lieAbove thy deep and dreamless sleepThe silent
stars go byYet in thy dark streets shinethThe
everlasting LightThe hopes and fears of all the
yearsAre met in thee tonight

O morning stars togetherProclaim the holy
birthAnd praises sing to God the KingAnd Peace
to men on earth For Christ is born of MaryAnd
gathered all aboveWhile mortals sleep, the
angels keepTheir watch of wondering love

souls will receive him still,The dear Christ
enters in.
