Píseň: O Holy Night

Interpret:
Kenny Rogers
Album:
Christmas Greetings
O holy night, the stars 
are brightly shining
It is the night of the 
dear Saviour's birth
Long lay the world 
in sin and error pining
Till He appeared 
and the Soul felt its worth.


A thrill of hope, 
the weary world rejoices
For yonder breaks 
a new and glorious morn'
Fall on your knees, 
oh hear the angel voices
Oh night divine, 
oh night when Christ was born
Oh night divine,
oh night, oh night divine.


Truly He taught us 
to love one another
His law is love 
and His gospel is peace
Chains shall he break, 
for the slave is our brother
And in His name 
all oppression shall cease.


Sweet hymns of joy 
in grateful chorus raise we
With all of them must 
praise His holy name
Christ is the Lord! Then ever, 
ever praise we
His power and glory, 
ever more proclaim.


His power and glory, 
ever more proclaim...


Oh-oh..., oh-oh..., 
oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, 
oh-oh-oh-oh...
Oh-oh..., oh-oh...
