and justice revealed to all.
Remembering kindness and faithfulness

All the ends of the earth

Joyfully sing out, all you lands,

With trumpet and with horn.
Sing in your joy before the King,

Offertory 145 What child is this

What Child is this, who laid to rest,
On Mary's lap is sleeping?
Whom angels greet with anthems sweet,
While shepherds watch are keeping?
This, this is Christ the King,
Whom shepherds guard and angels sing:
come, greet the infant Lord,
The Babe, the Son of Mary!

Why lies He in such mean estate
Where ox and ass are feeding?
Good Christian, fear; for sinners here
The silent Word is pleading.
Nails, spear, shall pierce Him through,
The cross be borne, for me, for you:
Hail, hail, the Word made flesh,
The Babe, the Son of Mary!

So bring Him incense, gold and myrrh,
Come peasant, king, to own Him.
The King of kings salvation brings;
Let loving hearts enthrone Him.
Raise, raise, the song on high,
The Virgin sings her lullaby:
Joy joy for Christ is born,
The Babe, the Son of Mary!


Holy Holy Holy Holy 570s Holy, Holy, Holy (The Revised Gathering Mass)

Holy, Holy, Holy Lord,
Holy, Holy Lord God of hosts.
Heaven and earth, Heaven and earth
are full of your glory, Lord God of hosts.
Hosanna, hosanna, hosanna in the highest.
Hosanna, hosanna, hosanna in the highest.

Blessed, blessed is he who comes,
Blessed, blessed is he who comes,
Blessed is he, blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord.
Hosanna, hosanna, hosanna in the highest
Hosanna, hosanna, hosanna in the highest

Mem Acc.: 571b Memorial Acc. 2 (The Revised Gathering Mass) – melody only

When we eat this Bread and drink this Cup,
we proclaim your Death, O Lord,
we proclaim your Death, O Lord,
until you come again.
(repeat refrain)

Communion:
O Holy Night (sheet music)

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 appear'd 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 angels' voices! 
O night divine, O night when Christ was born; 
O night divine, O 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 come 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! O praise His Name forever, 
His power and glory evermore proclaim. 
His power and glory evermore proclaim.

137 Away in a Manger

Away in a manger, no crib for a bed
The little Lord Jesus laid down His sweet head
The stars in the bright sky looked down where He lay,
The little Lord Jesus asleep on the hay

The cattle are lowing, the baby awakes
But little Lord Jesus no crying He makes
I love Thee, Lord Jesus! Look down from the sky,
And stay by my side until morning is nigh.

Be near me, Lord Jesus; I ask Thee to stay
Close by me forever, and love me, I pray.
Bless all the dear children in Thy tender care
And fit us for heaven, to live with Thee there.


136 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 Alleluia;
Christ, the Saviour is born,
Christ, the Saviour 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.



Final Hymn 156 joy to the world

Joy to the world, the Lord has come!
Let earth receive her King;
Let ev'ry 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 earth, the Saviour reigns;
Let all their songs employ,
While fields and flocks,
rocks, hills, and plains
Repeat the sounding joy,
Repeat the sounding joy,
Repeat, repeat the sounding joy.

No more let sins and sorrows grow,
nor thorns infest the ground; 
He comes to make his blessings flow
far as the curse is found,
far as the curse is found,
far as, far as the curse is found.

He rules the world with truth and grace,
And makes the nations prove
The glories of His righteousness,
the wonders of His love,
the wonders of His love,
the wonders, wonders of His love.



156 Joy to the world

Joy to the world, the Lord has come!
Let earth receive her King;
Let ev'ry heart prepare Him room,

Joy to the earth, the Saviour reigns;
Let all their songs employ,
While fields and flocks,
rocks, hills, and plains
Repeat the sounding joy,
Repeat the sounding joy,
Repeat, repeat the sounding joy.

No more let sins and sorrows grow,
nor thorns infest the ground;
He comes to make his blessings flow

He rules the world with truth and grace,
And makes the nations prove
The glories of His righteousness,
the wonders of His love,
the wonders of His love,

the wonders, wonders of His love.
