  *++Lyrics:|\\
Silent night, holy night,\\
All is calm, all is bright;\\
Round yon Virgin Mother and child!\\
Holy Infant, so tender and mild,\\
Sleep in heavenly peace,\\
Sleep in heavenly peace.\\
\\
Silent night, holy night,\\
Shepherds quake at the sight;\\
Glories stream from heaven afar,\\
Heav'nly hosts sing, Alleluia!\\
Christ, the Savior, is born!\\
Christ, the Savior, is born!\\
\\
Silent night, holy night,\\
Son of God, love's pure light;\\
Radiant beams from Thy holy face,\\
With the dawn of redeeming grace,\\
Jesus, Lord, at Thy birth,\\
Jesus, Lord, at Thy birth.\\
\\

    *Josef Francis Mohr (1792-1848)
