O helga natt - frälsning och frihet - O holy night - hope and light

Jer. 29:11, Joh. 1:5 , Isaiah 9:2 (26.12.2012 Nasta ♥ Dzimitry Dashkevich wedding - Congratulations! “Нічога сабе!”)

"O helga natt, o helga stund för världen,
då Gudamänskan till jorden steg ned!
För att försona världens brott och synder,
för oss han dödens smärta led.
Och hoppets stråle går igenom världen,
och ljuset skimrar över land och hav.

Folk, fall nu neder, och hälsa glatt din frihet.
|: O helga natt, du frälsning åt oss gav.
O helga natt, du frälsning åt oss gav.:|






Ty frälsar'n krossat våra tunga bojor
Vår jord är fri, himlen öppen nu är
Uti din slav du ser en älskad broder,
och se, din ovän blir dig kär
Från himlen bragte frälsaren oss friden,
för oss han nedsteg i sin stilla grav.

Folk, fall nu neder, och hälsa glatt din frihet.
|: O helga natt, du frälsning åt oss gav.
O helga natt, du frälsning åt oss gav."

O holy night (lyrics)

"O Holy Night!
The stars are brightly shining,
It is the night of our dear Saviours birth;
Long lay the world in sin and error pining,
'Til He appeared and the soul felt its worth.
A thrill of hope the weary world rejoices,
For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn;
Fall on your knees,
Oh, hear the angels voices!
O night divine, O night when Christ was born!
O night, O holy night,
O night divine!

V2
Led by the light of faith serenely beaming,
With glowing hearts by His cradle we stand;
So led by light of a star sweetly gleaming,
Here came the wise men from Orient land.
The King of kings lay thus in lowly manger,
In all our trials born to be our Friend;
He knows our need,
To our weakness is no stranger.
Behold your King, before Him lowly bend!
Behold your King, before Him lowly bend!

V3
Truly He taught us to love one another;
His law is love and His gospel is peace;
Chains shall He break, for the slave is our brother,
And in His name all oppression shall cease.
Sweet hymns of joy in grateful chorus raise we,
Let all within us praise His holy name;
Christ is the Lord,
Oh, praise His name forever!
His powr and glory evermore proclaim!
His powr and glory evermore proclaim!"
