It is the night of the dear savior’s birth.

Long lay the world in sin and error pining,

For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn!

Fall on your knees!

O, night - when Christ was born!

With glowing hearts by His cradle we stand.

Here come the wise men from Orient land.
    D                 G
The King of kings lay thus in lowly manger
    D              G
In all our trials, born to be our friend.

Fall on your knees!

Truly, He taught us to love one another;

His law is love and His gospel is peace.
G                              C            G
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;
     D            G
Let all within us praise his holy name!

Fall on your knees!
   Am               Em
