All in the Silent Night

lyricist: Eliza Hewitt, 1906
Composer: Isaac Meredith

All in the si­lent night

Numberless an­gels bright

Came on their wings of light

Thronging the deep blue sky;

Beautiful songs they sang

Wonderful ech­oes rang;

Glory to Christ our king

Glory to God on high.

Glory

glo­ry to God!

Glory

glo­ry to God

Glory

all glo­ry to God on high!

Let ev­ery list­en­ing heart re­ply;

Glory

glo­ry to God!

Glory

glo­ry to God

Far let the joy­ful tid­ings fly;

All glo­ry to God on high!

Join in the song so sweet

Now with the shep­herds meet

Haste to the Sav­ior’s feet

Worship the Child di­vine;

Come with the men of old

Nor let the heart with­hold

Aught of its pur­est gold;

All to the King re­sign.

Broken the shades of night;

Hail to the Day­spring bright!

Spreading the bless­èd light

Tell of a Sav­ior born

Till all mank­ind shall see

Mercy

so great and free

Till on this earth shall be

Dawn of eter­nal morn.
