Standard (EADGBE)

  OCh little tGown of AmBethlehem

 Looks like anotFher silent nCighGt Am F

CAbove your Gdeep and dreamless Amsleep

 A giant sFtar lights up the sCkyG Am F

 AnCd while you're lyGing in the dAmark

 There shFines an everlasting ligChtG Am F

CFor the GKing has left His thAmrone

 And is sFleeping in a manger tConGigAmht F

 OhC Bethlehem,G what you have miAmssed while you were slFeeping

 FCor God became a mGan

 And stepped iAmnto your world Ftoday

COh Bethlehem,G you will go dAmown in histFory

 As a Ccity with no Groom for its KAming

FWhile you were sleeCpiGngAm F

 While you were sleeCping

Oh little town of Jerusalem

Looks like another silent night

The Father gave His only Son

The Way, the Truth, the Life had come

But there was no room for Him in the world He came to save

Jerusalem, what you have missed while you were sleeping

The Savior of the world is dying on your cross today

Jerusalem, you will go down in history

As a city with no room for its King

While you were sleeping

While you were sleeping

United States of America

Looks like another silent night

As we're sung to sleep by philosophies

That save the trees and kill the children

And while we're lying in the dark

There's a shout heard 'cross the eastern sky

For the Bridegroom has returned

And has carried His bride away in the night

America, what will we miss while we are sleeping

Will Jesus come again

And leave us slumbering where we lay

America, will we go down in history

As a nation with no room for its King

Will we be sleeping

Will we be sleeping

United States of America

Looks like another silent night
