Holy ht
Sweetly singing o'er the plains
Angels we have heard on high,
And the mountains in reply
Echoing their joyous strains.
Gloria in excelsis Deo,
Gloria in excelsis Deo!
Come to Bethlehem and see
Him whose birth and angels sing;
Come adore on bended knee
Christ, the Lord, our new-born King.
Gloria in excelsis Deo,
Gloria in excelsis Deo!

-(ark, the
Once in Royal-
3-feral-cf. Angers Sing
David's City
Peace on earth, and mercy mild,
Hark, the herald angels sing,
"Glory to the newborn King,
God and sinners reconciled.
Once in Royal David's City Joyful, all ye nations rise,
Stood a lowly cattle shed. Join the triumph of the skies;
Where a mother laid her Baby With angelic hosts proclaim,
In a manger for His bed. "Christ is born in Bethlehem."
Mary was that mother mild,
Refrain: Jesus Christ, that little Child.
Hark! the herald angels sing,
"Glory to the newborn King." He came down to earth from heaven,
Who is God and Lord of all. Christ, by highest heaven adored, And His shelter was a stable
Christ, the everlasting Lord; And His cradle was a stall. Late in time behold Him come, With the poor, the meek, the mild, Offspring of a virgin's womb, Lived on earth our Savior Child. Veil'd in flesh the Godhead see;
Hail the incarnate Deity, And thro' all His wond'rous childhood
Pleas'd as man with man to dwell, He would honor and obey. Jesus, our Emmanuel. Love and watch the lowly maiden
Hail the heav'n-born Prince of Peace, In whose gentle arms He lay.
Hail the Sun of righteousness Christian children all must be
Light and life to all He brings, Mild, obedient, good as He.
Ris'n with healing in His wings
Mild He lays His glory by, 14
Born that man no more may die,

Born to raise the sons of earth,
Born to give them second birth.
Ye Faithful-

What Child Is This 0 come, all ye faithful,
Joyful and triumphant,
O come ye, 0 come ye, (sung to the tune of Greensleeves)
To Bethlehem;
What Child is this, who, laid to rest,
Come and behold Him, On Mary's lap is sleeping?
Born the King of Angels, Whom angels greet with anthems sweet,
O come let us adore Him, While shepherds watch are keeping?
O come let us adore Him, This, this is Christ the King,
O come let us adore Him, Whom shepherds guard and angels sing;
Christ the Lord. 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.
And men at war with men, hear not So bring Him incense, gold and myrrh,
The words of peace they bring; Come, peasant, King to own Him;
0 hush the noise ye men of strife, The King of Kings salvation brings,
And hear the angels sing. Let loving hearts enthrone Him.
Sing, choir of angels,
Sing in exultation,
Sing all ye citizens,
Of Heaven above,
Glory to God,
In the highest,
0 come let us adore Him,
)rizir 2 m come lee tt u us s doadorer, Him,
O
the Lord.
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.

Heard on High I saw three ships come sailing in,
On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day;
I saw three ships come sailing in,
On Christmas Day in the morning.
And what was in those ships all three,
On, Christmas Day, on Christmas Day;
And what was in those ships all three,
On Christmas Day in the morning.
The Virgin Mary and Christ were there,
On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day;
The Virgin Mary and Christ were there,
On Christmas Day in the morning.
Refrain:
O tidings of comfort and joy, comfort and
joy,
O tidings of comfort and joy.
Now to the Lord sing praises,
All you within this place,
And with true love and brotherhood
Each other now embrace;
This holy tide of Christmas
All other cloth efface.
God rest you merry gentlemen,
Let nothing you dismay,
Remember Christ your Saviour
Was born upon this day,
To save us all from Satan's power
When we were gone astray.
It came upon the midnight clear,
That glorious song of old,
From angels bending near the earth
to touch their harps of gold;
"Peace on the earth, goodwill to men
From heaven's all gracious King."
The world in solemn stillness lay
To hear the angels sing.
Yet with the woes of sin and strife
The world has suffered long;
Beneath the angel-strain have rolled
Two thousand years of wrong;
