Reba McEntire - Silent Night lyrics

(What's written in sentences and not verse at the beginning is what

Reba 

explains at the beginning, the rest is the song)



On Christmas Eve in 1818

A blizzard stranded the tiny village of Ogledorf

Nestled in the Austrian mountains

That same day the people of St. Nicholas' church found their organ

broken

So the priest and organist began composing a song that could be sung

without 

an organ yet beautiful enough to express their Christmas joy

All day and all night long they worked

And at midnight the gentle carol Silent Night was born

The pure clear tones echoed through the hills

And the world has been captured by the beauty of that simple song ever

since.



Silent NightSilent Night 

By Joseph Mohr



Silent night, holy night,

All is calm, all is bright.

Round yon Virgin Mother and Child, 

Holy infant so tender and mild,

Sleep in heavenly peace.

Sleep in heavenly peace.



Silent night, holy night,

Shepherds quake at the sight.

Glories stream from heaven afar,

Heav'nly hosts sing Alleluia;

Christ the Savior is born.

Christ the Savior is born.



Silent night, holy night,

Son of God, love's pure light.

Radiant beams from Thy holy face,

With the dawn of redeeming grace.

Jesus, Lord, at Thy birth. 

Jesus, Lord, at Thy birth
