Selah / Rose of Bethlehem / O Holy Night

Selah ( , also transliterated as selāh) is a word used frequently in the Hebrew Bible, often in the Psalms, and is a difficult concept to translate.

O Holy Night - Lyrics


O Holy night! The stars are brightly shining
It is the night of our dear Savior'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 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 divine
O 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 (fall, fall) on your knees
O hear the angel voices
O night divine
O night when Christ was born
O night divine, O night divine
