<p>Peaceful the wondrous night,<br>
Peaceful and holy,<br>
Under the silv&#8217;ry light,<br>
Gleaming afar.<br>
Faithfully watching there,<br>
Shepherds so lowly,<br>
Over the hills so fair,<br>
Saw glory&#8217;s star.</p>
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
<p class="refrain">Hail to the starry night,<br>
Sparkling with glory;<br>
Angels on wings of light,<br>
Thronging the sky.<br>
Hail to that starry night!<br>
Wondrous its story:<br>
Jesus the Prince of Light,<br>
Came from above.</p>
<p>Come with that shepherd band,<br>
Come to the manger;<br>
Join in the chorus grand,<br>
Glory to God!<br>
Worship the holy Child,<br>
Wonderful Stranger,<br>
Give to the Undefiled,<br>
Glory and laud.</p>
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
<p>Sweet favor, thus to bow,<br>
Love&#8217;s treasure bringing,<br>
Gratefully yielding now,<br>
Life&#8217;s joyful praise.<br>
Hear from the heav&#8217;nly height,<br>
Glad echoes ringing,<br>
Blessing and pow&#8217;r and might,<br>
Through endless days.</p>
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
