Don McLean - O Little Town Of Bethlehem Lyrics

Artist: Don McLean

Album: Miscellaneous

Genre: Folk

  • Songwriters: Phillips Brooks, Lewis Redner

O little town of Bethlehem
How still we see thee lie
Above thy deep and dreamless sleep
The silent stars go by

Yet in thy dark streets shineth
The everlasting light
The hopes and fears of all the years
Are met in thee tonight

For Christ is born of Mary
And gathered all above
While mortals sleep, the angels keep
Their watch of wondering love

O morning stars together
Proclaim the holy birth
And praises sing to God the King
And peace to men on earth

Yet in thy dark streets shineth
The everlasting light
The hopes and fears of all the years
Are met in thee tonight

O holy Child of Bethlehem
Descend to us we pray
Cast out our sin and enter in
Be born in us today

We hear the Christmas Angels
The great glad tidings see
For born to us in Bethlehem
Is Jesus Christ the King

Born to us in Bethlehem
Is Jesus Christ the King
