Silent Night Oh little town of Bethlehem
Silent Night
Holy Night Oh little town of Bethlehem,
All is calm how still we see thee lie
All is bright Above thy deep and dreamless sleep
the silent stars go by
Round yon virgin
Yet in thy dark streets shineth,
Mother and child the everlasting light
Holy infant so tender and mild The hopes and fears of all the years
Sleep in heavenly peace are met in thee tonight.
Sleep in heavenly peace
For Christ is born of Mary,
Silent Night and gathered all above
Holy Night While mortals sleep the angels keep
Shepeards pray at the sight their watch of wondering love
Glory streams from heaven afar Oh morning stars together,
Heavenly ? sing hallelujah proclaim thy holy birth.
Christ the Savior is born And praises sing to God the king,
Christ the Savior is born and peace to men on earth.

Silent Night Oh little town of Bethlehem,

Holy Night how still we see thee lie
All is calm Above thy deep and dreamless sleep
And all is bright the silent stars go by Yet
in thy dark streets shineth,
Round yon virgin 
the everlasting light
Mother and child The hopes and fears of all the years
Holy infant so tender and mild are met in thee tonight
Sleep in heavenly peace
Sleep in heavenly peace
Silent Night
Holy Night
Sleep in heavenly peace

 The First Noel Go Tell It On The Mountain

The first Noel, the angel did say, When I was a seeker 
Was to certain poor shepherds in fields as I sought both night and day, 
they lay; I asked the Lord to help me, 
In fields where they lay keeping their And he showed me the way. 
sheep,
On a cold winter's night that was so deep. Chorus 
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel, Go tell it on the mountain, 
Born is the King of Israel. Over the hills and everywhere,
Go tell it on the mountain, 
They looked up and saw a star Our Jesus Christ is born. 
Shining in the East, beyond them far;
And to the earth it gave great light, He made me a watchman 
And so it continued both day and night. Upon a city wall, 
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel, And if I am a Christian, 
Born is the King of Israel. I am the least of all. 

And by the light of that same star, Chorus 

Three wise men came from country far; Go tell it on the mountain, 
To seek for a King was their intent, Over the hills and everywhere,
And to follow the star wherever it went. Go tell it on the mountain, 
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel, Our Jesus Christ is born.
Born is the King of Israel.

This star drew night to the northwest,

O'er Bethlehem it took its rest;
And there it did both stop and stay,
Right over the place where Jesus lay.
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel,
Born is the King of Israel.

Then entered in those wise men three,

Full reverently upon their knee;
And offered there in his presence,
Their gold, and myrrh, and frankincense.
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel,
Born is the King of Israel.

And grace will lead me home. Holy, holy, holy! though the darkness hide

And mortal life shall cease, Holy, holy, holy! Lord God Almighty!

A life of joy and peace. earth, and sky, and sea;

We've no less days to sing God's praise
Than when we'd first begun

Standing On The Promises of God What A Friend We Have in Jesus Lyrics

Standing on the promises of Christ my What a friend we have in Jesus,

King,
All our sins and griefs to bear!
Through eternal ages let his praises ring;
Glory in the highest, I will shout and sing, What a privilege to carry
Standing on the promises of God. Everything to God in prayer!
Standing, standing, Oh, what peace we often forfeit,
Standing on the promises of God my Oh, what needless pain we bear,
Savior; All because we do not carry
Everything to God in prayer!
Standing, standing,
I'm standing on the promises of God. Are we weak and heavy-laden,
Cumbered with a load of care?
Standing on the promises I cannot fall, Precious Savior, still our refuge—
Listening every moment to the Spirit's call, Take it to the Lord in prayer.
Resting in my Savior as my all in all, Do thy friends despise, forsake thee?
Standing on the promises of God. Take it to the Lord in prayer!
[Refrain] In His arms He’ll take and shield thee,
Thou wilt find a solace there.

Blessed Savior, Thou hast promised

Thou wilt all our burdens bear;
May we ever, Lord, be bringing
All to Thee in earnest prayer.
Soon in glory bright, unclouded,
There will be no need for prayer—
Rapture, praise, and endless worship
Will be our sweet portion there.

Till my trophies at last I lay down And take me home
I will cling to the old rugged Cross What joy shall fill my heart
And exchange it some day for a crown Then I shall bow
In the old rugged Cross, stain'd with blood With humble adoration
so divine And then proclaim My God
A wondrous beauty I see How great Thou art
For the dear Lamb of God, left his Glory Then sings my soul
above My Savior, God, to Thee
To pardon and sanctify me How great Thou art
To the old rugged Cross, I will ever be true How great Thou art
Its shame and reproach gladly bear Then sings my soul
Then He'll call me some day to my home My Savior, God, to Thee
far away How great Thou art
Where his glory forever I'll share How great Thou art

So I'll cherish the old rugged Cross How great Thou art
Till my trophies at last I lay down How great Thou art
I will cling to the old rugged Cross
And exchange it some day for a crown

Little ones to Him belong; He makes me down to lie
They are weak, but He is strong. In pastures green; He leadeth me
The quiet waters by.
o Refrain:
Yes, Jesus loves me! My soul He doth restore again,
Yes, Jesus loves me! And me to walk doth make
Yes, Jesus loves me! Within the paths of righteousness,

As He loved so long ago, Yet will I fear no ill;
Taking children on His knee, For Thou art with me, and Thy rod
Saying, “Let them come to Me.” And staff my comfort still.
4. Jesus loves me still today, My table Thou hast furnished me
Walking with me on my way, In presence of my foes;
Wanting as a friend to give My head Thou dost with oil anoint,
Light and love to all who live. And my cup overflows.
5. Jesus loves me! He who died
Goodness and mercy all my life

Shall surely follow me;
He will wash away my sin,
And in God’s house forevermore,
Let His little child come in.
My dwelling place shall be.

Close beside me all the way;
Thou hast bled and died for me,
I will henceforth live for Thee.
