As midnight hush so calm and still Was brooding o'er the vale and hill, The shepherds 'neath the starry light Were watching o'er their flocks by night. But a wondrous word, Thro' the silence heard, It was "Glory be to God, to God on high!" [Chorus:] Glory to God, be God on high, Peace unto earth, unto earth is nigh; Glory, to God, List the reply! It is glory to God, unto God on high. 2. Bright starbeams crown'd the dreaming plain, The night wind breath'd a soft [Refrain], O'er David's town dark shadows crept, As shepherds still their vigil kept. But a wondrous word, Thro' the silence heard, It was "Glory be to God, to God on high!" [Chorus] 3. O holy night, O night divine! What tender joy, what peace is thine! For 'mid thy silence seraphs come To herald one from heav'nly home. But a wondrous word, Thro' the silence heard, It was "Glory be to God, to God on high!"
