Let the word of Christ dwell richly among you, in all wisdom teaching and admonishing one another through psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs, singing to God with gratitude in your hearts.

Colossians 3:16

Joy to the World

Joy to the world the Lord has 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 earth 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 sin or sorrow reign Nor thorns infest the ground He comes to make
His blessings known

Far as the curse is found
Far as the curse is found
Far as, far as the curse is found

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



Hark the Herald Angels Sing

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 heaven 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 man to dwell Jesus our Immanuel

Hark the herald angels sing Glory to the newborn King

Hail the heaven-born
Prince of Peace
Hail the Son 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

Go Tell It On the Mountain

Go tell it on the mountain Over the hills and everywhere Go tell it on the mountain That Jesus Christ is born!

While shepherds kept their watching O’er silent flocks by night
Behold throughout the heavens There shone a holy light

Go tell it on the mountain Over the hills and everywhere Go tell it on the mountain That Jesus Christ is born!

The shepherds feared and trembled When lo above the earth
Rang out the angel chorus
That hailed our Savior's

Go tell it on the mountain Over the hills and everywhere Go tell it on the mountain That Jesus Christ is born!

Down in a lowly manger
The humble Christ was born
And God sent us salvation
That blessed this Christmas morn

Go tell it on the mountain Over the hills and everywhere Go tell it on the mountain That Jesus Christ is born!



What Child Is This

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

So bring him incense
Gold and myrrh
Come peasant, king to own him The King of kings salvation brings Let loving hearts enthrone him

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 lamb are feeding? Good Christians fear
For sinners here
The Silent Word is pleading

Nails, spear shall pierce Him through The Cross He bore for me, for you Hail, hail, the Word made flesh
The Babe, the Son of Mary

This, this is Christ the King Whom shepherds guard
And angels sing
Haste, haste to bring Him laud



O Come All Ye Faithful

O Come all ye faithful
Joyful and triumphant
O come ye, O come ye to Bethlehem Come and behold Him
Born the King of Angels

O come, let us adore Him O come, let us adore Him O come, let us adore Him Christ the Lord

Sing, choirs of angels
Sing in exultation
Sing all ye citizens of heaven above Glory to God
All glory in the Highest

O come, let us adore Him O come, let us adore Him O come, let us adore Him Christ the Lord

True God of True God
Light from light eternal
Humbly he enters the virgin’s womb Son of the Father
Begotten not created

O come, let us adore Him O come, let us adore Him O come, let us adore Him Christ the Lord

O come, let us adore Him O come, let us adore Him O come, let us adore Him Christ the Lord
