"Silent Night Silent Night"… is a famous composition of Austrian priest called Joseph Mohr. The poem was composed in 1816. When in 1818 during Christmas the organ at St. Nicholas Church in the village Oberndorf was broken, Joseph Mohr gave this poem to his friend Franz Xavier Gruber and the tune for Silent Night was composed.
Silent night, holy night
All is calm, all is bright
Round yon Virgin Mother and Child
Holy Infant so tender and mild
Sleep in heavenly peace
Sleep in heavenly peace
Silent night, holy night!
Shepherds quake at the sight
Glories stream from heaven afar
Heavenly hosts sing Alleluia!
Christ, the Saviour is born
Christ, the Saviour is born
Silent night, holy night
Son of God, love's pure light
Radiant beams from Thy holy face
With the dawn of redeeming grace
Jesus, Lord, at Thy birth
Jesus, Lord, at Thy birth "
