Verse 1:
O [G] little town of [C] Bethlehem
How still [D7] we see thee lie
[A] Above [F] thy [E] deep and [Am] dreamless sleep
The [D7] silent stars go [G] by
Yet in thy dark street [B7] shineth
The everlasting [B7] Light
The [G] hopes and fears of [C] all the years
Are [G] met in [D7] thee to[G] night
Verse 2:
For [G] Christ is born of [C] Mary
And ga[D7] thered all above
While [G] mor[F] tals [E] sleep, the [Am] angels keep
Their [D7] watch of wond'ring [G] love
O morning stars, to[B7] gether
Proclaim the holy [B7] birth
And [G] praises sing to [C] God the King
And [G] peace to [D7] men on [G] earth
Verse 3:
How [G] silently, how [C] silently
The wond[D7] rous Gift is giv'n
So [G] God [F] im[E] parts to [Am] human hearts
The [D7] blessings of His [G] heav'n
No ear may hear His [B7] coming
But in this world of [B7] sin
Where [G] meek souls will re[C] ceive Him still
The [G] dear Christ [D7] enters [G] in
Verse 4:
O [G] holy Child of [C] Bethlehem
Descend [D7] on us, we pray
Cast [G] out [F] our [E] sin, and [Am] enter in
Be [D7] born in us to[G] day
We hear the Christmas [B7] angels
The great glad tidings [B7] tell
Oh, [G] come to us, [A] abide with us
Our [G] Lord [D7] Emmanuel[G]
