Added by bernard-dewagtere, 21 Nov 2008 "Silent Night" is a popular Christmas carol. The
original lyrics of the song "Stille Nacht" were written
in Oberndorf bei Salzburg, Austria, by the priest
Father Joseph Mohr and the melody was composed by the
Austrian headmaster Franz Xaver Gruber. In 1859, John
Freeman Young (second Bishop, Episcopal Diocese of
Florida) published the English translation that is most
frequently sung today. (Wikipedia) |
