Silent Night - Lena Horne

Silent night!

Holy night!

All’s asleep, one sole light

Just the faithful and holy pair

Lovely boy-child with curly hair

Sleep in heavenly peace!

Silent night!

Holy night!

God’s Son laughs, o how bright

Love from your holy lips shines clear

As the dawn of salvation draws near

Jesus, Lord, with your birth!

Silent night!

Holy night!

Brought the world peace tonight

From the heavens' golden height

Shows the grace of His holy might

Jesus, as man on this earth!

Silent night!

holy night!

Where today all the might

Of His fatherly love us graced

And then Jesus, as brother embraced

All the peoples on earth!

Silent night!

Holy night!

Long we hoped that He might

As our Lord, free us of wrath

Since times of our fathers He hath

Promised to spare all mankind!

Silent night!

Holy night!

Sheperds first see the sight

Told by angelic Alleluja

Sounding everywhere, both near and far:

«Christ the Savior is here!»
