[Avril]

O holy night, the stars are brightly shining;

It is the night of my dear savior's birth!

Long lay the world in sin and error pining,

Till he appeared and the soul felt its worth.

[Chantal]

A thrill of hope, the weary world rejoices,

For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn.

[Avril]

Fall on your knees, o hear the angel voices!

O night divine, o night when christ was born!

O night divine, o night, o night divine!

[Chantal, 3rd verse of the original]

Truly he taught us to love one another;

His law is love and his gospel is peace.

Chains shall he break for the slave is our brother

And in his name all oppression shall cease.

[Avril]

Sweet hymns of joy in grateful chorus raise we,

Let all within us praise his holy name

[Avril, chantal a high pitched accompaniment]

Christ is the king! that ever, ever praise we!

His power and glory evermore proclaim

His power and glory evermore proclaim

[Avril] oh-oh, oh, oh

[Avril, chantal a high pitched accompaniment]

His power and glory evermore proclaim

His power and glory evermore proclaim
