Oh lit tle (Csus)town of Beth le hem,

A bove your deep and dream less sleep, a gi ant star lights up the sky.

And while you’re ly ing in the dark,

there (Bb)shines an ev er last ing light,

for the King has left His throne,

and is (Bb)sleep ing in a man ger to night,

to night.

Oh Beth le hem, what you have missed while you were sleep ing, for (F)God be came a man and (C)stepped in to your world to day.

Oh Beth le hem, you (C)will go down in his to ry

as a (F)cit y with no room (C)for its King.

While you were sleep ing.

While you were sleep ing.

Oh lit tle (Csus)town of Je (C)ru sa lem, looks like an (Bb)oth er si lent night.

The (F)Fa ther gave His on ly Son; the (Dm)Way, the Truth, the Life had come.

But there (F)was no room for Him

in the (Dm)world He came to save.

U nit ed (Csus)States of A (C)mer i ca, looks like an (Bb)oth er si lent night,

as we’re sung to sleep by phi (C)los o phies that save the trees and kill the chil dren.

And while we’re ly ing in the dark,

for the Bride groom has re turned

and has (Bb)car ried His bride a way in the night,

in the night.

A mer ri ca, what will we miss while we are sleep ing?

Will (F)Je sus come a gain and (C)leave us slum b’ring where we lay?

A mer i ca, will (C)we go down in his to ry

as a (F)na tion with no room (C)for its King?

Will we be sleep ing?

Will we be sleep ing?

U nit ed (Csus)States of A (C)mer i ca, looks like an (Bb)oth er si lent night.
