Christmas Eve

The first Noel, the angels did say
Was to certain poor shepherds in fields as they lay
In fields where they lay keeping their sheep
On a cold winter's night that was so deep

Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
Born is the King of Israel
They looked up and saw a star
Shining in the East beyond them far
And to the Earth it gave great light
And so it continued both day and night

Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
Born is the King of Israel
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
Born is the King of Israel

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
 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 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
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

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

Joy to the world the Lord is come
Let earth receive her King
Let ev'ry heart prepare Him room
And heaven and nature sing
And heaven and nature sing

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

O holy night the stars are brightly shining
 It is the night of our dear Savior’s birth
 Long lay the world in sin and error pining
 Till He appeared and the soul felt its worth
 A thrill of hope the weary world rejoices
 For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn

 Fall on your knees
 O hear the angel voices
 O night divine
 O night when Christ was born

Truly He taught us to love one another
 His law is love and His gospel is peace
 Chains He shall break
 For the slave is our brother
 And in His Name
 All oppression shall cease
 Sweet hymns of joy
 In grateful chorus raise we
 Let all within us praise His holy Name

 Christ is the Lord
 O praise His Name forever
 His power and glory
 Evermore proclaim
 His power and glory
 Evermore proclaim (2x)

Have yourself a merry little Christmas
Let your heart be light
From now on your troubles will be out of sight

Have yourself a merry little Christmas
Make the Yuletide gay
From now on your troubles will be miles away

Here we are as in olden days
Happy golden days of yore
Faithful friends who are dear to us
Gather near to us once more

Through the years we all will be together
If the fates allow
Hang a shining star upon the highest place

So have yourself a merry little Christmas
Have yourself a merry little Christmas
So have yourself a merry little Christmas
