holy birth
And praises sing to God the King and Peace to men on earth

Little town with such great hope
You hold my King tonight

How silently, how silently, the wondrous gift is given
So God imparts to human hearts, the blessings of His heaven
No ear may hear His coming but in this world of sin
Where meek souls will receive him still, the dear Christ enters in

Little town with such great hope
You hold my King tonight
Little town with such great hope
You hold my King tonight
You hold my King tonight
