         E            Em/E     F#m      A              E             B7         E
O      lit - tle    town of   Bethle - hem, how still we    see thee lie.
For   Christ is born of    Mar -     y, and,      gathered  all ab -   ove
How silent -   ly, how    silent -   ly the       wondrous gift is    giv'n!

                        C#           F#m                        E            B7            E
Above thy       deep and dreamless sleep the silent      stars go     by;
While mortals sleep, the angels keep their    watch of wond'ring love.
So God im -    parts to    human hearts the    blessings of his        heav'n.

                   F#m            G#m            A                       G#
Yet in thy    dark streets shineth the   everlasting        Light.
O morning  stars, to -     gether pro - claim the holy   birth,
No ear may hear his       coming; but in this world of sin,

       E                      Em/E    F#m         A             E                  B7         E
The hopes and        fears of  all the       years are  met in          thee to - night.
And praises            sing to   God the     King, and peace to      men on  earth.
Where meek souls will re -  ceive him, still the     dear Christ enters     in.
