O COME ALL YE FAITHFUL
O come all ye faithful joyful and triumphant O come ye… O come ye to Bethlehem Come and behold Him born the King of angels

O come let us adore Him O come let us adore Him
O come let us adore Him… Christ the Lord

Sing choirs of angels sing in exaltation O sing all ye citizens of heaven above Glory to God… Glory in the highest

Yea Lord we greet Thee born this happy morning Jesus to Thee be all glory given Word of the Father now in flesh appearing

ANGELS WE HAVE HEARD ON HIGH
Angels we have heard on high Sweetly singing oe’r the plains And the mountains in reply echoing their joyous strains

Gloria, in excelsis Deo

Shepherds why this jubilee Why your joyous strains prolong What the gladsome tidings be which inspire your heav’nly song?

Come to Bethlehem and see Him who’s birth the angels sing Come adore on bended knee Christ the Lord the newborn King!

ONCE IN ROYAL DAVID’S CITY
Once in royal David’s city stood a lowly cattle shed
Where a mother laid her baby in a manger for His bed
Mary was that mother mild, Jesus Christ her little child

He came down to earth from heaven who is God and Lord of all
And His shelter was a stable and His cradle was a stall
With the poor and meek and lowly, lived on earth our Saviour Holy

For He is our childhood’s pattern, day by day like us He grew
He was little weak and helpless tears and smiles like us He knew
And He feeleth for our sadness, and He shareth in our gladness

And our eyes at last shall see Him through His own Redeeming Love
For that Child so dear and gentle is our Lord in heaven above
And He leads His children on,
to the place where He is gone

HIS NAME, HIS NAME
His Name… His Name… Shall be called Wonderful
His Name… His Name… Shall be called Counselor

The Mighty God… the Everlasting Father
The Prince of Peace through all eternity
The Mighty God… the Everlasting Father
The Prince of Peace through all eternity

AWAY IN A MANGER
Away in a manger, no crib for a bed The little Lord Jesus lay down His sweet head The stars in the bright sky looked down where He lay
The little Lord Jesus asleep on the hay

The cattle are lowing the Baby awakes But little Lord Jesus no crying He makes I love Thee Lord Jesus, look down from the sky
And stay by my side until morning is nigh

Be near me Lord Jesus, I ask Thee to stay
Close by me forever, and love me I pray
Bless all the dear children in Thy tender care
And fit us for Heaven to live with Thee there

LITTLE DRUMMER BOY
Come they told me,
Pa rum pum pum pum A new born King to see,
Pa rum pum pum pum
Our finest gifts we bring,
Pa rum pum pum pum
To lay before the King,
Pa rum pum pum pum
Rum pum pum pum,
Rum pum pum pum
So to honor Him,
Pa rum pum pum pum When we come

Little Baby,
Pa rum pum pum pum I am a poor boy too,
Pa rum pum pum pum I have no gift to bring,
Pa rum pum pum pum
That’s fit to give our King Pa rum pum pum pum,
Rum pum pum pum,
Rum pum pum pum
Shall I play for you!
Pa rum pum pum pum
On my drum

Mary nodded,
Pa rum pum pum pum The ox and lamb kept time,
Pa rum pum pum pum I played my drum for Him,
Pa rum pum pum I played my best for Him, Pa rum pum pum pum
Rum pum pum pum,
Rum pum pum pum

Then He smiled at me,
Pa rum pum pum pum Me and my drum

MARY’S BOY CHILD
Long time ago in Bethlehem, so the Holy Bible said
Mary’s boy child Jesus Christ was born on Christmas Day
Hark, now hear the angels sing, A King was born today
And man will live for evermore because of Christmas Day
Mary’s boy child Jesus Christ, was born on Christmas Day

While shepherds watch their flock by night, they see a bright new shining star
They hear a choir sing a song, the music seemed to come from afar
Hark, now hear the angels sing, A King was born today
And man will live for evermore because of Christmas Day

For a moment the world was aglow All the bells rang out,
There were tears of joy and laughter People shouted, “let everyone know, there is hope for all to find peace”

Now Joseph and his wife Mary came to Bethlehem that night
They found no place to bear her child, not a single room was in sight
And then they found a little nook in a stable all forlorn
And in a manger cold and dark, Mary’s little boy was born
Hark, now hear the angels sing, A new King born today
And man will live for evermore because of Christmas Day
Mary’s boy child Jesus Christ,
was born on Christmas Day

