Very pretty, thank you for posting. The original was actually played on a guitar in the key of G because the organ was broken. But alas trivia is far less important than the song and it’s message. Merry Christmas!

When I was a young military dependent in Germany in 1964 I heard Silent Night in German for the first time. It was mesmerizing and I try to find a German version each year now. It reminds me of when my parents were alive and the family was together for Christmas. Those were the best years.

Thank you for posting this.
