Round young virgin, mother and child
Holy infant so, tender and mild

The lyrics of Eric Bellinger's song Silent Night carry a peaceful and serene tone. The song is a traditional Christmas carol that talks about the birth of Jesus and the joyous occasion that surrounded it.

The lyrics convey the love and innocence of the baby Jesus, with lines like "Round young virgin, mother and child" which describes the scene of Mary cradling baby Jesus in her arms. The phrase "Holy infant so tender and mild" further emphasizes the purity of the baby Jesus, and his importance as the savior of humanity.
