Shades of silent night dividing, Bursts the glory from above, Down the stream of brightness gliding, Comes the messenger of love. To the shepherds lowly telling Of the Christ expected long. While the sudden anthem swelling Fills the glowing heav'n with song. Fills the glowing heav'n with song. 2. Heav'n will guard their flocks from danger, Scatter'd o'er the moist green sward, While the stream of brightness gliding, Hie to greet their new born Lord. Awe and love maternal blending Fill the Blessed Virgin's heart; While with rev'rent gesture bending, Kneel these humble men apart, Kneel these humble men apart. 3. Not alone do men unlearned, Bow the Holy Child before, Sages who for truth long yearning, Heav'n's true Sun at length adore, So our songs proclaim a story Kings of old have long'd to know, Tell of Christ, the Prince of Glory, Born this night, for high and low, Born this night for high and low.
