《O Little Town of Bethlehem》歌词

[00:00:00] O Little Town of Bethlehem - The Regency Choir

[00:00:00] Written by：John McCarthy

[00:00:11] Oh little town of Bethlehem how still we see thee lie

[00:00:21] Above thy deep and dreamless sleep the silent stars go by

[00:00:33] Yet in thy dark streets shineth the everlasting light

[00:00:44] The hopes and fears of all the years are met in thee tonight

[00:00:58] For Christ is born of Mary and gathered all above

[00:01:09] While mortals sleep the angels keep their watch of wondering love

[00:01:21] Oh morning stars together proclaim thy holy birth

[00:01:32] And praises sing to God the king and peace to men on earth

[00:01:48] How silently how silently the wondrous gift is giv'n

[00:02:00] So God imparts to human hearts the blessings of his heav'n

[00:02:11] No ear may hear his coming but in this world of sin

[00:02:23] Where meek souls will receive him still the dear Christ enters in

[00:02:41] Oh holy child of Bethlehem descend to us we pray

[00:02:52] Cast out our sin and enter in be born in us today

[00:03:03] We hear the Christmas angels the great glad tidings tell

[00:03:14] Oh come to us abide with us our lord emmanuel
