My school students would like to sing Silent Night in Russian as we are studying that country this term. On the internet, all I can find is Silent night in Russian Language, but with no guide with how to pronounce it with the International Phonetic Alphabet or even with English letters (ie. Teehaya, Noch). Any help would be greatly appreciated!

It will automatically insert stress marks in any Russian text. Knowing where to put the stress in the word is very important as it can change the meaning of the word. For instance, замо’к means lock, while за’мок means castle.
