Christmas Carols Home: O Holy Night (originally called "Cantique de Noël")
O Holy Night
Lyrics
Music by John S. Dwight
Music by Adolphe C. Adam
Arranged by Jay Rouse
O holy night the stars are brightly shining,
It is the night of the dear Savior’s birth.
Long lay the world in sin and error pining,
‘Til 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!
O hear the angel voices!
O night divine!
O night when Christ was born!
O night, O holy night, O 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!
His power and glory evermore proclaim!
Fall on your knees!
O hear the angel voices!
O night divine, O night when Christ was born!
O night, divine, O night, O night divine.
O, holy night, O holy night.
Hayley Westenra - O Holy Night (Live)

O Holy Night!
The stars are brightly shining
It is the night of the dear Savior's birth!
Long lay the world in sin and error pining
Till he appear'd and the soul felt its worth.
A thrill of hope the weary soul 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 divine
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
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

For years Hayley's performances of this famous carol have been legendary. Her Christmas concerts always sell out. Such is the appeal of this incredible, once in a lifetime artist. This is another performance fron her concert at the Bath Forum, 12 December 2009. It received a full standing ovation, Hayley's third in a week. What on earth more does this girl have to do to get noticed? Apart from selling her soul to someone like Simon Cowell that is. She is the best kept secret in music for sure.
