It's not just for Christmas time............Oh the sweet sound of children's voices singing....

................................

1. 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 world1 rejoices,
For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn;

Chorus
Fall on your knees, Oh hear the angel voices!
O night divine! O night when Christ was born.
O night, O holy night, O night divine.

2. Led by the light of Faith serenely beaming;
With glowing hearts by his cradle we stand:
So, led by light of a star sweetly gleaming,
Here come the wise men from Orient land,
The King of Kings lay thus in lowly manger,
In all our trials born to be our friend;

Chorus
He knows our need, To our weakness no stranger!2
Behold your King! Before Him lowly bend!
Behold your King! your King! before him bend!

3. 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!

Chorus
Christ is the Lord, then ever! ever praise we!3
His pow'r and glory, evermore proclaim!
His pow'r and glory, evermore proclaim!

I have thought before that some songs were just too good to only hear them once a year; and this is my favorite Christmas hymn; and my favorite version is by Evie:

I agree, beautiful - and Christmas music is some of the only modern Christian music I actually like, so I'm not against listening to some of it year-round

I actually really love Celine Dion's version of this too - it's very graceful.

Me too! I was just listening to Celine's version Sunday morning after looking up the one by Evie.:)
