Christmas Eve Lyrics 2022

Oh Come All Ye Faithful

Oh come all ye faithful / Joyful and triumphant / Oh come ye­ / Oh come ye to Bethlehem / Come and behold Him / Born the King of angels

Oh come let us adore Him / Oh come let us adore Him / Oh come let us adore Him Christ the Lord

Sing choirs of angels / Sing in exultation / Oh sing all ye bright hosts of heaven above / Glory to God–All glory in the highest

Yea Lord we greet Thee / Born this happy morning / Jesus to Thee be all glory given / Word of the Father / Now in flesh appearing

 

The First Noel

The first Noel, the angels did say / Was to certain poor shepherds in fields as they lay / In fields where they lay, lay keeping their sheep / On a cold winter’s night that was so deep

Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel. Born is the King of Israel!

They looked up and saw a star / Shining in the east beyond them far / And to the earth it gave great light / And so it continued both day and night

Then let us all with one accord / Sing praises to our heavenly Lord / That hath made Heaven and earth of naught / And with His blood mankind hath bought

 

Hark the Herald Angels Sing

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, “Glory to the newborn King!”

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, incarnate Deity / Pleased as man with man to dwell / Jesus, our Emmanuel / Hark! The herald angels sing, “Glory to the newborn King!”

Hail! The Heaven–born Prince of 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 / Hark! The herald angels sing, “Glory to the newborn King!”

 

O Holy Night

O holy night! The stars are brightly shining / It is the night of the dear Savior’s birth / Long lay the world in sin and error pining  / Till 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, oh hear the angel voices / Oh night divine, oh night when Christ was born / Oh night, oh holy night, oh 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 came 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, oh Praise His name forever / His power and glory ever more proclaim  / His power and glory ever more proclaim

 

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 above / Heavenly hosts sing Alleluia / Christ the Savior is born / Christ the Savior is born

Silent night­, holy night / Son of God love’s pure light / Radiant beams from Thy holy face / With dawn of redeeming grace / Jesus Lord at Thy birth, Jesus Lord at Thy birth

He came to save us–He came to save us / He came to save us–Jesus, Jesus…

 

Go Tell It on The Mountain

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 / O’er silent flocks by night / Behold, throughout the heavens there shone a holy light

The shepherds feared and trembled / When lo! above the earth  / Rang out the angel chorus that hailed our Savior‘s birth

Down in a lowly manger the humble Christ was born / And God sent us salvation that blessed Christmas morn

He was born so I would be, so I would be, born again

 

Angels We Have Heard on High

Angels we have heard on high / Sweetly singing o’er the plains / And the mountains in reply / Echoing their joyous strains

Glo—ria in excelsis De-o / Glo—ria in excelsis De-o 

Shepherds, why this jubilee? Why your joyous strains prolong? / What the gladsome tidings be? Which inspire your heavenly song?

Come to Bethlehem and see / Him whose birth the angels sing / Come, adore on bended knee  / Christ the Lord, the new born King

 

Joy to the World (Unspeakable Joy)

Joy to the world the Lord is come / Let earth receive her King
Let every heart prepare Him room / And Heaven and nature sing 
And Heaven and nature sing / And Heaven–and Heaven and nature sing

Joy to the earth the Savior reigns / Let all their songs employ
While fields and floods, rocks, hills, and plains / Repeat the sounding joy
Repeat the sounding joy / Repeat–Repeat the sounding joy

Joy–unspeakable joy / Overflowing well–no tongue can tell
Joy–unspeakable joy / Rises in my soul–never lets me go

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 of His love / And wonders– wonders of His love
