Christmas Carols

Angels From the Realms of Glory

Angels We Have Heard on High

Go, Tell It On the Mountain

God Rest Ye Merry Gentleman

Hark the Herald Angels Sing

It Came Upon a Midnight Clear

Joy to the World

O Come All Ye Faithful

O Little Town of Bethlehem

Silent Night

We Three Kings

​

Angels From the Realms of Glory

Angels, from the realms of glory,
Wing your flight o'er all the earth;
Ye, who sang creation's story,
Now proclaim Messiah's birth:
Come and worship,
Come and worship
Worship Christ, the new-born King.

​

Saints before the altar bending,
Watching long in hope and fear,
Suddenly the Lord, descending,
In his temple shall appear:

Refrain

 

Angels We Have Heard on High

​

Angels we have on heard high
Sweetly singing o'er the plains
And the mountains in reply
Echoing their joyous strains

​

Gloria in excelsis Deo
Gloria in excelsis Deo

​

Come to Bethlehem and see
Him whose birth the angels sing
Come adore on bended knee
Christ the Lord the newborn King

​

Go Tell It On the Mountain

​

Go tell it on the mountain,
Over the hills and ev'rywhere.
Go tell it on the mountain,
That Jesus Christ is born!

The shepherds kept their watching,
O'er silent flocks by night,
When lo! through-out the heavens,
There shone a holy light.

Refrain

​

Down in a lowly manger,
The humble Christ was born,
And God sent us salvation,
That blessed Christmas morn.

Refrain

​

God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen

​

God rest ye merry, gentlemen
Let nothing you dismay
Remember, Christ, our Savior
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

Now to the Lord sing praises,
All you within this place,
And with true love and brotherhood
Each other now embrace;
This holy tide of Christmas
All other doth deface.
O tidings of comfort and joy

Comfort and joy

O tidings of comfort and joy

​

Hark! the Herald Angels Sing

​

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 the angelic host proclaim:
"Christ is born in Bethlehem"
Hark! The herald angels sing
"Glory to the newborn King!"

Christ by highest heav'n adored
Christ the everlasting Lord!
Late in time behold Him come
Offspring of a Virgin's womb
Veiled in flesh the Godhead see
Hail the incarnate Deity
Pleased as man with man to dwell
Jesus, our Emmanuel
Hark! The herald angels sing
"Glory to the newborn King!"

​

​

It Came Upon a Midnight Clear

​

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, goodwill to men, from heav'n's all gracious king
The world in solemn stillness lay to hear the angels sing.

​

For lo the days are hastening on, by prophets seen of old
When with the ever circling years shall come the time foretold
When the new heaven and earth shall own the prince of peace their King
And the whole world send back the song which now the angels sing.

 

Joy to the World

​

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

​

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, wonders, of His love

​

O Come, All Ye Faithful

​

O come all ye faithful
Joyful and triumphant
O come ye
O come ye to Bethlehem
Come and behold him
Born the king of angels

O come let us adore him
O come let us adore him
O come let us adore him
Christ, the Lord

​

Yay, Lord we greet Thee

Born this happy morning!

Jesus, to Thee be all glory given.

Word of the Father, now in flesh appearing.

​

O Little Town of Bethlehem

​

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 gather all above
while mortals sleep the angels keep
their watch of wond'ring love!
O, morning stars together
proclaim the holy birth!
And praises sing to God our King
and peace to men on earth!

O, Holy Child of Bethlehem
descend to us we pray
cast out our sin, and enter in,
be born in us today!
We hear the Christmas Angels,
the great glad tidings tell
O, come to us, abide with us,
Our Lord Emanuel!

​

Silent Night

​

Silent night, Holy night
All is calm, all is bright
Round yon virgin, mother and child
Holy infant, 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.

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

​

We Three Kings

​

We three kings of orient are
Bearing gifts we traverse afar
Field and fountain, moor and mountain
Following yonder star

O star of wonder, star of night
star with royal beauty bright
westward leading, still proceeding
Guide us to thy perfect light!

Glorious now behold him arise
King and God and Sacrifice.
Alleluia, alleluia!
Sounds through the earth and skies.
