His mother a virgin, and sinless His birth;
The Father eternal His Father alone:
He sleeps in the manger; He reigns on the throne.Refrain
Then let us adore Him, and praise His great love:
To save us poor sinners He came from above.A Babe on the breast of a maiden He lies,
Yet sits with the Father on high in the skies;
Before Him their faces the seraphim hide,
While Joseph stands waiting, unscared, by His side.Refrain
Lo! here is Emmanuel, here is the Child,
The Son that was promised to Mary so mild;
Whose power and dominion shall ever increase,
The Prince that shall rule o’er a kingdom of peace.Refrain
The Wonderful Counselor, boundless in might,
The Father’s own image, the beam of His light;
Behold Him now wearing the likeness of man,
Weak, helpless, and speechless, in measure a span.Refrain
O wonder of wonders, which none can unfold:
The Ancient of Days is an hour or two old;
The Maker of all things is made of the earth,
Man is worshipped by angels, and God comes to birth:Refrain
The word in the bliss of the Godhead remains,
Yet in flesh comes to suffer the keenest of pains;
He is that He was, and forever shall be,
But becomes that He was not, for you and for me.Refrain

Who yet shalt bear such bitter woes;
Earth’s light and comfort Thou shalt be,
Yet none shall watch to comfort Thee.All heav’ns are Thine, yet Thou dost come
To sojourn in a stranger’s home;
Thou hangest on Thy mother’s breast
Who art the joy of spirits blest.Now fearless I can look on Thee,
From sin and grief Thou sett’st me free;
Thou bearest wrath, Thou conquerest death,
Fear turns to joy Thy glance beneath.Thou art my Head, my Lord divine,
I am Thy member, wholly Thine,
And in Thy Spirit’s strength would still
Serve Thee according to Thy will.Thus will I sing Thy praises here
With joyful spirit year by year;

And shelter she fain in a manger would find;
For full was the inn, and no room was within,
Save where to the stalls the mute oxen they bind.Refrain

Oh our Brother and our God!All was lost in Adam’s fall;
All in Thee is now recovered.
Once to sin and death a thrall,
O’er the pit of hell I hovered:
Now I learn to cling to Thee—
Once with Adam, one with me.Out of Heav’n didst Thou come down;
Out of hell my soul deliver.
Scarce a stall in David’s town,
Welcomed Thee; but, gracious Giver,
Grant to us beyond the sky,
Each a starry home on high.Cleaves my soul to dross and dust;
Help me, Lord, I sink and perish;
Purge my heart of earthly lust,
Life divine within me cherish;
Dweller in the manger, Thou,
Dwell Thyself within me now.Scant and mean the swaddling clothes,
Limbs divine, like Thine, to cover!
Be the sin my spirit loathes
Bound in them and covered over:
But myself be clothed in Thee,
Jesu, by Thy Spirit free.Ah! the pain that came to Thee,
In the hard and narrow manger!
May my spirit cradled be
In Thy heart, secure from danger,
When my weary head is hid
Underneath the coffin lid.Is it still the devil’s lust
Souls of men in sin to smother?

God became my Friend and Brother!

As I hear, far and near, sweetest angel voices;
“Christ is born,” their choirs are singing,
Till the air, everywhere, now their joy is ringing.For it dawns, the promised morrow
Of His birth, who the earth rescues from her sorrow.
God to wear our form descendeth;
Of His grace to our race here His Son He sendeth.Yea, so truly for us careth,
That His Son, all we’ve done, as our offering beareth;
As our Lamb Who, dying for us,
Bears our load, and to God, doeth in peace restore us.Hark! a voice from yonder manger,
Soft and sweet, doth entreat, “Flee from woe and danger;
Brethren, come; from all that grieves you
You are freed; all you need I will surely give you.”Come, then, let us hasten yonder;
Here let all, great and small, kneel in awe and wonder,
Love Him Who with love is yearning;
Hail the star that from far bright with hope is burning.Ye who pine in weary sadness,
Weep no more, for the door now is found of gladness.
Cling to Him, for He will guide you
Where no cross, pain or loss, can again betide you.Hither come, ye poor and wretched:
Know His will is to fill every hand outstretchèd;
Here are riches without measure,
Here forget all regret, fill your hearts with treasure.Blessèd Savior, let me find Thee!
Keep Thou me close to Thee, cast me not behind Thee!
Life of life, my heart Thou stillest,
Calm I rest on Thy breast, all this void Thou fillest.Thee, dear Lord, with heed I’ll cherish;
Live to Thee and with Thee, dying, shall not perish;
But shall dwell with Thee for ever,
Far on high, in the joy that can alter never.Forth today the Conqueror goeth,
Who the foe, sin and woe, death and hell, o’erthroweth.
God is man, man to deliver;
His dear Son now is one with our blood forever.Shall we still dread God’s displeasure,
Who, to save, freely gave His most cherished Treasure?
To redeem us, He hath given
His own Son from the throne of His might in Heaven.Should He who Himself imparted
Aught withhold from the fold, leave us broken hearted?
Should the Son of God not love us,
Who, to cheer sufferers here, left His throne above us?If our blessèd Lord and Maker
Hated men, would He then be of flesh partaker?
If He in our woe delighted,
Would He bear all the care of our race benighted?He becomes the Lamb that taketh
Sin away and for aye full atonement maketh.
For our life His own He tenders
And our race, by His grace, meet for glory renders.Play source: Cyberhymnal -

