Still the Night, Holy the Night !
sleeps the world; hid from sight,
Mary and Joseph in stable bare
watch o'er the Child beloved and fair, 
sleeping in heavenly rest
sleeping in heavenly rest.

Still the Night, Holy the Night !
Shepherds first saw the light,
Heard resounding clear and long, 
Far and near, the angel-song,
'Christ the Redeemer is here !'
'Christ the Redeemer is here !'

Still the Night, Holy the Night !
Son of God, O how bright
Love is smiling from Thy face !
Strikes for us now the hour of grace,
Saviour, since Thou art born !
Saviour, since Thou art born !
