O Holy Night



On the radio earlier today, I heard O Holy Night.  Besides being a beautiful song, I love the words.  The Good News of Jesus and his redemption is in this song.



The world lay in sin and error.  
He (Jesus) appeared and a thrill of hope came. 
Chains shall He break and in His Name all oppression shall cease (because of his death on the cross.) 
His law is love and His gospel is peace.
In light of this good news, how can I not fall on my knees and praise His holy name?

May you know the Good News of Jesus this Christmas and fall on your knees worshiping him.

O Holy Night
Oh holy night! The stars are brightly shining
It is the night of our dear Saviour's birth
Long lay the world in sin and error pining
Till He appeared and the soul felt it's worth
A thrill of hope the weary world rejoices
For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn.

Fall on your knees! Oh, hear the angels 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
Let all within us praise His holy name

Christ is the Lord! O praise His Name forever
His power and glory evermore proclaim

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
