O Holy Night...day 2

Holy Night...Day 2 This song makes tears come to my eyes EVERY time I hear or try to sing it! It reminds me that even though my Grampa Culbertson bah humbuged Christmas on the outside he was the biggest giddiest kid too! One Christmas season WAY back when he sang this for our church Christmas program and when I hear it I always hear him singing it not the singer. This was one song I wished I was able to sing with him but never got the chance. My grampa had such a beautiful voice and this was something we had in common. We would sing and sing on our way to Church on family trips or just on the weekends at grampa and gramma's house.

O holy night, the stars are brightly shining,

It is the night of the dear Savior’s birth;

Long lay the world in sin and error pining,

Till He appeared and the soul felt its worth.

A thrill of hope the weary world rejoices,

For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn

Chorus

Fall on your knees, Oh hear the angel voices!

O night divine, O night when Christ was born!

O night, O holy night, O night divine.

2. 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 come the wise men from Orient land

The King of Kings lay thus in lowly manger

In all our trials born to be our friend.

Chorus

He knows our need, He guardeth us from danger

Behold your King! Before Him lowly bend!

Behold your King! Before Him lowly bend!

3. 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 grateful chorus raise we,

Let all within us praise His holy name.

Chorus

Christ is the Lord, O praise His name forever!

His pow'r and glory evermore proclaim!

His pow'r and glory evermore proclaim!

May the words bless you as they do me~

Love you all and much!
