Mary Did You Know
Mary, did you know that your baby boy will one day walk on water? Mary, did you know that your baby boy will save our sons and daughters? Did you know that your baby boy has come to make you new? This child that you’ve delivered will soon deliver you Mary, did you know that your baby boy will give sight to a blind man? Mary, did you know that your baby boy will calm a storm with his hands? Did you know that your baby boy has walked where angels trod? And when you kissed your little baby boy you have kissed the baby of God The blind will see; the deaf will hear; the dead will live again The lame will leap; the dumb will speak the praises of the Lamb Mary, did you know that your baby boy is the Lord of all creation?

Away In a Manger
Away in a manger, no crib for a bed The little Lord Jesus lay down His sweet head The stars in the sky looked down where He lay The little Lord Jesus, asleep on the hay The cattle are lowing, the baby awakes But the little Lord Jesus; No crying He makes I love thee, Lord Jesus; Look down from the sky And stay by my cradle ‘til morning is nigh Be near me, Lord Jesus; I ask thee to stay Close by me forever, and love me, I pray Bless all the dear children in thy tender care And fit us for heaven, to live with thee there.
The First Noel
The first Noel, the angel 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! Then entered in those wise men three, full reverently upon the knee And offered there in His presence, their gold and myrrh and frankincense Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel! Born is the King of Israel!
Hark! The Herald Angels Sing

The Herald angels sing, “Glory to the newborn King” Hail, the haven-born Prince of Peace! Hail, the Sun of Righteousness Light and Life to all He brings, Risen 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”

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 and heaven and nature sing Joy to the world! The Savior reigns Let men their songs employ While fields and floods, rocks, hills, and plains Repeat the sounding joy, Repeat the sounding joy Repeat, repeat the sounding joy No more let sins and sorrows grow Nor thorns infest the ground He comes to make His blessings flow Far as the curse is found, far as the course is found Far as, far as the curse is found.

O Little Town of Bethlehem
O Little Town of Bethlehem, how still we see thee lie Above thy deep and dreamless sleep the silent stars go by Yet in thy dark streets shine the Everlasting Light The hopes and fears of all the years are met in thee tonight How silently, how silently the wondrous gift is given So God imparts to human hearts the blessings of His heaven No ear may hear His coming, but in this world of sin Where meek souls will receive Him still, the dear Christ enters in
Silent Night! Holy Night!
Silent night, holy night; all is calm, all is bright Round yon’ virgin mother and child Holy infants 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 Heavenly hosts sing, “Alleluia! 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
We Three Kings
We three kings of Orient Are Bearing gifts, we traverse afar Field and fountain, moor and mountain, following yonder star O star of wonder, star of night, star with royal beauty bright Westward leading, still proceeding, guide us to thy perfect light Glorious now Behold Him arise, King and god and sacrifice Alleluia, Alleluia! Sounds thru earth and skies O star of wonder, star of night, star with royal beauty bright Westward leading, still proceeding, guide us to thy perfect light
While Shepherds Watched
While shepherds watched their flocks by night all seated on the ground The angel of the Lord came down And glory shone around, and glory shone around “Fear not!” said he, for mighty dread has seized their troubled minds “Glad tidings of great joy I bring you and all mankind, to you and all mankind” To you in David’s town this day is born, of David’s line The savior, who is Christ the Lord And this shall be the sign, and this shall be the sign The heavenly Babe you there shall find to human view displayed All meanly wrapped in swathing bands And in a manger laid, and in a manger laid All glory be to God on high, and to the earth be peace Goodwill henceforth from heaven to men Begin and never cease! Begin and never cease!
Amazing Grace
Amazing grace! How sweet the sound That saved a wretch like me I was once lost, but now am found Was blind but now I see ‘Twas grace that taught my heart to fear And grace my fears relieved How precious did that grace appear The hour I first believed Through many dangers, toils, and snares; I have already come ‘Tis grace hath brought me safe thus far And grace will lead me home When we’ve been there ten thousand years; Bright shining as the sun We’ve no less days to sing God’s Praise; than when we’d first begun
As the Deer
As the deer pants for the water; so my soul longs after you You alone are my heart’s desire And I long to worship Thee You alone are my strength, my shield To you alone may my spirit yield You alone are my heart’s desire; And I long to worship Thee You’re my friend and you are my brother Even though you are a king I love you more than any other; So much more than anything I want you more than gold and silver Only you can satisfy You alone are the real joy giver; And the apple of my eye
