O Little Town of Bethlehem - Seattle Men's Chorus/Philandros

O little town of Bethlehem

How still we see thee lie

Above thy deep and dreamless sleep

The silent stars go by

Yet in thy dark streets shineth

The everlasting light

The hopes and fears of all the years

Are met in thee tonight

O morning stars together

Proclaim the holy birth

And praises sing to God our King

And peace to men on earth

For Christ is born of Mary

And gathered all above

While mortals sleep the angels keep

Their watch of wondering love

Where children pure and happy

Pray to the blessed child

Where misery cries out to thee

Son of the mother mild

Where charity stand watching

And faith hope wide the door

The dark night wakes

The glory breaks

And christmas comes once more
