O, Little Town of Bethlehem (1946 Version)
~ 1946 Versio
O, 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 ligh
the hopes and fears of all the year
are met in thee tonight.
For Christ is born of Mar
and gather all abov
while mortals sleep the angels kee
their watch of wond'ring love
O, morning stars togethe
proclaim the holy birth
And praises sing to God our Kin
and peace to men on earth!
O, Holy Child of Bethlehe
descend to us we pra
cast out our sin, and enter in, b
born in us today!
We hear the Christmas Angels
the great glad tidings tel
O, come to us, abide with us
Our Lord Emanuel!
