JOHNNY CASH lyrics : "Oh Little Town Of Bethlehem"

Oh, little town of Bethlehem
How still we see thee lie
Above thy deep and dreamless

Sleep the silent stars go by
Yet in they 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 the King

And peace to men on Earth



How silently, how silently
The wondrous gift is given
So God imparts to human hearts

The blessings of his heaven
No ear may hear his coming
But in this world of sin

Where meek souls
Will receive him still
The dear Christ enters in


Oh, holy child of Bethlehem
Descend to us we pray

Cast out our sin and enter in
Be born in us today
We hear the christmas angels

The great glad tidings tell
O come to us, abide with us
Our Lord Emanuel
