  • Hark the Herald Angels Sing

    Song

    Verse 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 th’angelic hosts proclaim
    Christ is born in Bethlehem
    Hark the herald angels sing
    Glory to the newborn King

    Verse 2

    Christ by highest heav’n adored
    Christ the everlasting Lord
    Late in time behold Him come
    Offspring of the Virgin’s womb
    Veiled in flesh the Godhead see
    Hail th’incarnate Deity
    Pleased as man with men to dwell
    Jesus our Emmanuel
    Hark the herald angels sing
    Glory to the newborn King

    Verse 3

    Hail the heav’n-born Prince of Peace
    Hail the Sun of Righteousness
    Light and life to all He brings
    Ris’n 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

    And heav’n and heav’n and nature sing

    Verse 2

    Joy to the earth the Savior reigns
    Let men their songs employ
    While fields and floods
    Rocks hills and plains
    Repeat the sounding joy

    Repeat repeat the sounding joy

    Verse 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 Holy Night

    Song

    Verse 1

    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 world rejoices
    For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn

    Chorus 1

    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

    Verse 2

    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

    Chorus 2

    Christ is the Lord
    O praise His name forever
    His power and glory
    Evermore proclaim
    His power and glory
    Evermore proclaim

  • Silent Night

    Song

    Verse 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

    Verse 2

    Silent night holy night
    Shepherds quake at the sight
    Glories stream from heaven afar
    Heav’nly hosts sing alleluia
    Christ the Savior is born
    Christ the Savior is born

    Verse 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
