Redner. publ.1868 (Starting note:a) O little town of Bethlehem, [F Fdim F Gm] How still we see thee lie; [F C7 F] Above thy deep and dreamless sleep, [F D7 Gm] The silent stars go by. [F C7 F] Yet in thy dark streets shineth [F F F#dim Gm G#dim A4 A7] The everlasting light; [Dm A F Gm A4 A] The hopes and fears of all the years [F Fdim F Gm] Are met in thee tonight. [F Bb F C7 F] For Christ is born of Mary, [F Fdim F Gm] And gather'd all above [F C7 F] While mortals sleep, the angels keep [F D7 Gm] Their watch of wond'ring love. [F C7 F] O morning stars together [F F F#dim Gm G#dim A4 A7] Proclaim the holy birth [Dm A F Gm A4 A] And praises sing to God the King [F Fdim F Gm] And peace to men on earth. [F C7 F]
