Silent night;
Holy night;
Wintry night;
Snowy night;
Starry night.
Manger sight;
Lantern light;
Lovely light;
Heavenly sight.
Christ babe’s plight;
Prophecy right;
Shepherds sight;
Angels white.
On a bed of straw and hay!
A new-born King just lay;
Born of a virgin, Aye!
Early on Christmas day.
Some Shepherds heard a Fay;
Heaven and earth looked gay;
Savior born, come what may!
Kings came to homage pay;
And in the divine way!
Joy, love, peace always stays;
This, the Bible says.
Nev’rtheless,
Humans fight!
