Lyrics Of O Little Town of Bethlehem by Mahalia Jackson
O little town of Bethlehem
How still we see thee lie Above thy deep and dreamless sleep The silent stars go by Yet in they dark streets shineth The everlasting light The hopes and fears of all the years Are met in thee tonightFor Christ is born of MaryO morning stars together Proclaim the holy birth And praises sing to God the king And peace to men on earth
And gathered all above While mortals sleep, the angels keep Their watch of wondering loveHow 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 inO 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 Emanuel
