O HOLY NIGHT 

VERSE 1
O holy night the stars are brightly shining
It is the night of our dear Saviour'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

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  

CHORUS 2
Christ is the Lord
O praise His Name forever
His power and glory evermore proclaim
O night divine
O night when Christ was born

INSTRUMENTAL

WHEN I THINK UPON CHRISTMAS

VERSE 1
When I think upon Christmas
Words can’t express
How our Father in heaven
Has sent us His best
To be born in a manger
The King in the hay
And creation will worship His Name

CHORUS 1
For the joy of the world
He was born
Bringing peace to us all
Through the gift of the Son
Now the darkest of ages are done
For the Saviour of heaven has come

VERSE 2
When I think upon Jesus
The King of all days
I can’t help but respond
With an offering of praise
Like the wise men and shepherds
I’ll follow Your light
Like the angels I’ll lift Your Name high

CHORUS 2
For the joy of the world
You were born
Bringing peace to us all
Through the gift of Your love
Now the darkest of ages are done
For the Saviour of heaven has come

INTERLUDE

VERSE 3
Now I look back in reverence
To that holy night
For the God of the heavens
Had us on His mind
Let us sing of His glory
Rejoice in His Name
Oh Emmanuel with us always
And forever His kingdom will reign
