O come, all ye faithful, joyful and triumphant O come ye, oh come ye to Bethlehem Come and behold Him, born the king of angels Oh come let us adore Him Oh come let us adore Him Oh come let us adore Him Christ the Lord Sing, choirs of angels, sing in exultation; O sing, all ye citizens of heav’n above! Glory to God, all glory in the highest; Oh come let us adore Him Oh come let us adore Him Oh come let us adore Him Christ the Lord Yea, Lord, we greet Thee, born this happy morning; Jesus, to Thee be all glory giv’n; Word of the Father, now in flesh appearing. Oh come let us adore Him Oh come let us adore Him Oh come let us adore Him Christ the Lord

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! This, this is Christ the king, whom shepherds guard and angels sing; Haste, haste to bring Him laud, the babe, the son of Mary! the babe, the son of Mary!

In the bleak mid-winter, frosty wind made moan, Earth stood hard as iron, water like a stone; Snow had fallen, snow on snow, snow on snow on snow, In the bleak midwinter, long ago. Our God, heaven cannot hold him, nor earth sustain; Heaven and earth shall flee away when he comes to reign. In the bleak midwinter a stable place sufficed The Lord God Almighty, Jesus Christ. Angels and archangels may have gathered there, Cherubim and seraphim thronged in the air; But his mother only, in her maiden bliss, Worshiped the beloved with a kiss What can I give him, poor as I am? If I were a shepherd, I would bring a lamb; If I were a Wise Man, I would do my part; Yet what I can I give him: give him my heart.

Of the Father’s love begotten, Ere the worlds began to be, He is the Alpha and Omega, He the source, the ending He, Of all things that are, that have been, And that future years shall see, Evermore and evermore! O that birth forever blessed, When the virgin, full of grace, By the Holy Ghost conceiving, Bore the Savior of our race; And the Babe, the world’s Redeemer, First revealed His sacred face, Evermore and evermore! Evermore and evermore! Let the heights of heaven adore Him; Angel hosts, His praises sing; Powers, dominions, bow before Him, And extol our God and King; Let no tongue on earth be silent, Every voice in concert ring, Evermore and evermore! Christ, to Thee with God the Father, And, O Holy Ghost, to Thee, Hymn and chant and high thanksgiving, And unwearied praises be; Honor, glory and dominion, And eternal victory, Evermore and evermore! Evermore and evermore!

I heard the bells on Christmas day, Their old familiar carols played And wild and sweet, The words repeat Of peace on Earth, good will to men And thought how as the day had come The belfries of all Christendom Had rolled along the unbroken song Of peace on Earth, good will to men Then in despair I bowed my head, “There is no peace on earth,” I said “For hate is strong and mocks the song Of peace on Earth, good will to men.” Then pealed the bells, more loud and deep: “Our God’s not dead, nor does He sleep; The wrong shall fail, the right prevail With peace on Earth, good will to men." Peace on Earth, good will to men Peace on Earth, good will to men
