Glad O Little Town of Bethlehem song lyrics

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 praises sing to God the King and peace to men on Earth

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 tell

O come to us, abide with us, our Lord Emmanuel, Emmanuel
