Jaci Velasquez - O Little Town Of Bethlehem lyrics

rate me

O little town of Bethlehem

How still we see thee lie

Above thy deep and dreamless sleep

<http://alwaysjacichristmas.tripod/picwhitedress10.jpg> 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

For Christ is born of Mary and gathered all above

While mortals sleep, the angels keep

Their watch of wondering love

Oh morning stars together proclaim the holy birth

And praises sing to God the King

And peace to men on earth

How silently, how silently the wonderous 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 meeks souls will receive Him still

The dear Christ enters in

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

The great glad tidings tell

O come to us, abide with us

Our Lord Emmanuel (Emmanuel...Emmanuel)
