Psalm 13 04:01
Will you forget me forever? How long will you hide your face from me? How long will I be left alone to comfort my own soul With only sorrow in my heart all the day? How long? How long, O Lord? Consider and answer me, O God The people you love are crying out How long? Hear my cry to you, O Lord Light up my eyes, lest I sleep the sleep of death And my enemies rejoice prevailing over me I am shaken as I lift my eyes to you How long? How long, O Lord? Consider and answer me, O God The people you love are crying out How long? But I have trusted in your steadfast love My heart shall rejoice in your salvation And I will sing unto the Lord because He has dealt bountifully with me

Once in royal David’s city stood a lowly cattle shed Where a mother laid her baby in a manger for his bed Mary was that mother mild, Jesus Christ, her little child. He came down to earth from heaven who is God and Lord of all And His shelter was a stable, and His cradle was a stall With the poor, oppressed, and lowly, lived on earth our Savior holy. And our eyes at last shall see him, through his own redeeming love For that child so dear and gentle is our Lord in heaven above and he leads his children on to the place where he is gone. Not in that poor lowly stable, with the oxen standing by, We shall see him, but in heaven, set at God’s right hand on high When like stars his children crowned all in white shall wait around.

Let all mortal flesh keep silence And with fear and trembling stand Ponder nothing earthly minded For with blessing in His hand Christ our God to earth descendeth Our full homage to demand King of kings, yet born of Mary As of old on earth He stood Lord of lords, in human vesture In the body and the blood He will give to all the faithful His own self for heavenly food At His feet the six-winged seraph Cherubim, with sleepless eye Veil their faces to the Presence As with ceaseless voice they cry Alleluia, alleluia! Alleluia, Lord most high!

He Is Given 04:29
Here is the fire and the wood, but where is the sacrifice? Here in the place of our sin, He will Himself provide. He is given, He is given Here is the King of the Jews, but what is this mournful sight Here see the shame of our sin flow from His pierced his side He is stricken, He is stricken Here is the stone from the tomb, but where does his body lie? Here he has conquered our sin, and has gone up on high He is risen, He is risen Alleluia, Alleluia

Angels, from the realms of glory Wing your flight o’er all the earth Ye who sang creation’s story, Now proclaim Messiah’s birth Come and worship, come and worship Worship Christ, the newborn King Shepherds in the fields abiding Watching o’er your flocks by night God with man is now residing Yonder shines the infant light Come and worship, come and worship Worship Christ, the newborn King Sages, leave your contemplations Brighter visions beam afar Seek the great Desire of nations Ye have seen His natal star Come and worship, come and worship Worship Christ, the newborn King

My soul glorifies the Lord, My spirit rejoices in my God, my Savior Remembering His humble servant Now all will call me blessed For He has done great things for me (Holy is His name) My soul glorifies the Lord, My spirit rejoices in my God, my Savior From generation to generation (His mercy) Reaches to those who fear Him (His mercy) He has performed great deeds with His arm (Holy is His name) Scattered the ones proud in their thoughts He brought down the rulers from their thrones But He has lifted up the humble (Holy is His name) Filling the hungry with good things Sending the rich away empty Helping His servant Israel And to the sons of Abraham (Mercy) And to the sons of Abraham (His Mercy) And to the sons of Abraham (Have Mercy) And to the children of Abraham (Holy is His name) My soul glorifies the Lord, My spirit rejoices in my God, my Savior

Come behold the wondrous myst’ry in the dawning of the King He the theme of heaven’s praises, robed in frail humanity In our longing in our darkness now the light of life has come Look to Christ who condescended, took on flesh to ransom us Come behold the wondrous myst’ry, He the perfect Son of Man In His living in His suff’ring, never trace nor stain of sin See the true and better Adam come to save the hell-bound man Christ the great and sure fulfillment of the law in Him we stand Come behold the wondrous myst’ry, Christ the Lord upon the tree In the stead of ruined sinners hangs the Lamb in victory See the price of our redemption, see the Father’s plan unfold Bringing many sons to glory, grace unmeasured, love untold Come behold the wondrous myst’ry slain by death the God of life But no grave could e’er restrain Him, praise the Lord He is alive! What a foretaste of deliv’rance, how unwavering our hope Christ in power resurrected as will we be when He comes Come behold the wondrous myst’ry slain by death the God of life But no grave could e’er restrain Him, praise the Lord He is alive!

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 the 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

Thou who wast rich beyond all splendor All for love’s sake becamest poor Thrones for a manger didst surrender Sapphire-paved courts for stable floor Thou who wast rich beyond all splendor All for love’s sake becamest poor Thou who art God beyond all praising All for love’s sake becamest man Stooping so low but sinners raising Heavenwards by Thine eternal plan Thou who art God beyond all praising All for love’s sake becamest man Thou who art love beyond all telling Savior and King we worship Thee Emmanuel within us dwelling, Make us what Thou wouldst have us be Thou who art love beyond all telling Savior and King we worship Thee

There is no rose of such virtue As is the rose that bare Jesu Alleluia For in this rose contained was Heaven and earth in little space Res miranda By that rose we may well see That He one God in persons three Pares forma The angels sungen the shepherds to Gloria in excelsis deo Gaudeamus Leave we all this worldly mirth And follow we this joyful birth Transeamus

Of the Father’s love begotten e’re the worlds began to be He is Alpha and Omega, he the Source, the Ending he Of the 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! This is he whom heav’n-taught singers sang of old with one accord Whom the Scriptures of the prophets promised in their faithful word Now he shines the long-expected; let creation praise its Lord 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!

Joy to the world! The Lord is come, Let earth receive her King! Let every heart prepare him room And heaven and nature sing! And heaven and nature sing! And heaven, 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! And wonders, wonders of His love! Every bell on earth will ring on Christmas Day, on Christmas Day Every bell on earth will ring on Christmas Day in the morning Every soul on earth shall sing on Christmas Day, on Christmas Day Every soul on earth shall sing on Christmas Day in the morning! Joy to the world! The Savior reigns, Let men their songs employ! While fields and floods, hills and plains Repeat the sounding joy! Repeat the sounding joy! Repeat, repeat the sounding joy! O come let us adore him, O come let us adore him O come let us adore him, Christ the Lord!
