Carol #201   O Little Town of Bethlehem  [v 1, 3 & 4]

1. 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.

3. How silently, how silently,
the wondrous gift is giv’n!
So God imparts to human hearts
the blessings of the heav’ns.
No ear may hear his coming,
but in this world of sin,
where meek souls will receive him still
the dear Christ enters in.

4. O holy Child of Bethlehem,
descend to us, we pray,
cast out our sin, and enter in,
be born in us today!
We hear the Christmas angels
the great glad tidings tell.
O come to us, abide with us,
our Lord Emmanuel.

Carol #216   Infant Holy Infant Lowly  [all]

1 Infant holy, infant lowly,
for his bed a cattle stall;
oxen lowing, little knowing
Christ the babe is Lord of all.
Swiftly winging angels singing,
bells are ringing, tidings bringing:
Christ the babe is Lord of all!
Christ the babe is Lord of all!

2 Flocks were sleeping; shepherds keeping
vigil till the morning new
saw the glory, heard the story,
tidings of a gospel true.
Thus rejoicing, free from sorrow,
praises voicing, greet the morrow:
Christ the babe was born for you!
Christ the babe was born for you!

Carol #215  While by the Sheep We Watched at Night  [v 3&4]

3 There shall the child lie in a stall,
this child who shall redeem us all.

How great our joy!
Great our joy!
Joy, joy, joy!
Joy, joy, joy!
Praise we the Lord in heaven on high!
Praise we the Lord in heaven on high!

4 This gift of God we'll cherish well,
that ever joy our hearts shall fill.

How great our joy!
Great our joy!
Joy, joy, joy!
Joy, joy, joy!
Praise we the Lord in heaven on high!
Praise we the Lord in heaven on high!

Carol 225  Once in Royal David's City  [1, 2&4]

1 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.

2 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 mean, and lowly,
lived on earth our Savior holy.

4 And our eyes at last shall see him,
thro' his own redeeming love;
for that child so dear and gentle
is our Lord in heav'n above:
and he leads his children on
to the place where he is gone.

Scripture Reading - Luke 2:8-14

Carol #222   While Shepherds Watched Their Flocks  [all]

1 While shepherds watched their flocks by night, 
all seated on the ground, 
an angel of the Lord came down, 
and glory shone around. 

2 "Fear not," said he for mighty dread 
had seized their troubled mind 
"glad tidings of great joy I bring 
to you and all mankind. 

3 "To you, in David's town, this day 
is born of David's line 
a Savior, who is Christ the Lord; 
and this shall be the sign: 

4 "The heavenly babe you there shall find 
to human view displayed, 
all simply wrapped in swaddling clothes 
and in a manger laid." 

5 Thus spoke the angel. Suddenly 
appeared a shining throng 
of angels praising God, who thus 
addressed their joyful song:

6 "All glory be to God on high, 
and to the earth be peace; 
to those on whom his favor rests 
goodwill shall never cease." 

Carol #217  All My Heart This Night Rejoices  [v 1, 2, 3, 5, 6]

1 All my heart this night rejoices
as I hear far and near
sweetest angel voices.
"Christ is born," their choirs are singing
'til the air ev'rywhere
now with joy is ringing.

2 Forth today the Conqu'ror goeth,
who the foe, sin and woe,
death and hell, o'erthroweth.
God is man, man to deliver;
his dear Son now is one
with our blood forever.

3 Shall we still dread God's displeasure,
who, to save, freely gave
his most cherished Treasure?
To redeem us, he hath given
his own Son from the throne
of his might in heaven.

5 Hark! a voice from yonder manger,
soft and sweet, doth entreat,
"Flee from woe and danger.
Brethren, from all ills that grieve you,
you are freed; all you need
I will surely give you."

6 Come, then, banish all your sadness,
one and all, great and small;
come with songs of gladness.
Love him who with love is glowing;
hail the star, near and far
light and joy bestowing.

Carol #210  Silent Night! Holy Night!  [v1-4]

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.

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!”

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!

4 Silent night, holy night!
Wondrous star, lend thy light.
With the angels let us sing
“Alleluia” to our King,
“Christ the Savior is born,
Christ the Savior is born.”

and heav’n and nature sing,
and heav’n, and heav’n and nature sing.
