Angels We Have Heard on High

 

 

Angels We Have Heard on High

Sweetly singing ore the plains

And the mountains in reply

Echoing their joyous strains

 

Glo------ria in excelsis deo

Glo------ria in excelsis deo

 

Shepherds, why this jubilee?

Why your joyous strains prolong?

What the gladsome tidings be?

Which inspire your heavenly song?

 

Come to Bethlehem and see

Him whose birth the angels sing

Come adore on bended knee

Christ the Lord the new born King

 

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 sky

looked down where he lay,

The little Lord Jesus asleep in 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 cradle

til 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 take us to heaven,

to live with Thee there.

 

Deck the halls

 

Deck the halls with boughs of holly,

Fa la la la la la la la!

'Tis the season to be jolly

Fa la la la la la la la!

Don we now our gay apparel

Fa la la la la la la la!

Troll the ancient Yuletide carol

Fa la la la la la la la!

 

See the blazing yule before us

Fa la la la la la la la!

Strike the harp and join the chorus

Fa la la la la la la la!

Follow me in merry measure

Fa la la la la la la la!

While I tell of Yuletide treasure

Fa la la la la la la la!

 

Fast away the old year passes

Fa la la la la la la la!

Hail the new, ye lads and lasses

Fa la la la la la la la!

Sing we joyous all together!

Fa la la la la la la la!

Heedless of the wind and weather

Fa la la la la la la la!

 

Do you hear what I hear?

 

Said the night wind to the little lamb,

"Do you see what I see?

Way up in the sky, little lamb,

Do you see what I see?

A star, a star, dancing in the night

With a tail as big as a kite,

With a tail as big as a kite."

 

Said the little lamb to the shepherd boy,

"Do you hear what I hear?

Ringing through the sky, shepherd boy,

Do you hear what I hear?

A song, a song high above the trees

With a voice as big as the the sea,

With a voice as big as the the sea."

 

Said the shepherd boy to the mighty king,

"Do you know what I know?

In your palace warm, mighty king,

Do you know what I know?

A Child, a Child shivers in the cold--

Let us bring him silver and gold,

Let us bring him silver and gold."

 

Said the king to the people everywhere,

"Listen to what I say!

Pray for peace, people, everywhere,

Listen to what I say!

The Child, the Child sleeping in the night

He will bring us goodness and light,

He will bring us goodness and light."

I wanna wish you a merry Christmas

I wanna wish you a merry Christmas

I wanna wish you a merry Christmas

From the bottom of my heart

 

 

God rest ye merry, gentlemen

 

God rest ye merry, gentlemen

Let nothing you dismay,

Remember Christ, our Savior

Was born on Christmas Day,

To save us all from Satan's power

When we were gone astray:

 

O tidings of comfort and joy,

comfort and joy,

O tidings of comfort and joy.

 

In Bethlehem in Israel

This blessed Babe was born

And laid within a manger

Upon this blessed morn

To which His mother Mary

Did nothing take in scorn

 

O tidings of comfort and joy,

comfort and joy,

O tidings of comfort and joy.

 

From God our Heavenly Father

A blessed Angel came,

And unto certain Shepherds

Brought tidings of the same,

How that in Bethlehem was born

The Son of God by name.

 

O tidings of comfort and joy,

comfort and joy,

O tidings of comfort and joy.

 

 

Hark! The Herald Angels Sing

 

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 the angelic host proclaim:

"Christ is born in Bethlehem"

Hark! The herald angels sing,

"Glory to the newborn 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 as man with man to dwell

Jesus our Emmanuel

Hark! The herald angels sing,

“Glory to the new born 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!"

 

Jingle Bell Rock

 

Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock

Jingle bells swing and jingle bells ring

Snowin' and blowin' up bushels of fun

Now the jingle hop has begun

 

Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock

Jingle bells chime in jingle bell time

Dancin' and prancin' in Jingle Bell Square

In the frosty air

 

What a bright time, it's the right time

To rock the night away

Jingle bell time is a swell time

To go glidin' in a one-horse sleigh

 

Giddy-up jingle horse, pick up your feet

Jingle around the clock

Mix and a-mingle in the jinglin' feet

That's the jingle bell rock

 

Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock

Jingle bell chime in jingle bell time

Dancin' and prancin' in Jingle Bell Square

In the frosty air

 

What a bright time, it's the right time

To rock the night away

Jingle bell time is a swell time

To go glidin' in a one-horse sleigh

 

Giddy-up jingle horse, pick up your feet

Jingle around the clock

Mix and a-mingle in the jinglin' feet

That's the jingle bell

That's the jingle bell

That's the jingle bell rock

 

Jingle Bells

 

Dashing through the snow,

In a one-horse open sleigh,

Over the fields we go,

Laughing all the way.

Bells on bob-tails ring,

Making spirits bright,

What fun it is to ride and

Sing a sleighing song tonight.

 

Chorus

Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way!

O what fun it is to ride

In a one-horse open sleigh.

Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way!

O what fun it is to ride

In a one-horse open sleigh.

 

Joy to the world

 

Joy to the world, the Lord has come!

Let earth receive her King;

Let every 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 Savior 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, wonders, of His love.

Mary Did You Know (Lowry - Green)

 

Mary did you know that your baby boy

Would some day walk on water

Mary did you know that your baby boy

Would save our sons and daughters

Did you know that your baby boy

Has come to make you new

This child that you've delivered

Will soon deliver you

 

Mary did you know that your baby boy

Will give sight to a blind man

Mary did you know that your baby boy

Will calm the storm with his hand

Did you know that your baby boy

Has walked where angels trod

When you've kissed your little baby

Then you've kissed the face of God

 

Mary did you know

Mary did you know

 

The blind will see, the deaf will hear,

The dead will live again

The lame will leap, the dumb will speak,

The praises of the lamb

 

Mary did you know that your baby boy

Is Lord of all creation

Mary did you know that your baby boy

Will one day rule the nations

Did you know that your baby boy

Was heaven's perfect lamb

This sleeping child you're holding

Is the great "I AM"

Round yon virgin mother and child.

Holy infant, so tender and mild,

Sleep in heavenly peace,

Glories stream from heaven afar,

Heavenly hosts sing Alleluia!

Radiant beams from thy holy face

With the dawn of redeeming grace,

Jesus, Lord, at thy birth,

The first Noel

 

The first Noel the Angel did say

Was to three poor Shepherds

in fields as they lay.

In fields where they

lay keeping their sheep,

In a cold winters 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.

 

 

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.

 

 

We wish you a Merry Christmas

 

We wish you a Merry Christmas

We wish you a Merry Christmas

We wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Ye!ar

 

Good tidings we bring to you and your kin

Good tidings for Christmas and a Happy New Year!

 

 

What Child is this

 

Verse 1:

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.

 

Verse 2:

Why lies he in such mean estate

Where ox and lamb are feeding?

Good Christian, fear for sinners here

The silent Word is pleasing

 

Nails spear shall pierce Him thro'

The cross be borne for me for you

Hail hail the Word made flesh

The babe the Son of Mary

 

Verse 3:

So bring Him incense, gold and myrrh,

Come peasant, king to own Him;

The King of kings salvation brings,

Let loving hearts enthrone Him.

 

Raise, raise a song on high,

The virgin sings her lullaby.

Joy, joy for Christ is born,

The Babe, the Son of Mary.

 

This, this is Christ the King,

Whom shepherds guard

and Angels sing;

Haste, haste, to bring Him laud,

The Babe, the Son of Mary.
