Peaceful The Wondrous Night Composer(s): Eliza E. Hewitt; E.G. Snelling
Peaceful the wondrous night, peaceful and holy Under the silv'ry light, gleaming afar Faithfully watching there, shepherds so lowly Over the hills so fair, saw glory's star
Hail to the starry night, sparkling with glory Angels on wings of light thronging the sky Hail to that starry night, wondrous its story Jesus the Prince of Light came from above
Come with that shepherd band, come to the manger Join in the chorus grand, Glory to God! Worship the holy Child, wonderful stranger Give to the undefiled, glory and laud
Hail to the starry night, sparkling with glory Angels on wings of light thronging the sky Hail to that starry night, wondrous its story Jesus the Prince of Light came from above
Sweet favour, thus to bow, love's treasure bringing Gratefully yielding now, life's joyful praise Hear from the heavenly height, glad echoes ringing Blessing and power and might, through endless days
Hail to the starry night, sparkling with glory Angels on wings of light thronging the sky Hail to that starry night, wondrous its story Jesus the Prince of Light came from above
