Away in a Manger
Away in a manger no crib for a bed
The little Lord Jesus laid 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
We Three Kings
We three kings of Orient are
Bearing gifts we traverse afar.
Field and fountain, moor and mountain,
Following yonder star.
​
O star of wonder, star of night,
Star of royal beauty bright,
Westward leading, still proceeding,
Guide us to thy perfect light
​
Born a king on Bethlehem's plain,
Gold I bring to crown Him again,
King forever, ceasing never
Over us all to reign.
​
O star of wonder, star of night,
Star of royal beauty bright,
Westward leading, still proceeding,
Guide us to thy perfect light
​
Frankincense to offer have I.
Incense owns a Deity nigh.
Prayer and praising all men raising,
Worship Him, God on high
​
O star of wonder, star of night,
Star of royal beauty bright,
Westward leading, still proceeding,
Guide us to thy perfect light
​
Myrrh is mine: Its bitter perfume
Breathes of life of gathering gloom.
Sorrow, sighing, bleeding, dying,
Sealed in a stone-cold tomb.
​
O star of wonder, star of night,
Star of royal beauty bright,
Westward leading, still proceeding,
Guide us to thy perfect light
​
Glorious now behold Him arise,
King and God and Sacrifice.
Alleluia, alleluia!
Sounds through the earth and skies
​
O star of wonder, star of night,
Star of royal beauty bright,
Westward leading, still proceeding,
Guide us to thy perfect light
While Shepherds Watched
While shepherds watched their flocks by night,
All seated on the ground,
The angel of the Lord came down,
And glory shone around.
​
“Fear not,” said he (for mighty dread
Had seized their troubled minds);
“Glad tidings of great joy I bring
To you and all mankind.
​
“To you, in David’s town, this day,
Is born of David’s line
A Saviour, who is Christ the Lord;
And this shall be the sign:
​
The heavenly Babe you there shall find
To human view displayed,
All meanly wrapped in swathing bands
And in a manger laid.”
​
Thus spake the Seraph, and forthwith
Appeared a shining throng
Of angels praising God, who thus
Addressed their joyful song:
​
“All glory be to God on high,
and to the earth be peace;
goodwill henceforth from heaven to men
begin and never cease!'
Once in Royal
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
​
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
​
Not in that poor lowly stable
with the oxen standing by
We shall see him, but in heaven
set at God's right hand on high
There his children gather round
bright like stars with glory crowned
Joy to the World
Joy to the world the Lord is come
Let earth receive her King
Let ev'ry heart prepare Him room
And heaven and nature sing
And heaven and nature sing
And heaven and heaven and nature sing
​
Joy to the world the Saviour reigns
Let all their songs employ
While fields and floods rocks hills and plains
Repeat the sounding joy
Repeat the sounding joy
Repeat repeat the sounding joy
​
The joy, joy
The joy of the Lord is my strength
The joy, joy
The joy of the Lord is my strength
Oh, he is my hope
Oh, he is my 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 wonders of His love
Ding Dong
Ding dong, merrily on high!
In heav’n the bells are ringing;
ding dong, verily the sky
is riv’n with angels singing.
Gloria, hosannah in excelsis!
Gloria, hosannah in excelsis!
​
E'en so here below,
let steeple bells be swungen,
And io, io, io,
by priest and people sungen.
Gloria, hosannah in excelsis!
Gloria, hosannah in excelsis!
​
Ding dong merrily on high
The curse of sin is broken;
Ding dong open up your eyes
The celebration's starting
Gloria, hosannah in excelsis!
Gloria, hosannah in excelsis!
O Little Town
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
​
How silently how silently
The wondrous gift is giv'n
So God imparts to human hearts
The blessings of His heav'n
No ear may hear His coming
But in this world of sin
Where meek souls will receive Him still
The dear Christ enters in
​
O holy child of Bethlehem
Descend on us we pray
Cast out our sin and enter in
Be born in us today
We hear the Christmas angels
Their great glad tidings tell
Oh come to us abide with us
Our Lord Emmanuel
Go tell it on the mountain
Go tell it on the mountain
Over the hills and everywhere
Go tell it on the mountain
that Jesus Christ is born
​
While shepherds kept their watching
O'er silent flocks by night
Behold throughout the heavens
there shone a Holy Light
​
Go tell it on the mountain
Over the hills and everywhere
Go tell it on the mountain
that Jesus Christ is born
​
The shepherds feared and trembled
when lo, above the earth
Rang out the angel chorus
that hailed our Saviour's birth
Go tell it on the mountain
Over the hills and everywhere
Go tell it on the mountain
that Jesus Christ is born
​
Down in a lowly manger
the humble Christ was born
And brought us God's salvation
that blessed Christmas morn
​
Go tell it on the mountain
Over the hills and everywhere
Go tell it on the mountain
that Jesus Christ is born
​
I was a lonely seeker
I saw both night and day
And I asked the Lord to help me
and he showed me the way
The First Noel
The first Nowell 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
​​
They looked up and saw a star
Shining in the east beyond them far
And to the earth it gave great light
And so it continued both day and night
​​
Noel noel noel noel
Born is the King of Israel
​​
Then let us all with one accord
Sing praises to our heavenly Lord
That hath made heaven and earth of nought
And with His blood mankind hath bought
​​
Noel noel noel noel
Born is the King of Israel
Silent Night

All is calm all is bright
'Round yon virgin Mother and Child
Holy infant so tender and mild
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

Joyful all ye nations rise
Join the triumph of the skies
With the angelic host proclaim

Glory to the newborn King
​
Christ by highest heav'n 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 as man with man to dwell
Jesus our Emmanuel
Hark the herald angels sing
Glory to the newborn King
​
Hail the heav'n-born Prince of Peace
Hail the Son 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
