Silent night, holy night! Oh, the weather outside is frightful, All is calm, all is bright. But the fire is so delightful, Round yon Virgin, Mother and Child. And since we’ve no place to go Holy infant so tender and mild, Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow. Sleep in heavenly peace, X2 It doesn’t show signs of stopping, Silent night, holy night! And I brought some corn for popping. Shepherds quake at the sight. The lights are turned way down low, Glories stream from heaven afar Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow. Heavenly hosts sing Alleluia, When we finally kiss goodnight, Christ the Savior is born! How I’ll hate going out in the storm Christ the Savior is born But if you will just hold me tight, Silent night, holy night! All the way home I’ll be warm. Son of God love’s pure light. Now the fire is slowly dying, Radiant beams from Thy holy face And my dear we’re still goodbye-ing With dawn of redeeming grace, But as long as you love me so, Lord, at Thy birth X2 Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow.
