Silent Night
Lyrics by Father Joseph Mohr
Melody Composed by Franz Xaver Gruber
First Performed on Christmas Eve 1818
Silent night, holy night,
All is calm, all is bright,
Round yon virgin, mother and child,
Holy infant, so tender and mild:
Sleep in heavenly peace,
Sleep in heavenly peace.
Silent night, holy night,
Shepherds quake at the sight.
Glories stream, from Heaven afar,
Heavenly hosts sing alleluia,
Christ, the Savior is born,
Christ, the Savior is born.
Silent night, holy night,
Son of God, loves pure light,
Radiant beams from thy holy face,
With the dawn of redeeming grace:
Jesus, Lord at thy birth,
Jesus, Lord, at thy birth.
Merry Christmas!
