The one I learned is:

Neath the silent star a town is sleeping
Flocks are safe within their fold
Secure from winter, danger, cold
Silent, Silent Night
Holy, Holy, Night
Sleep in peace
Sleep in heavenly peace
In peace

I found this: http://www.cpdl.org/wiki/images/9/9b/Si ... escant.pdf

My mother sang this song once with the choir when I was a child. I have never heard it since, but I have remembered it for every year since then. I cannot hear or sing Silent Night without hearing this descant in my head.

Descant lyrics for Silent Night:

Neath the silent stars,
The town is sleeping.
Flocks are safe within the fold,
Secure from danger, want or cold.
Silent, silent night,
Holy, Holy night,
Sleep in peace,
Sleep in heavenly peace.
In peace.

O'er the moonlit plains,
Were angels winging.
See their robes of glistening gold,
Reflecting a celestial light.
Silent, silent night.
Holy, holy night
Sleep in peace.
Sleep in heavenly peace.
In peace.

Descant lyrics for Silent Night:

Neath the silent stars,
The town is sleeping.
Shepherds on the hills their watch are keeping
Flocks are safe within the fold,
Secure from danger, want or cold.
Silent, silent night,
Holy, Holy night,
Sleep in peace,
Sleep in heavenly peace.
In peace.

O'er the moonlit plains,
Were angels winging.
See their robes of glistening gold,
Reflecting a celestial light.
Silent, silent night.
Holy, holy night
Sleep in peace.
Sleep in heavenly peace.
In peace.

Now the dawn grows near the town is waking.
Magi on the hills their goal approaching.
Their gifts are safe within their arms
Their hearts have found the loving light
Glorious, glorious night
Heavenly host sing alleluia
Christ the saviour
Christ the saviour
Christ is born

I was trying to remember this song too, 8th grade Mercy Academy in Louisville, KY.

Beneath the silent stars our town is sleeping
Shepherds on the hill their flocks are keeping
Their flocks are safe within the hold......
Secure from cold, danger and harm ......
Silent....., silent night
Holy....... holy night
Sleep in heaven
Sleep... in heavenly peace.....
Heavenly peace