[Luk 2:11] Child This Day Is Born, A
A Child this day is born,
A Child of high renown.
Most worthy of a scepter,
A scepter and a crown.Refrain
Noëls, noëls, noëls,
Noëls sing all we may,
Because the King of all kings
Was born this blessèd day.The which the holy prophets
Spoke of long time before,
That from the fall of Adam
He should us all restore.Refrain
This Child both God and Man
From Heaven down to us came,
He is the King of all Kings,
And Jesus is His Name.Refrain
These tidings shepherds heard
In their field watching their fold,
Was by an angel unto them
That night revealed and told.Refrain
Who standing near by them
To them shinèd so bright,
That they amazèd were
At that most glorious sight.Refrain
To whom the angel spoke,
Saying, “Be not afraid;
Be glad, poor silly shepherds;
Why are you so dismayed?”Refrain
“For lo, I bring you tidings
Of gladness and of mirth,
Which cometh to all people by
This holy Infant’s birth.”Refrain
“Him hath God lifted up
As light and shepherd’s horn,
Which in the city of David
This present time was born.”Refrain
“The only Son of God was He
The Lord and God most highest;
And He is the true Shepherd,
The young Child Jesus Christ.”Refrain
Then there was with the angel
A host incontinent
Of heavenly bright soldiers,
Which from the Highest was sent.Refrain
Lauding the Lord our God,
And His celestial King;
“All glory be in paradise,”
This heavenly host did sing.Refrain
“Glory be unto our God,

With praises and with triumph great,
And joyful melody.”Refrain
But when this holy army
Of heavenly soldiers bright
Was unto God returnèd
And vanished out of sight;Refrain

At this great glorious news
That the King of all kings
Was risen amongst the Jews.Refrain
Without the least of hindrance
Anon they went in then,
And found the young Child Jesus Christ
Thus born in Bethlehem.Refrain
And as the angel told them,
So to them did appear;
They found the young Child Jesus Christ
With Mary his mother dear.Refrain
Now such a place it was
Where this was come to pass
For want of room this Child was laid
Betwixt an ox and ass.Refrain
Not sumptuously, but simply
Was this young King arrayed,
A manger was the cradle
Where this young Child was laid.Refrain
No pride at all was found
In this most holy Child,
But He being void of all sin
The Lamb of god most mild.Refrain
His body unto bitter pains
He gave to set us free:
He is our Savior Jesus Christ
And none but only He.Refrain
To Father, Son and Holy Ghost
All glory be therefore,
To Whom be all dominion
Both now and evermore.Refrain

[Luk 2:11] Christians, Carol Sweetly
Christians, carol sweetly, up today and sing!
’Tis the happy birthday of our holy King:
Haste we then to greet Him, humbly falling down,
While our hands entwine Him, dearest Babe, a crown.Crowds of snow-white angels throng the golden stair;
All things are delightful, all things passing fair;
Bells, clear music making, peal the news to earth;
Chimes within make answer, all is glee and mirth.Michael, at the manger, bows his royal face;
Gabriel, with lily, hides transcendent grace:
For, dear friends, the glory of that lowly bed
Overpowers the beauty on archangels shed.Shall I tell of Joseph, who, with rapt surprise,
Sees the light from Godhead fill those infant eyes?
Shall I sing of Mary, who, upon her breast,
Cradles her Creator, soothes Him to His rest?Angels, Mary, Joseph, yes, I greet you all!
Falling down in worship at the manger stall!
For you hail our Monarch, born a Child today;
So with you I worship and my homage pay.Play source: Cyberhymnal -
[Luk 2:11] Come Hither, Ye Children
Come hither, ye children, O come one and all,
To Bethlehem haste, to the manger so small;
God’s Son for a gift has been sent you this night
To be your Redeemer, your joy and delight.He’s born in a stable for you and for me,
Draw near by the bright gleaming starlight to see,
In swaddling clothes lying, so meek and so mild,
And purer than angels—the heavenly Child.See Mary and Joseph with love-beaming eyes
Are gazing upon the rude bed where He lies;
The shepherds are kneeling, with hearts full of love,
While angels sing loud hallelujahs above.Kneel down and adore Him with shepherds today,
Lift up little hands now and praise Him as they;
Rejoice that a Savior from sin you can boast,
And join in the song of the heavenly host.O Jesus, my Savior, what must not be done,
What must not be suffered for sin to atone!
From infancy sorrow and pain Thou must know
Till Thou on the cross tasteth death’s bitter woe.Dear Christ Child, what gifts can we children bestow,
By which our affection and gladness to show?
No riches and treasures of value can be,
But hearts that believe are accepted with Thee.Our hearts, then, to Thee we will offer today,
We offer them gladly; accept them we pray,
And make them so spotless and pure that we may
Abide in Thy presence in Heaven for aye.Play source: Cyberhymnal -

