Silent Night
Experience Tranquil Nights: Unveiling the Profound Meaning in Mariah Carey's Silent Night
Lyrics
Silent night
Silence and tranquility during the night
Holy night
A night considered sacred or divine
All is calm
Everything is peaceful and undisturbed
All is bright
Everything is shining and luminous
'Round yon virgin Mother and Child
Around the virgin mother and her child
Holy infant so tender and mild
The baby Jesus portrayed as gentle and delicate
Sleep in heavenly peace
Rest in a heavenly state of tranquility
Sleep in heavenly peace
Rest in a heavenly state of tranquility (repeated)
Silent night
A repetition of the peaceful night
Holy night
Reiteration of the sacredness of the night
Son of God
Reference to Jesus as the Son of God
Oh, love's pure light
The pure and illuminating nature of love
Radiant beams from
Shining rays emanating from God's holy presence
Thy holy face
Describing the radiance from God's countenance
With the dawn of redeeming grace
The arrival of divine grace with the dawn
Jesus Lord at Thy birth
Recognizing Jesus as Lord during his birth
Oh, Jesus Lord at Thy birth
Repeating the acknowledgment of Jesus as Lord at birth
Sleep
Call for peaceful rest
Sleep (sleep)
Repetition urging sleep for heavenly peace
Sleep in heavenly, heavenly peace
Encouraging sleep for tranquility in heaven
Sleep (sleep, sleep)
Further emphasis on peaceful sleep
Sleep
Reiteration of the call for sleep
Sleep in heavenly, heavenly, heavenly peace
Encouraging profound sleep for heavenly peace
Peace
Invoking peace
Peace
Repetition emphasizing peace
Sleep (heavenly peace)
Connecting sleep with heavenly peace
Oh, sleep in heavenly peace
Final plea for sleep in heavenly peace
