O Holy Night – Christmas Carol

Verse1
C                 F                  C
O holy night, the stars are brightly shining
                        G            C
It is the night of the dear Savior’s birth
C                     F             C
Long lay the world in sin and error pining
          Em             B             Em
Till He appeared and the soul felt its worth
  G                   C
A thrill of hope, the weary soul rejoices
    G               C
For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn

Chorus
Am           Em       Dm             Am
Fall on your knees, O hear the angel voices
  C  G  C  F      C   G                 C
O night divine, O night when Christ was born
  G        C  F  C     G          C
O night, O holy night, O night divine!

Verse2
C                   F              C
Led by the light of faith serenely beaming
                           G         C
With glowing hearts by His cradle we stand
C                    F            C
So led by light of a star sweetly gleaming
              Em            B      Em
Here came the wise men from Orient land
    G                 C
The King of kings lay thus in lowly manger
   G              C
In all our trials born to be our friend

Verse3
C                     F         C
Truly He taught us to love one another
                        G         C
His law is love and His Gospel is peace
C                             F            C
Chains shall He break for the slave is our brother
           Em         B              Em
And in His Name all oppression shall cease
      G               C
Sweet hymns of joy in grateful chorus raise we
    G             C
Let all within us praise His holy Name
