Verse 1

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 th'angelic hosts proclaim

Christ is born in Bethlehem

Hark the herald angels sing

Glory to the newborn King

Verse 1

Angels we have heard on high, sweetly singing o'er the plains

And the mountains in reply, echoing their joyous strains

Chorus

Gl o- ria, in excelsis Deo

Verse 1

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

Verse 3

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 take us to Heaven to live with Thee there

Verse 1

Silent night, Holy night, All is calm, all is bright

Round yon virgin, mother and child

Holy infant so tender and mild

Sleep in heavenly peace, Sleep in heavenly peace

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

Verse 3

Silent night, Holy night, Shepherds quake, at the sight

Glories stream from heaven above

Heavenly hosts sing Hallelujah

Christ the Savior is born, Christ the Savior is born
