O Little Town Of Bethlehem

Phillips Brooks

F

Intro

The hopes and fears of all the years
Are met in thee to-night
#Verse 1
O little town of Beth-lehem
How still we see thee lie
Above thy deep and dream-less sleep
The si-lent stars go by
Yet in thy dark streets shineth
The ev-er-last-ing Light
The hopes and fears of all the years
Are met in thee to-night
#Verse 2
For Christ is born of Ma-ry
And gath-ered all a-bove
While mor-tals sleep the an-gels keep
Their watch of won-dering love
O morning stars to-gether
Pro-claim the ho-ly birth
And praises sing to God the King
And peace to men on earth
#Verse 3
How silent-ly how si-lently
The won-drous gift is given
So God imp-arts to hu-man hearts
The bless-ings of His heaven
No ear may hear His coming
But in this world of sin
Where meek souls will re-ceive Him still
The dear Christ en-ters in
#Verse 4
O holy Child of Beth-lehem
De-scend to us we pray
Cast out our sin and en-ter in
Be born in us to-day
We hear the Christ-mas angels
The great glad ti-dings tell
O come to us a-bide with us
Our Lord Em-man-u-el

Ending

O come to us a-bide with us
Our Lord Em-man-u-el
