Writing a Prayer of Hope

O Holy Night! The stars are brightly shining.

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

Long lay the world in sin and error pining.

Till He appeared and the soul felt its worth.

A thrill of hope the weary world rejoices,

For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn.

Placide Cappeau de Roquemaure, O, Holy Night
