Verse 1:
O [G]little town of [C]Bethlehem
How still [D7]we see thee lie
[A]Above [F]thy [E]deep and [Am]dreamless sleep
The [D7]silent stars go [G]by
Yet in thy dark street [B7]shineth
The everlasting [B7]Light
The [G]hopes and fears of [C]all the years
Are [G]met in [D7]thee to[G]night
Verse 2:
For [G]Christ is born of [C]Mary
And ga[D7]thered all above
While [G]mor[F]tals [E]sleep, the [Am]angels keep
Their [D7]watch of wond'ring [G]love
O morning stars, to[B7]gether
Proclaim the holy [B7]birth
And [G]praises sing to [C]God the King
And [G]peace to [D7]men on [G]earth
Verse 3:
How [G]silently, how [C]silently
The wond[D7]rous Gift is giv'n
So [G]God [F]im[E]parts to [Am]human hearts
The [D7]blessings of His [G]heav'n
No ear may hear His [B7]coming
But in this world of [B7]sin
Where [G]meek souls will re[C]ceive Him still
The [G]dear Christ [D7]enters [G]in
Verse 4:
O [G]holy Child of [C]Bethlehem
Descend [D7]on us, we pray
Cast [G]out [F]our [E]sin, and [Am]enter in
Be [D7]born in us to[G]day
We hear the Christmas [B7]angels
The great glad tidings [B7]tell
Oh, [G]come to us, [A]abide with us
Our [G]Lord [D7]Emmanuel[G]
