《The Star of Bethlehem》歌词

[00:00:06] how still we see thee lie;

[00:00:11] above thy deep and dreamless sleep

[00:00:17] the silent stars go by;

[00:00:22] yet in thy dark streets shineth

[00:00:28] the everlasting light.

[00:00:33] the hopes and fears of all the years

[00:00:39] are met in thee tonight.

[00:00:56] for christ is born of mary,

[00:01:02] and gathered all above,

[00:01:07] while mortals sleep the angels keep

[00:01:12] their watch of wondering love.

[00:01:18] o morning stars, together

[00:01:24] proclaim the holy birth !

[00:01:29] and praises sing to god the king,

[00:01:35] and peace to men on earth !

[00:01:52] how silently, how silently

[00:01:58] the wondrous gift is given !

[00:02:02] so god imparts to human hearts

[00:02:09] the blessings of his heaven.

[00:02:14] no ear may hear his coming;

[00:02:20] but in this world of sin,

[00:02:25] where meek souls will receive him still,

[00:02:31] the dear christ enters in.

[00:02:47] o holy child of bethlehem,

[00:02:53] descend to us, we pray;

[00:02:58] cast out our sin and enter in,

[00:03:04] be born in us today.

[00:03:10] we hear the christmas angels

[00:03:16] the great glad tidings tell,

[00:03:21] o come to us, abide with us,

[00:03:27] out lord emmanuel !

[00:03:32] o come to us, abide with us,

[00:03:38] out lord emmanuel !
