Lyrics 歌詞
1.　O holy night! The stars are brightly shining,
It is the night of our dear Savior's birth.
Long lay the world in sin and error pining,
Till He appeared and the soul felt its worth.
A thrill of hope, the weary world rejoices,
For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn.
Fall on your knees! O hear the angel voices!
O night divine, O night when Christ was born;
O night divine, O night, O night Divine.
さやかに星はきらめき
御子(みこ)イェス生まれ給う
長くも闇路(やみじ)をたどり
メシヤを待てる民に
新しき朝は来たり
さかえある日は昇る
いざ聞け　御使(みつか)い歌う
妙(たえ)なる天(あま)つ御歌(みうた)を
めでたし　清し今宵(こよい)

2.　Led by the light of Faith serenely beaming,
With glowing hearts by His cradle we stand.
So led by light of a star sweetly gleaming,
Here come the wise men from the Orient land.
The King of Kings lay thus in lowly manger;
In all our trials born to be our friend.
He knows our need, to our weaknesses no stranger,
Behold your King! Before Him lowly bend!
Behold your King, Before Him lowly bend!
輝く星を頼りに
旅せし博士のごと
信仰の光によりて
我らも御前(みまえ)に立つ
馬槽(うまぶね)に眠る御子は
君の君　主の主なり
我らの重荷を担い
安きを賜(たま)うためにと
来たれる神の子なり

3.　Truly He taught us to love one another;
His law is love and His gospel is peace.
Chains shall He break for the slave is our brother;
And in His name all oppression shall cease.
Sweet hymns of joy in grateful chorus raise we,
Let all within us praise His holy name.
Christ is the Lord! O praise His Name forever,
His power and glory evermore proclaim.
His power and glory evermore proclaim.
「互いに愛せよ」と説き
平和の道を教え
すべてのくびきをこぼち
自由を与え給う
げに主こそ平和の君
類(たぐい)なき愛の人
伝えよ　その福音(おとずれ)を
広めよ　聖(きよ)き御業(みわざ)を
たたえよ　声の限り
