Silent Night, Holy Night Lyrics

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.

Silent night, holy night!
Shepherds quake at the sight.
Glories stream from heaven afar
Heavenly hosts sing Alleluia,
Christ the Savior is born!
Christ the Savior is born.

Silent night, holy night!
Son of God love's pure light.
Radiant beams from Thy holy face
With dawn of redeeming grace,
Jesus Lord, at Thy birth.
Jesus Lord, at Thy birth.

silent night holiest night
darkness flies, all is light
shepards hear he angel sing
hallelujah, hail the king
Jesus the savior is here
Jesus the savior is here

silent night holiest night
wondrous star lend thy light
with the angel let us sing
hallelujah to the king
Jesus the savior is here
Jesus the savior is here

silent night holiest night
guiding star, lend thy light
see the eastern magi bring
gifts and homage to their king
Jesus the savior is here
Jesus the savior is here

we must be thankful to have that song because in some parts of the world we can't evan mention the word Jesus, God, Bible, and christ. So we should be thanhful to have the word of Jesus Christ. So it might be time to repent of your sins and except the Lord Jesus Christ;because there is a Heaven and a Hell and if you don't except God then you might die and not go to Heaven.And if you have excepted the word then you will have a better life.Little stuff will get in your way but god will let you pass that trile.So please except the word of God, i beg please except the Lord. He will bring so much peace in your life .Thank you for reading this and i do hope with all my heart that you except;and i have faith to thank you and bye

I agree with Hannah from Bel Air Md 21014 (above me in the comments-her's is really long), that you should except the LORD. Look John 3:16 in your Bible, and it says " For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only son that whoever believes in Him, shall not perish, but have eternal life.'' I mean, think about it, God gave his only son, and had him killed (and brought back to life) to save US from OUR sins! It wasn't even his problem, but God was kind enough to do that. So everyone, START BELIEVING IN GOD TODAY! He truly is amazing!
