O HOLY NIGHTCarols of Christmas

O COME, O COME EMMANUEL

WE NEED A LITTLE CHRISTMAS

LITTLE DRUMMER BOY

We are agents of grace.

We are spies of forgiveness.

We are assassins of hope……using bullets of love.

O Holy Night©1847

O Holy Night

[Verse 1] O holy night! The stars are brightly shining It is the night of our dear Savior's birth Long lay the world in sin and error pining 'Til He appears and the Spirit felt its worth A thrill of hope the weary world 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!

O Holy Night

[Verse 2] 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 come the Wise Men from Orient land The King of kings lay thus in lowly manger In all our trials born to be our friend He knows our need, to our weakness is no stranger Behold your King; before Him lowly bend Behold your King; before Him lowly bend

O Holy Night

[Verse 3] 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 brother And 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! His power and glory evermore proclaim His power and glory evermore proclaim

Your mission, should you choose to accept it…

Be an agent of grace Be a spy of forgiveness Be an assassin of hope
