"Silent Night" (German: "Stille Nacht, heilige Nacht") is a popular Christmas carol, composed in 1818 by Franz Xaver Gruber to lyrics by Joseph Mohr in the small town of Oberndorf bei Salzburg, Austria.
lyrics
SILENT NIGHT
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 "Alleluiah";
Christ the Saviour is born,
Christ the Saviour is born.
Silent night, holy night;
Son of God, love's pure light;
Radiant beams from Thy holy face,
With the dawn of deeming grace;
Jesus, Lord at Thy birth,
Jesus, Lord at Thy birth.
