Songtext von Bethlehem

O 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 O morning stars together Proclaim the holy birth And angel sing to God the king And peace to men on earth O little town of bethlehem O little town of bethlehem O little town of bethlehem
