C        Dm        C            
O little town of Bethlehem
    C        G7       C
How still we see thee lie
 C        Dm        C
Above thy deep and dreamless sleep
    C      G        C
The silent stars go by
C          F            C     G
Yet in thy dark streets shineth
C        F       G
The everlasting Light
 C                     Dm        C
The hopes and fears of all the years
    C      G      C
Are met in thee tonight
 
 C        Dm        C
For Christ is born of Mary
    C        G7   C
And gathered all above
 C        Dm        C
While mortals sleep, the angels keep
      C        G         C
Their watch of wondering love
 C     F        C     G
O morning stars together
C        F       G
Proclaim the holy birth
 C                  Dm        C
And praises sing to God the King
    C        G      C
And Peace to men on earth
 
 C        Dm        C
How silently, how silently
    C        G7      C
The wondrous gift is given!
 C        Dm        C
So God imparts to human hearts
    C         G      C
The blessings of His heaven.
C          F        C     G
No ear may hear His coming,
C        F       G
But in this world of sin,
 C                     Dm        C
Where meek souls will receive him still,
    C           G      C
The dear Christ enters in.
 
  C             Dm
O holy Child of Bethlehem
  C        G7     C
Descend to us, we pray
  C        Dm        C
Cast out our sin and enter in
   C       G    C
Be born to us today
C           F         C     G
We hear the Christmas angels
C        F       G
The great glad tidings tell
 C             Dm        C
O come to us, abide with us
    C      G   C
Our Lord Emmanuel
