LI’L TOWN
By Phillips Brooks (1835 – 93)Set to New Tune by Nana Odei Ofei (December 2005)

O little town of Bethlehem,
How still we see thee lie;
Above thy deep and dreamless sleep
The silent stars go by;

Refrain:

Yet in thy dark streets shineth
The everlasting light
The hopes and fears of all the years
Are met in thee tonight.

For Christ is born of Mary;
And gathered all above
While mortals sleep, the angels keep
Their watch of wondering love.

Refrain:

O morning stars together
Proclaim the holy birth
And praises sing to God, the King,
And peace to men on earth.



O holy child of Bethlehem,
Descend to us, we pray;
Cast out our sin, and enter in,
Be born in us today.

Refrain:

We hear the Christmas angels
The great glad tidings tell
O come to us, abide with us
Our Lord, Emmanuel.
