This was the first song I decided to do for this additional 4 songs...and man, I should have thought threw doing this song in the key of E. That's high! Oh well, I think it turned out well, and I love keeping these songs simple...less is more! :)

lyrics

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 angels' voices
O night divine, O night when Christ was born
O night divine, O night, O night Divine

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 Orient land

The King of Kings, lay thus in lowly manger
In all our trials born to be our friend

He knows our need our weakness is no stranger
Behold your King! Before Him lowly bend
Behold your King, Before Him lowly bend

Truly He taught 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 Lord! O praise His name forever
His power and glory evermore proclaim
His power and glory evermore proclaim

He knows our need, and hears our voice
So sing and fall on your knees, praise the King
Behold our King
He came to die for thee
Yeah, behold for He’s our King

Behold, He's our King
