F C C7 Em B7 Em Long lay the world in sin and error pin - ing, Till He ap - peared and the soul felt it worth. G7 C G7 C A thrill of hope, the weary soul rejoices, For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn. Am Em Dm Am C G7 C F C G7 C Fall on your knees, Oh, hear the angel voices! O night__ di - vine__, O night__ when Christ was born! G G7 C Dm C G7 C O night__, O ho - ly night, O night divine! >>header: <strong>Verse 2:</strong> C F C G C Led by the light of faith serenely beaming, With glowing hearts by His cradle we stand.