Come, listen to my story,
Christus natus hodie:
Born is the King of glory,
Rex de Virgine.
Nowell, Nowell, good news I tell,
God comes on earth a stranger:
Eya! Emmanuel
Lies cradled in a manger.Came angels down, a number,
On the midnight of His birth:
“Ye shepherds, wake from slumber:
Peace, goodwill on earth,
And bliss on high,” the angels cry,
“To you is born and given,
Eya! of maid Marie,
Th’almighty Lord of Heaven.”Then rode three kings together,
Over desert, hill, and dale:
Nought caring for the weather,
Sleet, and snow, and hail.
They came from far, led by a star,
With beams that never vary:
Eya! full fain they are
To see the Babe of Mary.Away then banish sorrow;
Nato Regi psallite;
Sith Christ is born this morrow,
Benedicte.
With angels eke and shepherds meek,
And with yon eastern sages,
Eya! let us go seek
The newborn King of ages.Play source: Cyberhymnal -
[Luk 2:11] Come, Shepherds, Come!
Come, shepherds, come! shake off your sleep,
And ope your weary eyes;
’Tis time to leave your folded sheep,
Come, shepherds, come, arise!
Hark! angels clad in bright array,
Burst forth in heav’nly song;
See! night grows brighter than the day,
Lit by their glistening throng.Around the hut wherein I slept
A gleam of light was seen.
And golden strings of harps were swept
By angels clad in sheen.
What sounds of joy the air then stirred!
What hymns of holy rest!
In terra pax above I heard
And Christus natus est.We, too, this welcome news did hear
From angels in the air,
They bade us cast away all fear,
And to the town repair.
We hastened to the humble stall,
The Holy Child we sought;
On bended knee each one did fall,
And humble offerings brought.Then know, all friends, who wish to see
Your sweet Redeemer’s face,
Though long, the way full short will be,
If ye but ask His grace.
No thorns your faithful steps shall stay
And light will shine around;
All doubts and fears will pass away
When Jesus Christ is found.Play source: Cyberhymnal -
[Luk 2:11] I Sing The Birth Was Born Tonight
I sing the birth was born tonight,
The Author both of life and light;
The angels so did sound it,
And like the ravished shepherds said,
Who saw the light, and were afraid,
Yet searched, and true they found it.The Son of God, th’eternal King,
That did us all salvation bring,
And freed the soul from danger;
He Whom the whole world could not take,
The Word, which Heaven and earth did make,
Was now laid in a manger.The Father’s wisdom willed it so,
The Son’s obedience knew no “No,”
Both wills were in one stature;
And as that wisdom had decreed,
The Word was now made Flesh indeed,
And took on Him our nature.What comfort by Him do we win?
Who made Himself the Prince of sin,
To make us heirs of glory?
To see this Babe, all innocence,
A Martyr born in our defense,
Can man forget this story?Play source: Cyberhymnal -

The joyful morn is breaking, the brightest morn on earth,
Through all creation waking the joy of Jesus’ birth.

And all the earth is listening, the carol of the skies.High strains of praise are swelling, from angel hosts on high,
And one soft voice is telling glad tidings from the sky;
Tidings of free salvation, of peace on earth below,
Through every land and nation, the blessèd word shall go.His children’s songs shall name Him in many a tongue today;
His Church shall yet proclaim Him to people far away;
Till idols fall before Him, till strife and wrong shall cease,
Till all the earth adore Him, th’eternal Prince of Peace.Play source: Cyberhymnal -

Like silver lamps in a distant shrine,
The stars are sparkling bright;
The bells of the city of God ring out,
For the Son of Mary is born tonight.
The gloom is past, and the morn at last
Is coming with orient light.No earthly songs are half so sweet
As those which are filling the skies,
And never a palace shone half so fair
As the manger-bed where our Savior lies;
No night in the year is half so dear
As this which has ended our sighs.The stars of heaven still shine as at first
They gleamed on this wonderful night,
The bells of the city of God peal out,
And the angels’ song still rings in the height,
And loves still turns where the Godhead burns,
Hid in flesh from fleshly sight.Faith sees no longer the stable floor,
The pavement of sapphire is there,
The clear light of Heaven streams out to the world,
And the angels of God are crowding the air,
And Heaven and earth, thro’ the spotless birth,
Are at peace on this night so fair.Play source: Cyberhymnal -

And gives us His own Son.He leaves His heav’nly Father’s throne
Is born an Infant small,
And in a manger, poor and lone,
Lies in a humble stall.He veils in flesh His power divine

In want and lowliness must pine
Who Heav’n and earth did make.He nestles at His mother’s breast,
Receives her tender care,
Whom angels hail with joy most blest,
King David’s royal Heir.’Tis He who in these latter days
From Judah’s tribe should come,
By Whom the Father would upraise
The Church, His Christendom.A wondrous change which He does make!
He takes our flesh and blood,
And He conceals for sinners’ sake
His majesty of God.He serves that I a lord may be;
A great exchange indeed!

To help me in my need?He opens us again the door
Of paradise today;
The angel guards the gate no more
To God our thanks we pay.Play source: Cyberhymnal -
