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;
Refrain:
O come, let us adore Him,
O come, let us adore Him,
O come, let us adore Him,
Christ the Lord.
God of God,
Light of light,
lo! he abhors not the virgin's womb;
very God, begotten not created; (refrain)
O Sing, choirs of angels,
Sing in exultation,
Sing all that hear in heaven God's holy word.
Give to our Father glory in the Highest; (refrain)
Yea, Lord, we greet Thee,
Born this happy morning,
Jesu, to thee be glory given;
Word of the Father,
now in flesh appearing; (refrain)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V4DUvf7O6Us
Refrain:
Come, come, come to the manger,
Children, come to the children's King;
Sing, sing, chorus of angels,
Stars of morning, o'er Bethlehem sing.
He lies 'mid the beasts of the stall
Who is Maker and Lord of us all;
The wintry wind blows cold and deary,
See, He weeps, the world is wearY;
Lord, have pity and mercy on me! (Refrain)
He leaves all His glory behind;
To be born and to die for mankind.
With grateful beasts His cradle chooses,
Thankless man His love refuses;
Lord, have pity and mercy on me! (Refrain)
To the manger of Bethlehem come,
To the Saviour Emmanuel's home;
The heav'nly hosts above are singing,
Set the Christmas bells a-ringing,
Lord, have pity and mercy on me. (Refrain)
Offertory hymn – What kind of throne
http://www.resoundworship.org/song/what_kind_of_throne
What kind of throne is a manger of hay,
no majesty shown there, no dignity claimed,
for one who deserves to be
crowned and enthroned on our praise?
What kind of king is so modestly born,
when glory unmeasured is humble and small?
This is the hope of the world
and the true light of all.
Refrain:
So I'll bow down to worship the humblest of kings
and I'll bring him the best that I have;
I'll say that I love him, and that I am his,
and I'll give him the throne of my heart,
I'll give him the throne of my heart.
What kind of Saviour makes weakness his strength,
in frailty depending on those he would save,
and veiling the power
that always belonged to his name?
What kind of child causes heaven to sing,
with angels proclaiming the hope that he brings?
This is the glory of God,
this is Jesus, the King.

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.

Our Father (Boyce and Stanley)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9tGqHrR8J0U
Our Father, who art in heaven
hallowed be Your Name,
Your kingdom come,
Your will be done,
on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread
And forgive our weaknesses,
and those who fail us,
trespass against us,
as you forgave let us forgive.
Deliver us, from every evil,
let us not be led astray.
Your kingdom come, your will be done,
as you taught us, Lord, we pray.
(Priest says: Deliver us Lord...)
For the kingdom, and the power,
and the glory, Lord are Yours.
As they are today, will be tomorrow
and shall be forever more
we sing amen, we lift our voices;
with the heavens we proclaim.
Your kingdom come, your will be done,
We cry amen in Jesus' name.
We cry amen in Jesus' name.
Immanuel (Michael Card)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iE_tuMpIOho
A sign shall be given,
a virgin will conceive
A human baby bearing
undiminished deity
The glory of the nations,
a light for all to see
And hope for all who will embrace
His warm reality
Refrain:
Immanuel, our God is with us.
And if God is with us
Who could stand against us?
Our God is with us, Immanuel.
Bridge:
For all those who live in the shadow of death
A glorious light has dawned.
For all those who stumble in the darkness
Behold your light has come! (refrain)
So what will be your answer?
Oh, will you hear the call
of Him who did not spare His son
but gave him for us all
On earth there is no power,
there is no depth or height
could ever separate us
from the love of God in Christ (refrain)
Mary, did you know?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ecIXyYRnoo
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bXmfkFoX-PE
Mary, did you know that your baby boy
will one day walk on water?
Mary, did you know that your baby boy
will save our sons and daughters?
Did you know that your baby boy
has come to make you new?
This Child that you delivered
will soon deliver you?
Mary, did you know that your baby boy
will give sight to a blind man?
Mary, did you know that your baby boy
will calm a storm with His hand?
Did you know that your baby boy
has walked where angels trod?
And when you kiss your little baby
Youve kissed the face of God?
Oh, Mary, did you know?
The blind will see, the deaf will hear
And the dead will live again.
The lame will leap, the dumb will speak
The praises of the Lamb.
Mary, did you know
That your baby boy is Lord of all creation?
Mary, did you know that your baby boy
will one day rule the nations?
Did you know that your baby boy
was Heaven’s perfect Lamb?
And the sleeping child you're holding
Is the Great "I Am?"
#136 Silent Night
Alto/boys: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yww9fwTfvKY
tenor: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YLrwT6l648wAll 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.
What child is this? (optional)
Go, tell it on the mountain,
Over the hills and everywhere
Go, tell it on the mountain,
That Jesus Christ is born.
While shepherds kept their watching
Over silent flocks by night
Behold throughout the heavens
There shone a holy light. (Refrain)
The shepherds feared and trembled,
When lo! above the earth,
Rang out the angels chorus
That hailed the Saviour’s birth. (Refrain)
Down in a lowly manger
The humble Christ was born
And God sent us salvation
That blessèd Christmas morn. (Refrain)
