God rest ye merry, gentlemen
Let nothing you dismay
Remember, Christ, our Saviour
Was born on Christmas day
To save us all from Satan's power
When we were gone astray
O tidings of comfort and joy,
Comfort and joy
O tidings of comfort and joy
From God our Heavenly Father
A blessed Angel came;
And unto certain Shepherds
Brought tidings of the same:
How that in Bethlehem was born
The Son of God by Name.
O tidings of comfort and joy,
Comfort and joy
O tidings of comfort and joy

Falling for You

I want to go cut down my Christmas tree
And drink cocoa with you,
I want to decorate it from head to toe
In silver and blue
Let's go carolling and have a snowball fight
I bet you'll lose
I'll take a sleigh ride with you by my side
I'm falling for you
Falling, just watch me falling
Head over heals for you (falling)
Baby, don't try to save me
Just as the snow's falling
I'm falling for you
You can tie my skates, we'll make figure eights
Come hold my hand,
I know you're trying to impress, I got to look my best
You want to be my man
Falling, just watch me falling
Head over heals for you (falling)
Baby, don't try to save me
Just as the snow's falling
I'm falling for you

It came upon the midnight clear,
that glorious song of old,
from angels bending near the earth
to touch their harps of gold:
"Peace on the earth, good will to men,
from heaven's all-gracious King."
The world in solemn stillness lay,
to hear the angels sing.
Still through the cloven skies they come
with peaceful wings unfurled,
and still their heavenly music floats
o'er all the weary world;
above its sad and lowly plains,
they bend on hovering wing,
and ever o'er its Babel sounds
the blessed angels sing.

This Christmas
04:21

It's Christmas, my favourite time of year
But I seemed to have lost focus
The house is all prepared, but
My heart doesn't nearly feel there
I want you to be not just a declaration
But the reason for celebration
I want all hearts to know
Why there's Jesus in the Manger,
He shouldn't be a stranger,
This Christmas
God, I realize
That all this must hurt you
We really missed the point,
But I'll try my best to change that
I want you to be not just a declaration
But the reason for celebration
I want all hearts to know
Why there's Jesus in the Manger,
He shouldn't be a stranger,
This Christmas
We've tried for years
To fill our hearts with things that don't last
So I want you to be not just a declaration
But the reason for celebration
I want all hearts to know
Why there's Jesus in the Manger,
He shouldn't be a stranger,
This Christmas
We've finally found something that lasts
It's you

Waiting each day by the temple doors
Looking for the one who's to come
One who was promised long ago
God's only Son
To see him with my own failing eyes
Is my only desire before I die
Could this be the Saviour, coming as a child
Beautiful Creator, resting in my arms
Could this be the Saviour, coming as a child
Beautiful Creator, resting in my arms
In my old age I've waited long
Waited for the Promised One
Sleepless I have pondered long
Listening for the Messiah's call
But I know this hour of seeing him face to face
All the sorrow in a way will be erased
Could this be the Saviour, coming as a child
Beautiful Creator, resting in my arms
Could this be the Saviour, coming as a child
Beautiful Creator, resting in my arms
Now let your servant depart in peace
For I've seen the coming of the Lord
The consolation of the whole Earth
The light of the world
(Oooh)
Could this be the Saviour, coming as a child
Beautiful Creator, resting in my arms
Could this be the Saviour, coming as a child
Beautiful Creator, resting in my arms

In the Bleak Midwinter
02:29
|
|
||
|
In the bleak midwinter, frosty wind made moan,
earth stood hard as iron, water like a stone;
snow had fallen, snow on snow,
in the bleak midwinter, long ago.
Angels and archangels may have gathered there,
cherubim and seraphim rising in the air;
but his mother Mary, in her maiden bliss,
worshiped the beloved with a kiss.
Heaven cannot hold him, nor can earth sustain;
heaven and earth shall fall away when he reigns.
What can I give him, poor as I am?
If I were a shepherd, I would bring a lamb;
if I were a Wise Man, I would do my part;
What then can I give him: I will give my heart.

Lullay, Thou little tiny Child,
By, by, lully, lullay.
O sisters, too, how may we do,
For to preserve this day;
This poor Youngling for whom we sing,
By, by, lully, lullay.
Herod the King, in his raging,
Charged he hath this day;
His men of might, in his own sight,
All children young, to slay.
That woe is me, poor Child, for Thee,
And ever mourned day;
For Thy parting, neither say nor sing,
By, by, lully, lullay.
Lullay, Thou little tiny Child.
By, by, lully, lullay.

Come, thou long expected Jesus,
born to set thy people free;
from our fears and sins release us,
let us find our rest in thee.
Israel's strength and consolation,
hope of all the earth thou art;
dear desire of every nation,
joy of every longing heart.
Born thy people to deliver,
born a child and yet a King,
born to reign in us forever,
now thy gracious kingdom bring.
By thine own eternal spirit
rule in all our hearts alone;
by thine all sufficient merit,
raise us to thy glorious throne.

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 shineth
The everlasting Light
The hopes and fears of all the years
Are met in thee tonight
For Christ is born of Mary
And gathered all above
While mortals sleep, the angels keep
Their watch of wondering love
O morning stars together
Proclaim the holy birth
And praises sing to God the King
And Peace to men on earth
We hear the Christmas angels
The great glad tidings tell
O come to us, abide with us
Our Lord Emmanuel

Let the Christ Child In

Heaven breaking in
Our Emmanuel
Cold and starry night
Then the angels tell
Fear not, fear not
For a Saviour's come to you
He is Christ the Lord
You shall find him wrapped in swaddling cloths
And lying in a manger
Away in a manger
Let the Christ child in
Away in a manger
Let him free you from all sin
God became a man
Such a mystery
With us he came to dwell
He says to you and me
Fear not, fear not
For a Saviour's come to you
He is Christ the Lord
You shall him in my people
You shall find him in the streets
You shall see him in their laughter
In the bitter and the sweet
Away in a manger
Let the Christ child in
Away in a manger
Let him free you from all sin
Oh come Emmanuel (8x)
Oh come, oh come Emmanuel
And ransom captive Israel
That mourns in lonely exile here
Until the Son of God appears
Rejoice! Rejoice!
Emmanuel, shall come to thee, Oh Israel
Oh come thou Dayspring, come and cheer
Our spirits by thine Advent here
Disperse the gloomy clouds of night
And death's dark shadow put to flight
Rejoice! Rejoice!
Emmanuel, shall come to thee, Oh Israel
Oh come, Desire of nations, bind
All peoples in one heart and mind
Did envy, strife, and quarrel cease
Fill the whole world with Heaven's peace
Rejoice! Rejoice!
Emmanuel, shall come to thee, Oh Israel
Oh come Emmanuel (8x)
Away in a manger
Let the Christ Child in
Away in a manger
Let him free from all sins

Away in a manger, no crib for a bed
The little Lord Jesus lay down His sweet head
The stars in the bright sky looked down where he lay
The little Lord Jesus asleep on the hay
Be near me, Lord Jesus, I ask Thee to stay
Close by me for ever and love me, I pray
Bless all the dear children in Thy tender care
And take us to Heaven to live with Thee the
Turn your eyes upon Jesus,
Look full in His wonderful face,
And the things of earth will grow strangely dim,
In the light of His glory and grace
