O Holy Night
O holy night, the stars are brightly shining;It is the night of the dear Savior’s birth!
Long lay the world in sin and error pining,Till He appeared and the soul felt its worth.
A thrill of hope, the weary soul rejoices,For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn.Fall on your knees, O hear the angel voices!O night divine, O night when Christ was born!
O night, O holy night, O night divine!
Led by the light of faith serenely beaming,With glowing hearts by His cradle we stand.So led by light of a star sweetly gleaming,
Here came the wise men from far away land.The King of kings lay thus in lowly manger,
In all our trials born to be our Friend!
He knows our needto our weakness is no stranger.
O night divine, O night when Christ was born!O night, O holy night, O night divine!
Truly He taught us to love one another;His law is love and His Gospel is peace.
Chains shall He break for the slave is our brotherAnd in His Name all oppression shall cease.
Sweet hymns of joy in grateful chorus raise we,Let all within us praise His holy Name!
Christ is the Lord! O praise His name forever!O night divine, O night when Christ was born!
O night, O holy night, O night divine!
O night divine!
O night….O night divine!
Silent NightSilent 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.
Silent night, holy night,Shepherds quake at the sight;
Glories stream from heaven afar,Heavenly hosts sing Alleluia!
Christ the Savior is born,Christ the Savior is born!
Luke 210 And the angel said to them, “Fear not, for behold, I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people. 11 For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord. 12 And this will be a sign for you: you will find a baby wrapped in swaddling clothes and lying in a manger.”
Silent night, holy night,Son of God, love’s pure light;
Radiant beams from Thy holy faceWith the dawn of redeeming grace,
Jesus, Lord, at Thy birth,Jesus, Lord, at Thy birth.
God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen
God rest ye merry, gentlemen, let nothing you dismay,
Remember Christ our Savior was born on Christmas Day;
To save us all from Satan’s power when we were gone astray.
O tidings of comfort and joy, comfort and joy;O tidings of comfort and joy.
From God our heavenly Father a blessèd angel came;
And unto certain shepherds brought tidings of the same;
How that in Bethlehem was born the Son of God by name.
O tidings of comfort and joy, comfort and joy;O tidings of comfort and joy.
Oh…..star of wonder, star of night, Star with royal beauty bright,
Westward leading, still proceeding, Guide us to that perfect light.
Born a king on Bethlehem's plain; Gold they bring to crown Him again;
King forever, ceasing never, Over us all He'll reign.
Oh…..star of wonder, star of night, Star with royal beauty bright,
Westward leading, still proceeding, Guide us to that perfect light.
Glorious now behold Him arise, King and God and sacrifice,
Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Worship Him, God Most High.
Oh…..star of wonder, star of night, Star with royal beauty bright,
Westward leading, still proceeding, Guide us to that perfect light.
It Came Upon a Midnight ClearIt came upon the midnight clear,
That glorious song of old,From angels bending near the earth,
To touch their harps of gold;
“Peace on the earth, good will to men,From Heaven’s all gracious King.”The world in solemn stillness lay,
To hear the angels sing.
And ye, beneath life’s crushing load,Whose forms are bending low,Who toil along the climbing way
With painful steps and slow,
Look now! for glad and golden hoursCome swiftly on the wing.
O rest beside the weary road,And hear the angels sing!
For lo! the days are hastening on,By prophet long foretold,
When with the ever circling yearsShall come the time foretold;
When the new heaven and earth shall hold
The Prince of Peace their kingAnd the whole world give back the song
Which now the angels sing.
When the new heaven and earth shall hold
The Prince of Peace their kingAnd the whole world give back the song
Which now the angels sing.
