Lyrics
Verse 1
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.
Verse 2
How silently, how silently, The wondrous gift is giv'n! So God imparts to human hearts The blessings of His heav'n; No ear may hear His coming; But in this world of sin, Where meek souls will receive Him, still The dear Christ enters in.
