O Little Town of Bethlehem

CCLI #606984

O little town of Bethlehem How still we see thee lie

Above thy deep and dreamless sleep

The silent stars go byYet in thy dark streets shineth

The everlasting LightThe hopes and fears of all the

yearsAre met in thee tonight

For Christ is born of MaryAnd gathered all above

While mortals sleep The angels keep

Their watch of wondering loveO morning stars together

Proclaim the holy birthAnd praises sing to God the

KingAnd peace to men on earth

How silently how silentlyThe wondrous gift is givenSo God imparts to human

heartsThe blessings of His heavenNo ear may hear His coming

But in this world of sinWhere meek souls

Will receive Him stillThe dear Christ enters in

O holy Child of BethlehemDescend to us we pray

Cast out our sin and enter inBe born in us today

We hear the Christmas angels The great glad tidings tellO come to us abide with us

Away in a Manger

CCLI #606984

Away in a mangerNo crib for a bed

The little Lord JesusLaid down His sweet head

The stars in the skyLooked down where He lay

The little Lord JesusAsleep on the hay

The cattle are lowingThe baby awakes

But little Lord JesusNo crying He makes

I love Thee Lord JesusLook down from the skyAnd stay by my cradleTill morning is nigh

Be near me Lord JesusI ask Thee to stay

Close by me foreverAnd love me I pray

Bless all the dear childrenIn Thy tender care

And fit us for heavenTo live with Thee there
