Silent night, holy night
All is calm, all is bright
Round yon Virgin Mother and Child
Holy infant so tender and mild
Sleep in heavenly peace
Sleep in heavenly peace
Silent night, holy night
All is calm, all is bright
Round yon Virgin Mother and Child
Holy infant so tender and mild
Sleep in heavenly peace
Sleep in heavenly peace

The world's most famous Christmas song, Silent Night, comes to us from Austria. It was first performed on Christmas Eve 1818 at St. Nikola Church in the village of Oberndorf. This beautiful carol is now sung around the world in over 300 languages and dialects.
The legend says that a hungry mouse damaged the organ bellows a few days before Christmas. And that in just a few hours time, Josef Mohr (priest) and his friend Franz Gruber (organist) produced the song for just two voices and guitar.
Right after the beginning of the war in 1914, an amazing spectacle took place. On Christmas Eve soldiers placed Christmas trees on the upper edges of the trenches as a sign of peace. Fighters then laid down their weapons and sang Silent Night on both sides of the front.
Children are God's best creation
They spread
Happiness and joy
In every season
Handle them
With love and care
Happy Children's Day
For all you do, you do with love
You are so special
A gift from above
And with all my heart
I want to say
I love you, Mummy
Happy Mother's Day
Father's Day, Father's Day
Is a very special day
Here's a great hug
And lots of kisses, too
Each one says
Daddy, daddy
I love you
