Christmas Eve, Silent Night
It's all so very still tonight
The night air is crisp and clear
Snow is laying pure and bright
It's Christmas eve now everywhere
Snuggled up safe and warm in beds
Children dream sugar plum dreams
Fantasies run through their heads
As tomorrows happiness streams
On Christmas Eve (Silent night)
On Christmas Eve (Holy Night)
On Christmas Eve (All is calm)
On Christmas Eve (All is bright)
Outside the magic fills the air
The atmosphere comes alive
Silence strains through winters ears
For Christmas day's yet to arrive
On Christmas Eve (Silent night)
On Christmas Eve (Holy Night)
On Christmas Eve (All is calm)
On Christmas Eve (All is bright)
Every child awaits their treats
Toys and books and games and sweets
Cinnamon and candy canes
Barbie dolls, electric trains
On Christmas Eve (Silent night)
On Christmas Eve (Holy Night)
On Christmas Eve (All is calm)
On Christmas Eve (All is bright)
Round yon virgin Mother and Child
Holy infant so tender and mild
Sleep in heavenly peace
Sleep in heavenly peace
