Lyrics Sample

In the silent still of this night,

By this lamp gently glowing;

This child somehow knowing was promised to be;

Meek and gentle is He.

In this moment God keeps His Word

Father now and forever;

So we now may never be lost or alone,

For this child is our home.

Raise up your heart to God in the highest!

This baby so heaven blessed

Is born to this world’s unrest.

Beneath the stars, He is the holy child.

Call His name Jesus! Alleluia!
