Joy to the World (Unspeakable Joy)
Joy to the world, the Lord is come!
Let earth receive her King!
Let every heart prepare Him room,
And heav'n and nature sing,
And heav'n and nature sing,
And heav'n and heav'n and nature sing!
Joy to the world, the Savior reigns;
Let all their songs employ;!
While field and floods,
rocks, hills, and plains
Repeat the sounding joy,
Repeat the sounding joy,
Repeat, repeat the sounding joy!
Joy! Unspeakable joy!
An overflowing well,
No tongue can tell!
Joy! Unspeakable joy!
It rises in my soul,
Never lets me go!
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!
Joy! Unspeakable joy!
An overflowing well,
No tongue can tell!
Joy! Unspeakable joy!
It rises in my soul,
Never lets me go!
Joy! Unspeakable joy!
An overflowing well,
No tongue can tell!
Joy! Unspeakable joy!
It rises in my soul,
Never lets me go!

Come Thou Long-Expected Jesus
Come Thou long-expected Jesus
Born to set Thy people free!
From our fears and sins release us,
Let us find our rest in Thee!
Israel's strength and consolation,
Hope of all the earth Thou art;
Dear desire of every nation,
Joy of every longing heart!
Born Thy people to deliver!
Born a child and yet a King!
Born to reign in us forever,
Now Thy gracious Kingdom bring!
By Thine own eternal Spirit
Rule in all our hearts alone!
By Thine all sufficient merit
Raise us to Thy glorious throne!
Charles Wesley, Christian Friedrich Witt, 1744, Public Domain
Hope Has a Name
Breaking through the silence
With glory in the highest,
The hope of all creation
Resting in his mother's arms
A song on the horizon
Ringing through the heavens,
The long-awaited Savior
Come to set the captives free!
...to set us free!
Hope has a name, Emmanuel!
The Light of the World
Who broke through the darkness!
All hail the King, Emmanuel!
The Light of the World!
The Glory of Heaven!
We didn't see it coming,
The story of redemption!
What started in a manger
Ended in an empty grave!
Hope has a name, Emmanuel!
The Light of the World
Who broke through the darkness!
All hail the King, Emmanuel!
The Light of the World!
The Glory of Heaven!
Come if you're broken,
Come if you're searching,
If you need healing
He's where you find it!
Lay down your burdens
And breathe in forgiveness!
If you need freedom
He's where you find it!
Oh if you need freedom
He's where you find it!
He's where you find it!
Hope has a name, Emmanuel!
The Light of the World
Who broke through the darkness!
All hail the King, Emmanuel!
The Light of the World!
The Glory of Heaven!
Hope has a name, Emmanuel!
The Light of the World
Who broke through the darkness!
All hail the King, Emmanuel!
The Light of the World!
The Glory of Heaven!

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 th'angelic hosts 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 the virgin's womb!
Veiled in flesh the Godhead see,
Hail the incarnate Deity!
Pleased as man with men to dwell,
Jesus our Emmanuel!
Hark the herald angels sing
Glory to the newborn King!
Hail the heav'n born Prince of Peace!
Hail the Sun of Righteousness!
Light and life to all He brings,
Ris'n 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!

O Come All You Unfaithful
O come, all you unfaithful,
Come, weak and unstable,
Come, know you are not alone!
O come, barren and waiting ones,
Weary of praying, come,
See what your God has done!
Christ is born!
Christ is born!
Christ is born for you!
O come, bitter and broken,
Come, with fears unspoken,
Come, taste of His perfect love!
O come, guilty and hiding ones!
There is no need to run!
See what your God has done!
Christ is born!
Christ is born!
Christ is born for you!
Christ is born!
Christ is born!
Christ is born for you!
He's the Lamb who was given;
Slain for our pardon!
His promise is peace
For those who believe!
So come, though you have nothing!
Come, He is the offering!
Come, see what your God has done!
Christ is born!
Christ is born!
Christ is born for you!
Christ is born!
Christ is born!
Christ is born for you!

Light of the World
Light of the World, Treasure of Heaven,
Brilliant like the stars in the wintery sky!
Joy of the Father,
reach through the darkness,
Shine across the earth,
Send the shadows to flight!
Light of the World, from the beginning
The tragedies of time
were no match for Your love!
From great heights of glory
You saw my story
God You entered in
and became one of us!
Sing hallelujah! Sing hallelujah!
Sing hallelujah for the things
He has done!
Come and adore Him!
Bow down before Him!
Sing hallelujah to the Light of the World!
Light of the world, Crown in a manger
Born for the cross, to suffer, to save!
High King of Heaven, death is the poorer
We are the richer
by the price that He paid
Sing hallelujah! Sing hallelujah!
Sing hallelujah for the things
He has done!
Come and adore Him!
Bow down before Him!
Sing hallelujah to the Light of the World!
Light of the World, soon will be coming
With fire in His eyes,
He will ransom His own!
Through clouds He will lead us
straight into glory
And there He shall reign forevermore!
Sing hallelujah! Sing hallelujah!
Sing hallelujah for the things
He has done!
Come and adore Him!
Bow down before Him!
Sing hallelujah to the Light of the World!

Heaven Has Come to Us
Unto us, from on high
Reaching down into the deepest night,
To the world hope has come!
In the dark, the Light of Life has dawned!
What a mystery, oh what love!
Oh how can it be that
Heaven has come to us?
Unto us, meek and mild,
God eternal born a helpless child
Set aside Heaven's throne,
Veiled in weakness came unto His own!
What a mystery, oh what love!
Oh how can it be that
Heaven has come?
What a mystery, oh what love!
Oh how can it be that
Heaven has come to us?
Unto us grace has come
Here to seek and bring the sinner home!
Lived to die, rose to reign,
Son of Man the Lamb for sinners slain!
What a mystery, oh what love!
Oh how can it be that
Heaven has come?
What a mystery, oh what love!
Oh how can it be that
Heaven has come to us?

O Holy Night
O holy night,
the stars are brightly shining!
It is the night of the dear Savior's birth!
Long lay the world
in sin and error pining,
Till 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!
Oh hear the angel voices!
O night divine;
O night when Christ was born!
O night, O holy night! O night divine!
Led by the light of faith serenely beaming
With glowing hearts
by His cradle we stand!
So led by light of a star sweetly gleaming,
Here came the wise men
from Orient land!
The King of kings lay thus
in lowly manger!
In all our trials born to be our Friend!
He knows our need,
to our weakness is no stranger!
Behold your King,
before Him lowly bend!
Behold your King,
before Him lowly bend!
Truly He taught us to love one another!
His law is love and His gospel is peace!
Chains shall He 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!
His power and glory evermore proclaim!
His power and glory evermore proclaim!
He knows our need,
to our weakness is no stranger!
Behold your King,
before Him lowly bend!
Behold your King,
before Him lowly bend!
Placide Cappeau, Adolphe Charles Adam, John S. Dwight, 1847, Public Domain
Silent Night
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,
Shepherds quake at the sight,
Glories stream from heaven afar,
Heavenly hosts sing allelulia,
Christ the Savior is born!
Christ the savior is born!
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!
Franz Gruber, 1818, Public Domain
