In Excelsis Gloria
|
|
| When
Christ was born of Mary free, |
| In
Bethlehem in that fair city, |
| Angels
sung e'er with mirth and glee, |
| In
excelsis gloria, |
| In
excelsis gloria, |
In
excelsis gloria,
|
| Herdmen
beheld these angels bright- |
| To
them appeared with great light, |
And
said, "God's son is born this night." Refrain
|
| This
King is come to save His kind, |
| In
the Scripture as we find; |
Therefore
this song we have in mind: Refrain
|
| Then,
dear Lord, for Thy great grace, |
| Grant
us the bliss to see Thy face, |
Where
we may sing to Thy solace: Refrain
|

Infant Holy, Infant Lowly
|
| Infant
holy, infant lowly, |
| For
His bed a cattle stall; |
| Oxen
lowing, little knowing |
| Christ,
the babe, is Lord of all. |
| Swift
are winging, angels singing, |
| Noels
ringing, tidings bringing: |
Christ
the babe is Lord of all.
|
| Flocks
were sleeping, shepherds keeping |
| Vigil
till the morning new |
| Saw
the glory, heard the story, |
| Tidings
of a gospel true. |
| Thus
rejoicing, free from sorrow, |
| Praises
voicing greet the morrow: |
Christ
the babe was born for you.

Jingle Bell
|
| Dashing
through the snow |
| In
a one-horse open sleigh; |
| O'er
the fields we go, |
| Laughing
all the way. |
| Bells
on bobtail ring, |
| Making
spirits bright; |
| What
fun it is to ride and sing |
| A sleighing
song tonight. |
| Oh!
jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way; |
| Oh,
what fun it is to ride in a one-horse open sleigh. |
| Hey!
jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way; |
Oh,
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
ev'ry 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 world! the Savior reigns: |
| Let
men their songs employ, |
| While
fields and floods, rocks, hills an plains |
| Repeat
the sounding joy, |
| Repeat
the sounding joy, |
Repeat,

|
| 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, wonder of His love.
