It's all about the music, dude! Sit down, relax and listen to some tunes.

It can depend on the language

The rhythm was conceived to fit the original French lyrics, "Minuit, Chretiens". The English translation doesn't fit the original rhythm as well, although it can be made to work. I don't have a problem adapting the rhythm to fit. Usually the only time you hear the English lyrics with the original rhythm is when singers do different verses in different languages, and want to keep it consistent. Pavarotti does this, singing the first verse in English, then the first verse again, in French, using the same rhythm in both.
