[Verse] Lights are shimmering in the night Children's laughter pure and bright Snowflakes dancing in the air Christmas magic everywhere [Verse 2] Candles flicker warm and gold Tales of winter being told Hearts are open full of cheer Gods son is near oh so near [Chorus] Silent night a holy star Guiding all who wander far Joyful voices rising clear Gods son is near oh so near [Bridge] Echoes of an angel's song Fill the night so pure and strong Hope and love replace our fear Gods son is near oh so near [Verse 3] Families gather hand in hand Building castles in the sand Dreams are whispered in the ear Gods son is near oh so near [Chorus] Silent night a holy star Guiding all who wander far Joyful voices rising clear Gods son is near oh so near
