Song Lyrics

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 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.

 

O Come O Come Emmanuel

O come, O come Emmanuel

And ransom captive Israel,

That mourns in lonely exile here

Until the Son of God appear.

 

Rejoice!  Rejoice!  Emmanuel!

Shall come to thee, O Israel!

 

O come Thou Dayspring, come and cheer

Our spirits by Thine advent here;

Disperse the gloomy clouds of night,

And death’s dark shadow put to flight.

 

O come, desire of nations, bind

All peoples in one heart and mind.

Bid envy, strife and sorrow cease,

Fill all the world with heaven’s peace.

 

Come Thou Long Expected Jesus

Come Thou long expected Jesus

Born to set Thy people free;

From our fears and sins release us

Let us find our rest in Thee.

Israel’s strength and consolation,

Hope of all the earth Thou art;

Dear Desire of every nation,

Joy of every longing heart.

 

Born Thy people to deliver,

Born a Child, and yet a King,

Born to reign in us forever,

Now Thy gracious kingdom bring.

By Thine own eternal Spirit

Rule in all our hearts alone;

By Thine all sufficient merit,

Raise us to Thy glorious throne.

 

Jesus,  I do now receive Him

More than all in Him I find

He hath granted me forgiveness

I am His and He is mine.

Hallelujah what a savior

Hallelujah what a friend

Saving, helping keeping, loving

He is with me to the end

 

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 th’ 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 the Virgin’s womb:

Veiled in flesh the Godhead see;

Hail th’incarnate Deity,

Pleased as man with men to dwell,

Jesus, our Emmanuel.

 

 

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.”

 

Angels We Have Heard on High

Angels we have heard on high,

Sweetly singing o’er the plains,

And the mountains in reply

Echo back their joyous strains.

 

Gloria in excelsis Deo,

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 whose birth the angels sing;

Come adore on bended knee

Christ the Lord the newborn King.

 

Come and Worship

Angels from the realms of glory

Wing your flight o’er the earth.

Ye who sang creation’s story

Now proclaim Messiah’s birth.

 

Come and worship;

Come and worship;

Come and worship,

worship Christ the newborn King.

 

Shepherds in the fields abiding

Watching o’er your flocks by night.

God with man is now residing.

Yonder shines the infant light.

 

Saints before the altar bending,

Watching long in hope and fear.

Suddenly the Lord descending

In His temple shall appear.

 

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

 

Why lies He in such mean estate

Where ox and lamb are feeding

Good Christian, fear; for sinners here

The silent Word is pleading

 

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.

 

From the Squalor of a Borrowed Stable (Immanuel)

From the squalor of a borrowed stable,
By the spirit and a virgin’s faith;
To the anguish and the shame of scandal
Came the Saviour of the human race!
But the skies were filled, with the praise of heav’n,
Shepherds listen as the angels tell
Of the Gift of God, come down to man
At the dawning of Immanuel

King of heaven now the Friend of sinners,
Humble servant in the Father’s hands,
Filled with power and the Holy Spirit,
Filled with mercy for the broken man
Yes he walked my road, and He felt my pain,
Joys and sorrows that I know so well;
Yet His righteous steps, give me hope again –
I will follow my Immanuel!

Through the kisses of a friend’s betrayal,
He was lifted on a cruel cross;
He was punished for a world’s transgressions,
He was suffering to save the lost
He fights for breath, He fights for me
Loosing sinners from the claims of hell;
And with a shout, our souls are free –
Death defeated by Immanuel!

Now He’s standing in the place of honour,
Crowned with glory on the highest throne,
Interceding for His own beloved
Till His Father calls us to bring them home!
Then the skies will part, as the trumpet sounds
Hope of heaven or the fear of hell;
But the Bride will run, to her Lover’s arms,
Giving glory to Immanuel!

 

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 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 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 fit us for heaven to live with Thee there

 

(Repeat Verse 1 With Everyone)

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 on the hay

 

O Holy Night

O holy night!  The stars are brightly shining,

It is the night of our 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;

 

Fall on your knees, oh hear the angel voices!

O night divine, O night when Christ was born!

O night, O holy night, O night divine!

 

Truly He taught us to love on 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

 

Christ is the Lord, Oh, praise His name forever

His power and glory evermore proclaim

His power and glory evermore proclaim

 

Silent Night! Holy 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 Savior is born!

Christ the Savior 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.
