Lyrics How Still the Starry Night - Emu Music

How still the starry night above
How still the earth below
How small the greatest gift of love
The world has ever known
The fullness of the deity
A borrowed manger fills
The God of all eternity
Beneath the Bethl'hem hills

How still He lies in Mary's arms
The long-expected Christ
His voice the raging sea will calm
The dead He'll raise to life!
A ring of thorns will crown Him
Our suff'ring Servant King
The Saviour of the world is born
To save us from our sin

How still the heart today that bows
Before our Prince of Peace
What joy to lay our burdens down
Each one at Jesus' feet!
So let us all adore Him
And gladly do His will
Receive the Christ who came to us
How quietly, how still
