Hark! the Herald Angels Sing
1. Hark! the herald angels sing, “Glory to the newborn King,
Peace on earth, and mercy mild, God and sinners reconciled!”
Joyful, all ye nations rise, join the triumph of the skies;
With angelic host proclaim, “Christ is born in Bethlehem!”
Hark! the herald angels sing, “Glory to the newborn King!”
2. Christ, by highest heaven adored; Christ, the everlasting Lord;
Late in time behold him come, offspring of a virgin’s womb.
Veiled in flesh the Godhead see; hail th’ incarnate Deity,
Pleased as Man with man to dwell, Jesus, our Emmanuel.
Hark! the herald angels sing, “Glory to the newborn King!”
3. Hail the heaven-born Prince of Peace! Hail the Son of Righteousness!
Light and life to all He brings, Risen with healing in His wings
Mild He lays His glory by, Born that man no more may die
Born to raise the sons of earth, Born to give them second birth
Hark! The herald angels sing "Glory to the newborn King!"
Joy to the World
1. Joy to the world! the Lord is come; Let earth receive her King;
Let every heart prepare him room,
And heaven and nature sing, And heaven and nature sing,
And heaven, and heaven, and nature sing.
2. Joy to the world! the Saviour reigns; Let men their songs employ;
While fields and floods, rocks, hills, and plains
Repeat the sounding joy, Repeat the sounding joy,
Repeat, repeat the sounding joy.
3. He rules the world with truth and grace, and makes the nations prove
The glories of His righteousness,
And wonders of His love, And wonders of His love,
And wonders, wonders, of His love.
O Little Town of Bethlehem
1. O little town of Bethlehem, how still we see thee lie
Above thy deep and dreamless sleep, the silent stars go by
Yet in thy dark streets shineth, The everlasting Light
The hopes and fears of all the years, Are met in thee tonight
2. For Christ is born of Mary, And gathered all above
While mortals sleep, the angels keep, Their watch of wondering love
O morning stars together, Proclaim the holy birth
And praises sing to God the King, And Peace to men on earth
3. O Holy Child of Bethlehem, descend to us, we pray
Cast out our sin and enter in, be born to us today
We hear the Christmas angels, The great glad tidings tell
O come to us, abide with us, Our Lord Emmanuel
The First Noel
1. The first Noel, the angel did say
Was to certain poor shepherds in fields as they lay
In fields where they lay keeping their sheep
On a cold winter's night that was so deep
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
Born is the King of Israel
2. For God so loved the world He gave Jesus His Son
Begotten from heaven the Holy One
To save His people from all of our sins
To dwell in our hearts to be born again.
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
Born is the King of Israel
3. Then let us all with one accord
Sing praises to our heavenly Lord
And to the earth, He gave us His light
And so, it continues both day and night
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
Born is the King of Israel
Angels We Have Heard on High
1. Angels we have heard on high, Sweetly singing o’er the plains
And the mountains in reply, Echoing their joyous strains
Gloria, in excelsis Deo! Gloria, in excelsis Deo!
2. Shepherds, why this jubilee? Why your joyous strains prolong?
What the gladsome tidings be, Which inspire your heavenly song?
Gloria, in excelsis Deo! Gloria, in excelsis Deo!
2. Come to Bethlehem and see, Him Whose birth the angels sing;
Come, adore on bended knee, Christ the Lord, the newborn King.
Gloria, in excelsis Deo! Gloria, in excelsis Deo!
Silent Night
1. Silent night! Holy night! All is calm, all is bright
Round yon Virgin Mother and Child, Holy infant so tender and mild,
Sleep in Heavenly peace! sleep in Heavenly peace!
2. Silent night! Holy night! Shepherds quake at the sight;
Glories stream from Heaven afar, Heavenly hosts sing Alleluia,
Christ, the Saviour, is born! Christ, the Saviour, is born!
3. Silent night! Holy night! Son of God, Love’s pure light
Radiant, beams from Thy Holy face, with the dawn of redeeming grace,
Jesus, Lord at Thy birth, Jesus, Lord at Thy birth.
