Little town so unsuspecting
Darkness covers while you’re resting
And hides the hope hearts are hurting for

In the night a light is shining
Heaven’s hope of love is dawning
And angels sing “Joy to the world”

Little town of Bethlehem
God’s love has come down
He brings joy and peace and love
Oh listen little town
In your dark street shines a holy light
Little town

Little town so spent so tired
Busy with the wrong desires
God has sent salvation in His Son

Emmanuel still here with us
Greatest gift the love of Jesus
Tell the world that new life has begun

Little town of Bethlehem
Jesus Christ is born
Tell the people hope has come
On this Christmas morn
In your dark street shines the holy light
Little town

O little town of Bethlehem
How still we see thee lie
Above thy deep and dreamless sleep
The silent stars go by

Yet in thy dark street shineth
The everlasting light
The hopes and fears of all the years
Are met in thee tonight

Little town of Bethlehem
God’s love has come down
He brings joy and peace and love
Oh listen little town

Little town of Bethlehem
Jesus Chris is born
Tell the people hope has come
On this Christmas morn
In your dark street shines the holy light
Still today Jesus shines so bright
Little town
Little town
Little town
