O Holy Night
The stars are brightly shining
it is the night
of our dear saviors birth

Long lay the world
in sin and error pining
'til he appeared
and the soul felt it's worth

The thrill of hope
the weary world rejoices
for yonder breaks
a new and glorious morn

oh fall on your knees
oh hear the angels voices
oh night divine
oh night oh night divine

O Holy Night
The stars are brightly shining
this is the night
of our dear saviors birth

oh fall on your knees
oh hear the angels voices

oh night divine
oh night oh night divine


Rhydian Roberts Profile


Rhydian Roberts (24) is a classically trained singer from Powys, Wales who auditioned in Cardiff. His voice type is baritone and he has had vocal training for the past seven years. He is a graduate of Birmingham City University (formerly the University of Central England in Birmingham) and at school played trumpet and cornet. Roberts has appeared in singing competitions before - since the age of five he has regularly competed in the annual Urdd Eisteddfod, and in 2007 won two first prizes.

Roberts played rugby for his school, attends the gym daily and is currently a personal trainer. He used to be the strongest bench presser in Wales during his teens but gave up weight lifting for a career in music. During his time on the show there was controversy over the way in which producers edited footage to make him appear, what Roberts calls, a "pantomime villain". He also received highly critical comments from judge, Sharon Osbourne. As a Welsh speaker Roberts has recorded messages and interviews for Radio Cymru, recording an audio diary for the station's Dylan a Meinir Show and has also appeared on S4C shows such as Wedi 7. Although he was the bookmaker's clear favourite to win, Roberts finished second in the competition
