On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day; The Virgin Mary and Christ were there. On Christmas Day in the morning. Silent Night @ Holy Night God rest you merry gentlemen, Let nothing you dismay, Remember Christ your Saviour Was bom upon this day, To save us all from Satan's power When we were gone astray. Refrain: O tidings of comfort and joy, comfort and joy, O tidings of comfort and joy. 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 From heaven's all gracious King The world in solemn stillness lay To hear the 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 angelic hosts proclaim, V “Christ is bom in Bethlehem.” > Yet with the woes of sin and strife The world has suffered long; Beneath the angel-strain have rolled Two thousand years of wrong; O come, all ye faithful, Joyful and triumphant, O come ye, O come ye, To Bethlehem; Come and behold Him, Bom the King of Angels, O come let us adore Him, O come let us adore Him. O come let us adore Him, Christ the Lord. Sing, choir of angels, Sing in exultation, Sing all ye citizens, Of Heaven above, Glory to God, In the highest, O come let us adore Him, O come let us adore Him, O come let us adore Him. Christ the Lord. And thro’ all His wond'rous childhood He would honor and obey. Love and watch the lowly maiden In whose gentle arms He lay. Christian children all must be Mild, obedient, good as He. Refrain: , 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, Veil'd in flesh the Godhead see; Hail the incarnate Deity, Pleas'd as man with man to dwell Jesus, our Emmanuel. (sung to the tune of Greensleeves) 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. So bring Him incense, gold and myrrh, Come, peasant, King to own Him; The King of Kings salvation brings, Let loving hearts enthrone Him. ............. SONGS 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! 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!
