Silent Night! Hallowed Night!

lyricist: Annie Howe, 1884
Composer: Horatio Palmer

Silent night! hal­lowed night!

Silent sleep

calm and deep;

Softly glit­ters bright Beth­le­hem’s star

Beckoning Is­ra­el’s eye from afar

Where the Sav­ior is born

Where the Sav­ior is born.

Silent night! hal­lowed night!

On the plain wake the strain

Sung by heav­en­ly har­bin­gers bright

Fraught with tid­ings of heav­en­ly light

Christ

the Sav­ior

has come

Christ

the Sav­ior

has come.

Silent night! hal­lowed night!

Earth awake

si­lence break!

High your an­thems of me­lo­dy raise;

Sing

ye mor­tals

your live­li­est praise

Peace for­ev­er shall reign

Peace for­ev­er shall reign.
