O Little Town of Bethlehem

O Little Town of Bethlehem - Susie Tallman
Oh 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.
For Christ is born of Mary,
and gathered all above
While mortals sleep the angels
keep their watch of wondering love
Oh morning stars together,
proclaim the holy birth.
And praises sing to God our king,
and peace to all on earth.
Oh 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.
are met in thee tonight.
