The Light Came Down
04:20
|
|||
There is a light
Bright star shining
In the dark night
Old tales come true
All of our fears
Hopes and prayers
He has heard
And answered us
The light came down
Cast the darkness away
He appeared
A helpless child
The light of god came down
There is a light
A new day dawning
Old things pass
All things made new
Prophets have spoken
All He would accomplish
When the light of God
Would dwell with men
The light came down
Cast the darkness away
He appeared
A helpless child
The light of god came to save us
To the world that He made us
O' Lord and savior
Alleluia

What Child Is This
03:52
|
|||
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
Why lies He in such mean estate
Where ox and donkeys are feeding
Good Christians fear
For sinners here
The silent Word is pleading.
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.
Nails, spears shall pierce him through,
The cross he bore for me, for you.
Hail, hail the word made flesh,
the babe, the Son of Mary.

The Virgin Mary had a one son
Ooh, glory hallelujah,
Ooh, pretty little baby,
Glory be to the new born King.
Mary what you gonna call that pretty little baby?
Ooh, pretty little baby,
Ooh, pretty little baby,
Glory be to the new born King.
He Cast Down the proud, and lifts up the lowly
Ooh, lifts up the lowly
Ooh, lifts up the lowly
Glory be to the new born King.
Well, some call Him Jesus, I think I'll call Him Savior
Ooh, I think I'll call Him Savior
Ooh, Jesus the savior,
Glory be to the new born King.

O Come O Come Emmanuel
03:38
|
|||
O come, O 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, O Israel.
Oh, come, our Dayspring from on high,
And cheer us by your drawing nigh,
Disperse the gloomy clouds of night,
And death's dark shadows put to flight.
Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel
Shall come to thee, O Israel!

Gloria
05:02
|
|||
Here the sound of bells ring
In the cold night air we sing
Songs of joy, peace, and love
Say goodnight and journey home
Through the leafless woods alone
Silence in the snow is like a dream
Diamonds on the hills reflect the thrill
Of all the glory that has fallen to the earth
All of life's surrendering
To the death that winter brings
In hope of new life
On this holy night
Holy night
We remember Christ
Music and Words by Josh Garrels
Come in from the cold
Come and rest your soul
Join us by the fire
Tonight the stories told
Ancient but never old
Of when the Savior came
All the angels sang
Peace on earth good will to men
A child has been born
And all of us are suffering
Beneath the weight of death and sin
In hope of new life
All our hopes made good in Christ
On this Holy Night
Holy Night
We worship Christ
Gloria, Gloria
Gloria, Gloria
Angels we have heard on high
In Excelsis Deo

O Holy Night
03:55
|
|||
O Holy night, the stars are brightly shining
It is the night of our dear Savior's birth
Long lay the world in sin and error pining
'Til He appeared and the soul felt its worth
A thrill of hope the weary world rejoices
For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn
Fall on your knees
O hear the angel voices
O night divine!
O night when Christ was born
O night divine!
O night, O night divine!
Truly He taught us to love one another,
His law is love and His gospel is peace.
Chains He shall break, for the slave is our brother.
And in His name, all oppression shall cease
Sweet hymns of joy in grateful chorus raise we
Let all within us praise His holy name
Christ is the Lord!
Oh Praise his name forever O hear the angel voices
O night divine!
O night when Christ was born O night divine!
O night, Christ was born

Shepherd's Song
03:27
|
|||
This begins with a breath
From the waters you were blessed
Pushing through the pain and blood
Into the arms of love
And your mother’s face above
Before you came she was afraid
In the night she cried and prayed
Oh God am I strong enough,
To be the arms of love
To be the mother of this son
O Beautiful one;
My child my son
We rejoice
From generation
To generation
We rejoice
All, like sheep, have gone astray
But you will call them back one day
By the marks of pain and blood
Back to the arms of love;
The good Father’s face above

The Boar's Head
02:28
|
|||
The boar's head in hand bear I
Bedecked with bays and rosemary;
And I pray you my masters be merry,
Quot estis in convivio [as many as are at the feast].
Refrain
Caput apri defero [I bring in the boar's head]
Reddens laudes Domino [Giving thanks to the lord]
The boar's head as I understand
Is the rarest dish in all the land,
When thus bedecked with a gay garland,
Let us servire cantico [serve it with a song].
Our steward hath provided this
In honour of the King of bliss,
Which on this day to be served is
In Reginensis atrio [In Queen's Hall].

Silent Night
04:41
|
|||
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
Wondrous star, lend thy light;
With the angels let us sing,
Alleluia to our King;
Christ the Savior is born,
Christ the Savior is born!

May You Find A Light
03:47
|
|||
Lost and weary traveler,
Searching for the way to go
Stranger, heavy-hearted,
Longing for someone to know
May you find a light
May you find a light
May you find a light to guide you home.
There are weary travelers,
Searching everywhere you go
Strangers who are searching,
Longing deeply to be known

O Day Of Peace
02:31
|
|||
O day of peace that dimly shines
Through all our hopes and prayers and dreams,
Guide us to justice, truth, and love,
Delivered from our selfish schemes.
May the swords of hate fall from our hands,
Our hearts from envy find release,
Till by God's grace our warring world
Shall see Christ's promised reign of peace.
Then shall the wolf dwell with the lamb,
Nor shall the fierce devour the small;
As beasts and cattle calmly graze,
A little child shall lead them all.
Then enemies shall learn to love,
All creatures find their true accord;
The hope of peace shall be fulfilled,
For all the earth shall know the Lord.
|

Come To Him
01:27
|
|||
Come to Him
With all your heart
Come and lay your burdens down
For peace He came to give
And Joy shall be the crown
And Joy shall be the crown
