CHRISTMAS SING-A-LONG!

ONCE IN ROYAL DAVID’S CITY

Once in royal David’s city
Stood a lowly cattle shed,
Where a mother laid her baby
In a manger for his bed:

Mary was that mother mild,
Jesus Christ her little child.

He came down to earth from heaven
Who is God and Lord of all,
And his shelter was a stable,

And his cradle was a Stall;
With the poor, and mean, and lowly,
Lived on earth our Saviour holy.

And, through all his wondrous childhood,
He would honour and obey,

Love, and watch the lowly maiden

In whose gentle arms he lay:

Christian children all must be

Mild, obedient, good as he.

For he is our childhood’s pattern,
Day by day like us he grew;
He was little, weak, and helpless,

Get away for a mini stay to

Which Christmas gift

Tears and smiles like us he knew;

And he feeleth for our sadness,
And he shareth in our gladness.

And our eyes at last shall see him.
Through his own redeeming love,
For that Child so dear and gentle

Is our Lord in heaven above;
And he leads his children on
To the place where he is gone.

Not in that poor lowly stable,

With the oxen standing by,

We shall see him; but in heaven,

Set at God’s right hand on high;
When like stars his children crowned,
All in white shall wait around.

HARK THE HERALD
ANGELS SING

Written in 1730, the words to the song were inspired by the
pealing of the church bells on Christmas morning. Charles
Wesley was to become one of the most famous Protestant
hymn writers. However it was not set to music until 1840 when
Dr. Cummings of Waltham Abbey fitted it to this tune by
Mendelssohn. It was published as such in 1856.

Hark the herald angels sing,
“Glory to the new-born King,
Peace on earth, and mercy mild,
God and sinners reconciled!’’
Joyful, all ye nations, rise,

Join the triumph of the skies,
With the angelic host proclaim,
*‘Christ is born in Bethlehem.’”’

Refrain:

Hark, the herald angels sing,
““Giory to the new-born King.’

’

Christ, by highest heaven adored,

Christ, the everlasting Lord,

Late in time behold Him Come,

Offspring of a virgin’s womb,
eiled in flesh the Godhead see;

Hail, the incarnate Deity,

Pleased as Man with man to dwell,

Jesus, our Emmanuel!

Hark, the herald angels sing,
“Glory to the new-born King.’”’

Hail, the heaven-born Prince af Peace!
Hail, the Son of Righteousness!

Light and life to all He brings,

Risen 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.

idea is great for
the whole family?

Hark, the herald angels sing,
“Glory to the new-born King.”’
