The story behind the song

"O Holy Night" is a sacred song centered on the celebration of the birth of Jesus Christ. Its lyrics originated from Placide Cappeau's 1847 French poem, written after a priest requested a new text for Christmas Midnight Mass, and then set to music by Adolphe Adam. The poem draws on themes from the Nativity and also reflects Cappeau's social and abolitionist views. The widely known English version, written by John Sullivan Dwight, introduced notable changes to the original French meaning, such as replacing "Await your deliverance" with "O hear the angel voices." At its heart, it's a song that captures the profound wonder and spiritual significance of Christmas Eve.
