Lyrics -
In the Bleak Midwinter
(Christina Rossetti)
In the bleak midwinter / frosty winds made moan
Earth stood hard as iron / water like a stone
Snow had fallen, snow on snow / snow on snow
In the bleak midwinter
Long, long ago
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 can I give him?
Give my heart
Joy to the World
(Isaac Watts)
Joy to the world, the lord is 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 world, 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
Joy to the world, the lord is 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
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 and wonders of his love
Winds Through the Olive Trees
(Traditional carol from 16th century Gascony)
Winds through the olive trees, softly did blow
'Round little Bethlehem, long long ago
Sheep on the hillside lay, whiter than snow
Shepherds were watching them, long long ago
Then from the happy skies, angels bent low
Singing their songs of joy, long long ago
For in a manger bed, cradled we know
Christ came to Bethlehem, long long ago
Winds through the olive trees, softly did blow
'Round little Bethlehem, long long ago
Hark! The Herald Angels Sing
(Charles Wesley)
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 host proclaim / Christ is born in Bethlehem
Hark the herald angels sing / Glory to the newborn king
Hail that heaven-born prince of peace / Hail that 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
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 host proclaim / Christ is born in Bethlehem
Hark the herald angels sing / Glory to the newborn king
