O Sing a Song of Bethlehem
Author: Louis F. Benson Hymnal: Celebrating Grace Hymnal #164 (2010) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Topics: Christian Year-Christmastide First Line: O sing a song of Bethlehem Lyrics: 1 O sing a song of Bethlehem,
of shepherds watching there,
and of the news that came to them
from angels in the air.
The light that shone on Bethlehem
fills all the world today;
of Jesus' birth and peace on earth
the angels sing alway.
2 O sing a song of Nazareth,
of sunny days of joy,
O sing of fragrant flowers' breath,
and of the sinless Boy;
for now the flowers of Nazareth
in every heart may grow;
now spreads the fame of His dear name
on all the winds that blow.
3 O sing a song of Galilee,
of lake and woods and hill,
of Him who walked upon the sea
and made its waves be still;
for though, like waves on Galilee,
dark seas of trouble roll,
when faith has heard the Master's word,
falls peace upon the soul.
4 O sing a song of Calvary,
its glory and dismay;
of Him who hung upon the tree
and took our sins away.
For He who died on Calvary
is risen from the grave,
and Christ, our Lord, by heaven adored,
is mighty now to save. Languages: English Tune Title: KINGSFOLD

O Little Town of Bethlehem
Author: Phillips Brooks, 1835-93 Hymnal: Worship Supplement #715 (1969) Meter: 8.6.8.6.7.6.8.6 Topics: The Christian Year Christmastide Lyrics: 1 O little town of Bethlehem,
How still we see thee lie!
Above thy deep and dreamless sleep
The silent stars go by;
Yet in thy dark streets shineth
The everlasting Light;
The hopes and fears of all the years
Are met in thee tonight.
2 For Christ is born of Mary,
And gathered all above
While mortals sleep, the angels keep
Their watch of wondering love.
O morning stars, together
Proclaim the holy birth,
And praises sing to God, the King,
And peace to men on earth.
3 How silently, how silently
The wondrous Gift is given!
So God imparts to human hearts
The blessings of his heaven.
No ear may hear his coming,
But in this world of sin,
Where meek souls will receive him, still
The dear Christ enters in.
4 O holy Child of Bethlehem,
Descend to us, we pray;
Cast out our sin and enter in,
Be born in us today.
We hear the Christmas angels
The great glad tidings tell;
O come to us, abide with us,
Our Lord Immanuel! Tune Title: FOREST GREEN

What Child Is This
Author: William Chatterton Dix, 1837-98) Hymnal: Worship Supplement #719 (1969) Meter: 8.7.8.7.6.8.6.7 Topics: The Christian Year Christmastide First Line: What Child is this, who, laid to rest Lyrics: 1 What Child is this, who, laid to rest,
On Mary's lap is sleeping?
Whom angels greet with anthems sweet
While shepherds watch are keeping?
This, this is Christ the King,
Whom shepherds guard and angels sing:
Haste, haste to bring him laud,
The Babe, the Son of Mary!
2 Why lies he in such mean estate
Where ox and ass are feeding?
Good Christian, fear; for sinners here
The silent Word is pleading.
Nails, spear shall pierce him through,
The cross be borne for me, for you:
Hail, hail the Word made flesh,
The Babe, the son of Mary!
3 So bring him incense, gold, and myrrh,
Come peasant, king, to own him.
The King of kings salvation brings;
Let loving hearts enthrone him.
Raise, raise the song on high,
The Virgin sings her lullaby:
Joy, joy, for Christ is born,
The Babe, the son of Mary!

Gentle Mary Laid Her Child
Author: Joseph Simpson Cook, 1859-1933 Hymnal: Worship Supplement #716 (1969) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: The Christian Year Christmastide Lyrics: 1 Gentle Mary laid her Child
Lowly in a manger;
There he lay, the Undefiled,
To the world a stranger.
Such a Babe in such a place,
Can he be the Saviour?
Ask the saved of all the race
Who have found his favor.
2 Angels sang about his birth,
Wise men sought and found him;
Heaven's star shone brightly forth
Glory all around him.
Shepherds saw the wondrous sight,
Heard the angels singing;
All the plains were lit that night,
All the hills were ringing.
3 Gentle Mary laid her Child
Lowly in a manger;
He is still the Undefiled,
But no more a stranger.
Son of God of humble birth,
Beautiful the story;
Praise his name in all the earth;
Hail! the King of glory! Tune Title: TEMPUS ADEST FLORIDUM
Gentle Mary Laid Her Child
