O Little Town Of Bethlehem

Written by: Jenny Jarvis, Adam Jarvis, Philip Brooks, Vaughn Williams

Lyrics

O little town of Bethlehem, how still we see thee lie

Above thy deep and dreamless sleep the silent stars go by

Yet in the dark streets shineth the everlasting Light

The hopes and fears of all the years are met in thee tonight

How silently, how silently the wondrous gift is given

So God imparts to human hearts the blessings of His Heaven

No ear may hear His coming, but in this world of sin

Where meek souls will receive him still the dear Christ enters in

O come to us, abide with us, oh precious gift of Heaven

Be close to us, draw near to us, Our Lord Emmanuel

O come to us, abide with us, oh precious gift of Heaven

Be close to us, draw near to us, Our Lord Emmanuel

O holy child of Bethlehem, descend to us we pray

Cast out our sin and enter in, be born in us today

We hear the Christmas angels, and great glad tidings tell

O come to us, abide with us, Our Lord Emmanuel

O come to us, abide with us, Our Lord Emmanuel
