Title: O Little Town of Bethlehem (192)

O Little Town of Bethlehem (192)

  D              G              D        A        D
O little town of Bethlehem, how still we see thee lie!

 D    D/C B        Em                   D/A    A        D
Above thy deep and dreamless sleep, the silent stars go by.

D          A/C# Bm      F#          Bm     Em/G F#
Yet in thy dark streets shineth the everlasting Light;

    D                  G                 D      A    D
The hopes and fears of all the years are met in thee tonight.

D             G       D           A            D
For Christ is born of Ma- ry, and gathered all above,

 D    D/C     B          Em                D/A      A         D
While mortals sleep, the angels keep their watch of wond'ring love.

D          A/C#  Bm  F#      Bm        Em/G  F#
O morning stars, together proclaim the holy birth,

    D               G                 D        A      D
And praises sing to God the King, and peace to men on earth.

D                 G            D        A       D
How silently, how silently the wondrous Gift is giv'n!

 D    D/C   B     Em               D/A       A      D
So God imparts to human hearts the blessings of His Heav'n.

D          A/C#  Bm  F#          Bm      Em/G     F#
No ear may hear His coming, but in this world of sin,

      D                 G                    D           A      D
Where meek souls will receive Him still, the dear Christ enters in.

D               G             D       A      D
O holy Child of Bethlehem, descend to us, we pray;

 D    D/C    B       Em           D/A     A    D
Cast out our sin and enter in, be born in us today.

D           A/C#  Bm  F#         Bm    Em/G         F#
We hear the Christmas angels the great glad tidings tell;

  D            G                 D      A    D
O come to us, abide with us, our Lord Emmanuel.
