The A.M.E. Zion Hymnal ‎#93

93. Silent Night, Holy Night

1 Silent night, holy night,
All is calm, all is bright;
Round yon Virgin Mother and Child!
Holy Infant, so tender and mild,
Sleep in heavenly peace,
Sleep in heavenly peace.

2 Silent night, holy night,
Darkness flies, all is light;
Shepherds hear the angels sing,
"Alleluia! hail the King!
Christ the Saviour is born,
Christ the Saviour is born."

3 Silent night, holy night,
Son of God, love's pure light;
Radiant beams from Thy holy face,
With the dawn of redeeming grace,
Jesus, Lord, at Thy birth,
Jesus, Lord, at Thy birth.

4 Silent night, holy night,
Wondrous Star, lend thy light;
With the angels let us sing,
Alleluia to our King:
Christ the Savior is born,
Christ the Savior is born.

AMEN.
