Gerry Rafferty - Silent Night 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
Heavenly hosts sing Alleluia!
Christ, the Saviour is born
Christ, the Saviour 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

    Look this up, brothers and sisters, it is true...this song, Silent NIght (Stille Nacht in German) stopped world war 1. Cold. Caused a cease fire on the Western Front...The war had to be re- started after German and Allied soldiers heard one another singing this song on christmas night in 1917..the stopped shooting...met on the battle ground, collected their dead, exchanged presents and fought no more until their high commands demanded it. Praise God with MUSIC! 4 results.

    rickytleg you are admiring the admirable...and that means you have your head on straight. ..religious or not. and that's good enough for this rather zealous fella. IF everybody swore allegiance to something good, as you are, the world would be in fine shape.
