Silent Night
Silent Night, holy night, All in Calm
all is bright. Round yon virgin mother and child;
Holy infant, so tender and mild, Sleep in heavenly peace;
Sleep in heavenly peace.
Silent night, holy night, Shepherds quake at the sight. Glories stream from heaven afar, Heavenly hosts sing
"Alleluia. Christ the Savior is born; Christ the Savor is Born."
Silent night, holy night, wondrous star, lend thy light. With the angels, let us sing, Alleluia to our King.
Christ the Savior is born;
Silent night, holy night, Son of God, love's pure light. Radiant beams from Thy holy face, With the dawn of redeeming grace. Jesus, Lord, at Thy birth;
Jesus, Lord, at Thy birth.
Jesus, Lord, at Thy birth.

On this holy night, I wanted to share the story of how
the hymn 'Silent Night' was written.
Thank you for visiting My Cozy Corner.
