Oh Come All Ye Faithful


O come all ye faithful

Joyful and triumphant

O come ye O come ye to Bethlehem

Come and behold Him

Born the King of angels


O come let us adore Him

Christ the Lord


Sing choirs of angels

Sing in exultation

Sing all ye citizens of heaven above

Glory to God

Glory in the highest


O come let us adore Him

Christ the Lord


Yes Lord we greet Thee

Born this happy morning

Jesus to Thee be the glory giv'n

Word of the Father now in flesh appearing


O come let us adore Him

Christ the Lord



O Little Town Of Bethlehem


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


For Christ is born of Mary

And gathered all above

While mortals sleep

The angels keep their watch of wondering love

O morning stars together

Proclaim the holy birth

And praises sing to God the King

And peace to men on earth


How silently how silently

The wondrous gift is given

So God imparts to human hearts

The blessings of His heaven

No ear may hear His coming

But in this world of sin

Where meek souls will receive Him still

The dear Christ enters in



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 look 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

And fit us for Heaven to live with Thee there



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

This this is Christ the King

Whom shepherds guard and angels sing

Haste haste to bring Him laud

The Babe the Son of Mary


Why lies He in such mean estate

Where ox and ass are feeding

Good Christian fear for sinners here

The silent Word is pleading

Nails spear shall pierce Him through

The cross be borne for me for you

Hail hail the Word made flesh

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

Raise raise the song on high

The Virgin sings her lullaby

Joy joy for Christ is born

The Babe the Son of Mary



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 hosts proclaim

Christ is born in Bethlehem

Hark the herald angels sing

Glory to the newborn King


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


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



Silent 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

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


Silent night holy night

Shepherds quake at the sight

Glories stream from heaven afar

Heav'nly hosts sing hallelujah

Christ the Savior is born

Christ the Savior is born



`Angels We Have Heard On High


Angels we have heard on high

Sweetly singing o'er the plains

And the mountains in reply

Echoing 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


Gloria

In excelsis Deo

Gloria

In excelsis Deo


Come to Bethlehem and see

Christ whose birth the angels sing

Come adore on bended knee

Christ the Lord the newborn King


Gloria

In excelsis Deo

Gloria

In excelsis Deo


See Him in a manger laid

Whom the choirs of angels praise

Mary Joseph lend your aid

While our hearts in love we raise



Joy To The World


Verse 1

Joy to the world the Lord is 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


We will sing sing sing

Joy to the world

We will sing sing 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


We will sing sing sing

Joy to the world

We will sing sing sing


He rules the world with truth and grace

And makes the nations prove

The light of His righteousness

And wonders of His love

And wonders of His love

And wonders of His love

And wonders wonders of His love



Jingle Bells


Jingle Bells Jingle Bells

Jingle all the way

oh what fun is it to ride in a one horse open sleigh (hey)


Dashing through the snow

On a one horse open sleigh

Through the fields we go

Laughing all the way



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 year
