O Little Town Of Bethlehem Songtext
von Shenandoah

Oh, 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
Oh, morning stars together, proclaim the holy birth
And praises sing to God the King, and peace to men on Earth

We hear the Christmas angels
The great glad tidings tell
O come with us, abide with us
Our Lord, Emmanuel
Our Lord, Emmanuel
