1 Silent night, holy night! All is calm, all is bright 'Round yon virgin mother and child. Holy Infant so tender and mild, Sleep in heavenly peace, Sleep in heavenly peace. 2 Silent night, holy night! Shepherds quake at the sight; Glories stream from heaven afar; Heav'nly hosts sing "alleluia! Christ, the Savior, is born! Christ, the Savior, is born!" 3 Silent night, holy night!
