O Holy Night

O holy night,

O sveta noč,

the stars are brightly shining;

zvezde svetlo sijejo;

It is the night of the dear Saviour's birth.

To je noč rojstva dragega Odrešenika.

Long lay the world in sin and error pining,

Dolgo je svet ležal v grehu in zmoti, hrepeneč,

Till He appeared and the soul felt its worth.

dokler se ni pojavil in duša je začutila svojo vrednost.

A thrill of hope, the weary world rejoices,

Drhtenje upanja, utrujeni svet se veseli,

For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn!

Kajti tam se svita novo in veličastno jutro!

Fall on your knees!

Padi na kolena!

O hear the angel voices!

O, sliši angelske glasove!

O night divine,

O sveta noč,

O night when Christ was born!

O noč, ko se je rodil Kristus!

Truly He taught us to love one another;

Resnično nas je naučil ljubiti drug drugega;

His law is love and His gospel is peace.

Njegova postava je ljubezen in njegov evangelij je mir.

Chains shall He break, for the slave is our brother;

Strl bo verige, kajti suženj je naš brat;

And in His name all oppression shall cease.

in v Njegovem imenu bo vse zatiranje prenehalo.

Sweet hymns of joy in grateful chorus raise we;

Sladke hvalnice veselja v hvaležnem zboru pojemo;

Let all within us praise His holy name.

Naj vse v nas hvali Njegovo sveto ime.

Christ is the Lord!

Kristus je Gospod!

Then ever, ever praise we!

Naj ga vedno, vedno hvalimo!

His power and glory evermore proclaim!

Njegovo moč in slavo oznanjajmo na veke!
