Christmas Carols

The carol season has arrived to praise and sing the Lord’s name and to hail for the glory of His reign. Christmas is the time of the year where the vault of the church is filled with the heavenly echoes of the caroling sounds. It’s the season where everyone’s lip murmurs the hymn and the song of joy and the love of God, the Father.

Caroling is a great way to get into the Christmas spirit. Lilting melodies floating through the air remind us of the promise that Lord made to us and we made to Lord. Here are some of the evergreen Christmas carols, follow the lyrics and sing along.

O Holy Night

O holy night! The stars are brightly shining,

It is the night of the dear Saviour's birth.

Long lay the world in sin and error pining.

Till He appeared and the Spirit 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, the 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.

O'er the world a star is sweetly gleaming,

Now come the wise men from out of the Orient land.

The King of kings lay thus lowly manger;

In all our trials born to be our friends.

He knows our need, our weakness is no stranger,

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 he shall break, for the slave is our brother.

And in his name all oppression shall cease.

Sweet hymns of joy in grateful chorus raise we,

With all our hearts we praise His holy name.

Christ is the Lord! Then ever, ever praise we,

His power and glory ever more proclaim!

His power and glory ever more proclaim!

Hark! The Herald Angels Sing

Top

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 host proclaim,

"Christ is born in Bethlehem."

Hark! the herald angels sing,

"Christ is born in Bethlehem."

Christ, by highest heaven adored

Christ, the everlasting Lord;

Late in time behold Him come

Offspring of a virgin's womb.

Veiled in flesh the Godhead see;

Hail th' Incarnate Deity,

Pleased as man with man to dwell;

Jesus, our Emmanuel.

Come, Desire of nations come,

Fix in us Thy humble home;

Rise, the Woman's conquering Seed,

Bruise in us the Serpent's head.

Adam's likeness, Lord efface:

Stamp Thy image in its place;

Second Adam, from above,

Reinstate us in thy love.

Hail, the heav'n-born Prince of Peace!

Hail, the Son 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.

O Come All Ye Faithful

Top

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,

Christ the Lord!

God of God,

Light of Light,

Lo! He abhors not the Virgin's womb;

Very God,

Begotten, not created. Refrain

See how the shepherds

Summoned to His cradle,

Leaving their flocks, draw nigh to gaze!

We, too, will thither

Bend our hearts' oblations. Refrain

Lo, star-led chieftains,

Magi, Christ adoring,

Offer Him incense, gold and myrrh;

We to the Christ-child

Bring our hearts' oblations Refrain

Child, for us sinners,

Poor and in the manger,

Fain we embrace Thee with love and awe;

Who would not love Thee,

Loving us so dearly? Refrain

Sing, choirs of angels,

Sing in exultation,

O sing, all ye citizens of heaven above!

Glory to God,

In the highest!" Refrain

Yea, Lord, we greet Thee,

Born this happy morning,

Jesus, to Thee be all glory given;

Word of the Father,

Now in flesh appearing! Refrain

Away in a Manger

Top

Away in a manger, no crib for his 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.

I Saw Three Ships

Top

I saw three ships come sailing in, On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day; I saw three ships come sailing in, On Christmas Day in the morning.

And what was in those ships all three, On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day; And what was in those ships all three, On Christmas Day in the morning.

The Virgin Mary and Christ were there, On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day; The Virgin Mary and Christ were there, On Christmas Day in the morning.

Then let us all rejoice amen, On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day; Then let us all rejoice amen, On Christmas Day in the morning.

In Excelsis Gloria

When Christ was born of Mary free,

In Bethlehem in that fair city,

Angels sung e'er with mirth and glee,

In excelsis gloria,

Herdmen beheld these angels bright-

To them appeared with great light,

And said, "God's son is born this night." Refrain

This King is come to save His kind,

In the Scripture as we find;

Therefore this song we have in mind: Refrain

Then, dear Lord, for Thy great grace,

Grant us the bliss to see Thy face,

Where we may sing to Thy solace: Refrain

Infant Holy, Infant Lowly

Top

Infant holy, infant lowly,

For His bed a cattle stall;

Oxen lowing, little knowing

Christ, the babe, is Lord of all.

Swift are winging, angels singing,

Noels ringing, tidings bringing:

Christ the babe is Lord of all.

Flocks were sleeping, shepherds keeping

Vigil till the morning new

Saw the glory, heard the story,

Tidings of a gospel true.

Thus rejoicing, free from sorrow,

Praises voicing greet the morrow:

Christ the babe was born for you.

Jingle Bells

Top

Dashing through the snow

In a one-horse open sleigh;

O'er the fields we go,

Laughing all the way.

Bells on bobtail ring,

Making spirits bright;

What fun it is to ride and sing

A sleighing song tonight.

Oh! jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way;

Oh, what fun it is to ride in a one-horse open sleigh.

Hey! jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way;

Oh, what fun it is to ride in a one-horse open sleigh!

Joy to the World

Top

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 heav'n and nature sing.

Joy to the world! the Savior reigns:

Let men their songs employ,

While fields and floods, rocks, hills an plains

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, wonder of His love.
