The Miracle of Silent Night
By Dorothy Travers Zisa
Silent Night, Holy Night
A starlit night of holiness and awe.
A glimmer of eternal love
Offering a timeless, infinite gift
Of supreme hallowed grace.
All Is Calm, All Is Bright
Prayer is a sea of tranquillity,
A tide of serentity that brings forth
An everlasting calm into our lives.
Holy Infant So Tender and Mild
Our thoughts, words, and deeds
Must be gentle and loving
As if we were thinking of, talking to,
And caring for the Infant Jesus.
Round Yon Virgin Mother and Child
Let us bring our fears, sorrows,
Joys and prayers and gratitude
As we kneel before Mary's Infant Son
In the chapel of our hearts.
Sleep in Heavenly Peace,
Sleep in Heavenly Peace,
The peace of the sleeping Infant
Prevails, in holiness and grace,
remaining with us always
As we live in heavenly peace.
Silent Night, Holy Night
Holiness is a flower
Born of silent courage-
Courage inspired by prayer
And the love of our Heavenly Father.
Shepherds Quake at Thy Sight
A sight to Behold! Fear not!
Embrace God's messenger,
The angel of the lord,
With love, humility, and trust.
Glories Stream from Heaven Afar
The glory of God shines
All about us, wherever we may be.
His illustrious light constantly projected
Upon the Screen of life.
Heavenly Hosts Sing Alleluia
Let us sing Alleluia
With the heavenly hierarchy
Let our Joyful voices be heard
By all people of all nations.
Christ the Savior Is Born,
Christ the Savior Is Born.
The Redeemer of all God's People,
The Christ Child, is born not only
In the town of Bethlehem
But in each of us.
Silent Night, Holy Night
The glorious brilliance of God's love
Glitters and gleams upon us
Like the star of Bethlehem
On that holy night of old.
Son of God, Love's Pure Light
What greater gift could God send us
Than His Infant Son wrapped
Not only in swaddling clothes,
But in purity, love, and truth?
Radiant Beams from Thy Holy Face
the sacred smile radiating
From the Infant's venerable face
Enlightens our faith with divine love.
With the Dawn of Redeeming Grace
Children of light, awake each dawn
In the splendor of God's holy love
And His sanctifying grace.
Jesus Lord, at Thy Birth,
Jesus Lord, at Thy Birth.
Each Christmas, we rejoice
For the infant Jesus is born.
Each new day, we rejoice
For the Christ Child grows
In wisdown, age, and grace within us
