O Little Town of Bethlehem - Emmylou Harris (爱美萝·哈里斯)

O little town of Bethlehem

How still we see the lie

Above the deep and dreamless sleep

The silent stars go by

Yet in the dark streets shineth

The everlasting Light

The hopes and fears of all the years

Are met in thee tonight

For Christ is born of Mary

And gathered all above

While mortals sleep the angels keep

Their watch of wondering love

O morning stars together

Proclaim the holy birth

And praises sing to God the King

And peace to men on earth

How silently how silently

The wondrous gift is given

So God imparts to human hearts

The blessings of his heaven

No ear may hear his coming

But in this world of sin

Where meek souls will receive him still

The dear Christ enters in

The hopes and fears of all the years

Are met in the tonight
