O, Holy Night Lyrics

O holy night, the stars are brightly shining
This is the night of our dear Saviour's birth
Long lay the world in sin and error pining
Til He appeared and the soul felt its worth
A thrill of hope the weary soul rejoices
For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn
Fall on your knees
O hear the angel voices
O night Divine!
O night when Christ was born
O night, O holy night
O night divine

Led by the light of faith serenely beaming
With glowing hearts by his cradle we stand
So led by the light of a star sweetly gleaming
Here came the wise men and from the Orient land
The King of kings lay thus in lowly manger
In all our trials born to be our friend
Fall on your knees
O hear the angel voices
O night Divine!
O night when Christ was born
O night, O holy night
O night Divine!

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
