O Betlehem, du lilla stad [English translation]
O Bethlehem, you little town, how quietly you lay there
Sunken inside of noise from dreamless sleep, when miracles happen
A star lights up and the darkness doesn't assume the power
O all kinds of hopes and faiths have met on this night
So silently and so stealthily, God's gift reaches us
O Heaven came down to Earth when no one expected it
We cannot hear His steps, yet He is still approaching us
O suddenly, as a stranger, He appears
Right here among us
You Child of Bethlehem, we pray, give our eyes light
O purify your heart so that we may
With you, become Children of God
Now, God's hosts of angels calmly sing
O we sing along
O come to us, remain with us, God's son: Emmanuel
