NEW BABY AT CHRISTMAS

 

Oh, how our hearts melted

When you were born

A gift to us from God

Given on Christmas morn

OH JESUS SON OF MARY

 

It’s time to celebrate

Our saviour’s birth

It’s time to mark

The day he came to earth

 

It’s Christmas again

It’s time to rejoice

It’s time to sing

And to our praise give voice

 

So, praise the Prince of peace

Our majesty of mercy

Hallelujah Son of God

Oh, Jesus Son of Mary

WHEN THE GIFTS HAVE ALL BEEN OPENED

 

When the gifts have all been opened

And the season starts to wane

When December days have passed by

And a New Year starts again

Let’s pack away the decorations

But let the love and peace remain

CHRISTMAS ALPHABET

 

Angels from on high

Behold we bring news
Christ is coming

Do not be afraid
Emmanuel is coming
Follow yonder star

Go to Bethlehem
Hosanna God be praised

 

In the town of Bethlehem
Jesus was born
Kneeling shepherds before him

Lowing beasts in attendance
Magi from the east

Noel, noel, noel

 

On the first morning

Peace came to the world
Quelling fear and pain

Rekindling the light
Saviour son of God
The prince of peace was born
Uniting the world

 

Verily the most
Wondrous of times
Xmas festival of love
Yule tide of good will

Zion brought to earth

THE GREAT STAR OF LIGHT

 

The great star of light

Graced the nativity

Where the holy family,

Mary and her child

And the Noble Joseph

Dwelt in the humble stall

 

The beasts in the stable

The Kings of the east

And shepherds from the hill

Witnessed the gift of love

Given by a gracious God

To the sinful world

CHRISTMAS SERVICE

 

It was a bitterly cold and bleak Christmas morn

And had been snowing heavily since before the dawn

And for the morning service the waiting minister

Was eventually joined by just one solitary farmer

The clergyman said “Well even though it’s Christmas day

I don’t suppose there's no point in having a service today.”

The farmer replied “Well that's not quite how I see it.

If only one cow turns up at feeding time, I still feed it.”

CHRISTINGLE MINGLE

 

It is the season that makes my senses tingle

The time of year when the sleigh bells jingle

And we come together for the Christingle mingle

When the Clauses and the Grinches intermingle

And happy clappy’s and traditionalists comingle

As we celebrate the service of Christingle
