Traditional French Carol

O HOLY NIGHT
[C] O holy night, the [F] stars are brightly [C] shining;
It is the night of the [G7] dear Saviour's [C] birth.
[C] Long lay the world in [F] sin and sorrow [C] pining, [C7]
Till He a[Em]ppeared and the [B7] soul felt its [Em] worth.
A [G7] thrill of hope, the [C] weary world rejoices,
For [G7] yonder breaks a [C] new and glorious morn.
[Am] Fall on your [Em] knees,
O [Dm] hear the angel [Am] voices.
O [C] ni[G7]ght [C] di[F]vine,
O [C] night [G7] when Christ was [C] born.
O [G7] night [C] di[F]vine,
O [C] night [G7] when Christ was [C] born.
Led by the light of faith serenely beaming,
With glowing hearts by His cradle we stand.
So led by light of a star sweetly gleaming,
Here came the wise men from Orient land.
The King of kings lay thus in lowly manger,
In all our trials born to be our friend!
Am] Fall on your [Em] knees,
O [Dm] hear the angel [Am] voices.
O [C] ni[G7]ght [C] di[F]vine, O [C] night [G7] when Christ was [C] born.
O [G7] night [C] di[F]vine, O [C] night [G7] when Christ was [C] born.
Truly He taught us to love one another;
His law is love and His gospel is peace.
Chains shall He break for the slave is our brother
And in His Name all oppression shall cease.
Sweet hymns of joy in chorus raise we,
Let us praise His holy Name!
Christ it the Lord,
His name forever praise ye,
His power and glory ever more proclaim
His power and glory ever more proclaim
