Lirieke
O Holy night! The stars are brightly shining
– O Heilige nag! Die sterre skyn helder
It is the night of our dear Savior’s birth
– Dit is die nag van ons liewe Verlosser se geboorte
Long lay the world in sin and error pining
– Lank lê die wêreld in sonde en fout pining
‘Til He appeared and the soul felt its worth
– Totdat Hy verskyn het en die siel sy waarde gevoel het
A thrill of hope the weary world rejoices
– ‘n opwinding van hoop die moeg wêreld verheug
For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn
– Want daar breek’n nuwe en glorieryke môre
Fall on your knees; O hear the Angel voices!
– Val op jou knieë; o hoor Die Engelstemme!
O night divine, O night when Christ was born
– O nag goddelike, O nag Toe Christus gebore is
O night, O Holy night, O night divine!
– O nag, O Heilige nag, o goddelike nag!
Led by the light of Faith serenely beaming
– Gelei deur Die lig Van Geloof wat rustig straal
With glowing hearts by His cradle we stand
– Met gloeiende harte by sy wieg staan ons
So led by light of a star sweetly gleaming
– So gelei deur die lig van’n ster wat soet skyn
Here come the Wise Men from Orient land
– Hier kom Die Wyse Manne Uit Die Oosterse land
The King of kings lay thus in lowly manger
– Die Koning van die konings het dus in’n nederige krip gelê
In all our trials born to be our friend
– In al ons beproewinge gebore om ons vriend te wees
He knows our need, to our weakness is no stranger
– Hy ken ons behoefte, tot ons swakheid is geen vreemdeling
Behold your King; before Him lowly bend
– Kyk, jou Koning, buig voor Hom nederig
Behold your King; before Him lowly bend
– Kyk, jou Koning, buig voor Hom nederig
Truly He taught us to love one another;
– Waarlik, hy het ons geleer om mekaar lief te hê;
His law is love and His Gospel is Peace
– Sy wet is liefde en Sy Evangelie Is Vrede
Chains shall He break, for the slave is our brother
– Kettings sal hy breek, want die slaaf is ons broer
And in His name, all oppression shall cease
– En in sy naam sal alle verdrukking ophou
Sweet hymns of joy in grateful chorus raise we
– Soet liedere van vreugde in dankbare koor verhoog ons
Let all within us Praise His Holy name
– Laat almal In Ons Sy Heilige naam Loof
Christ is the Lord; O praise His name forever!
– Christus Is Die Here; o loof sy naam vir ewig!
His power and glory evermore proclaim
– Sy krag en heerlikheid verkondig altyd
His power and glory evermore proclaim
– Sy krag en heerlikheid verkondig altyd