Oh a moment still worth was a glow
All the bells rang out there were tears of joy and laughter
People shouted… “let everyone know… there is hope for all to find peace”

Oh my Lord, You sent Your son to save us
Oh my Lord, Your very self You gave us
Oh my Lord, that sin may not enslave us, and love may reign once more

Oh my Lord, when in the crib they found Him
Oh my Lord, a golden halo crowned Him
Oh my Lord, they gathered all around Him, to see Him and adore

Oh my Lord, with the child’s adoration
Oh my Lord, there came great jubilation
Oh my Lord, and full of admiration they realized what they had

Oh my Lord they had become to doubt You
Oh my Lord what did they know about You
Oh my Lord, but they were lost without You
They needed You so bad

Oh my Lord, with the child’s adoration
Oh my Lord, there came great jubilation
Oh my Lord, and full of admiration They realized what they had

Oh my Lord, You sent Your son to save us
Oh my Lord, Your very self You gave us
Oh my Lord, that sin may not enslave us and love may reign once more

HAVE YOURSELF A MERRY LITTLE CHRISTMAS
Have yourself a merry little Christmas
Let your heart be light
From now on our troubles will be out of sight
Have yourself a merry little Christmas
Make the Yuletide gay
From now on our troubles will be miles away

JINGLE BELLS
Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way! Oh what fun it is to ride In a one-horse open sleigh, hey! Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way! Oh what fun it is to ride in a one-horse open sleigh

Dashing through the snow… in a one-horse open sleigh O’er the fields we go, laughing all the way Bells on bob-tails ring, making spirits bright Oh what fun it is to ride and sing a sleighing song tonight, oh!

HARK! THE HERALD ANGELS SING
“Hark!” the herald angels sing, “Glory to the new born 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 new born King!?

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 the incarnate Deity
Pleased with us in flesh to dwell, Jesus our Immanuel
“Hark!” the herald angels sing “Glory to the new born King!”

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 new born King!”

WE THREE KINGS
Born a King on Bethlehem’s plain,
Gold I bring to crown Him again
King forever, ceasing never, over us all to reign

Glorious now behold Him arise, King and God and sacrifice Alleluia, Alleluia, sounds through the earth and skies

O COME O COME IMMANUEL
O come O come Immanuel
And ransom captive Israel That mourns in lonely exile here Until the Son of God appear
Rejoice! Rejoice! Immanuel shall come to thee O Israel

WHAT CHILD IS THIS?
What Child is this who laid to rest, on Mary’s lap is sleeping?
Whom angels greet with anthems sweet, while shepherds watch are keeping?
This, this is Christ the King, whom shepherds guard and angels sing
Haste, haste, to bring Him laud the babe, the son of Mary

So bring Him incense, gold, and myrrh
Come peasant, king to own Him
The King of kings salvation brings Let loving hearts enthrone Him

SILENT NIGHT
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

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!

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

WHEN A CHILD IS BORN
A ray of hope flickers in the sky
A shiny star lights up way up high
All across the land dawns a brand new morn
This comes to pass when a child is born

A silent wish sails the seven seas
The winds of change whisper in the trees
And the walls of doubt crumble tossed and torn
This comes to pass when a child is born

When a child is born,
A holy child is born

It’s all a dream an illusion now But will come true, sometime soon somehow
All across the land dawns a brand new morn
This comes to pass when a child is born

When a child is born,
A holy child is born

All across the land dawns a brand new morn
This comes to pass when a child is born
When a child is born A holy Child is born
When a child is born
When a child is born

Fall on your knees,
O hear the angel voices,
O night divine,
O night when Christ was born
O night divine,
O night when Christ was born

A Holy Child was born

O HOLY NIGHT
O holy night the stars are brightly shining
It is the night of our dear Saviour’s birth!
Long lay the world in sin and error pining,
Till He appeared, and the soul felt it’s 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 divine!
O night, O night divine!

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,
Let ever ever praise Thee
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel,
O night, O night divine!
O night, O night divine!
O night, O night divine!

JOY TO THE WORLD
Joy to the world the Lord is come!
Let earth receive her King
Let every heart prepare Him room
And heav’n and nature sing,
And heav’n and nature sing
And heav’n, and heav’n,
And nature sing

Joy to the earth 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!

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, and wonders of His Love!
