O come, all ye faithful
Thou didst leave Thy throne
Author: Emily E. S. Elliott, 1836-1897 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #130 (1917) Topics: Bethlehem Christ born in Lyrics: 1 Thou didst leave Thy throne
And Thy kingly crown
When Thou camest to earth for me,
But in Bethlehem's home
Was there found no room
For Thy holy nativity:
O come to my heart, Lord Jesus,
There is room in my heart for Thee!
2 Heaven's arches rang
When the angels sang,
Proclaiming Thy royal degree;
But of lowly birth
Didst Thou come to earth,
And in great humility;
O come to my heart, Lord Jesus,
There is room in my heart for Thee!
3 The foxes found rest,
And the birds had their nest
In the shade of the forest tree;
But Thy couch was the sod,
O Thou Son of God,
In the deserts of Galilee:
O come to my heart, Lord Jesus,
There is room in my heart for Thee!
4 Thou camest, O Lord,
With the living word,
That should set Thy people free;
But, with mocking scorn,
And with crown of thorn,
They bore Thee to Calvary:
O come to my heart, Lord Jesus,
Thy cross is my only plea!
5 When heaven's arches shall ring,
And her choirs shall sing
At Thy coming to victory,
Let Thy voice call me home,
Saying, "Yet there is room
There is room at My side for thee!"
And my heart shall rejoice, Lord Jesus,
When Thou comest and callest for me. Languages: English Tune Title: MARGARET

glory to the new-born King,
peace on earth, and mercy mild,
God and sinners reconciled.
Joyful, all you nations, rise,
join the triumph of the skies;
with the angelic host proclaim,
'Christ is born in Bethlehem'.
Refrain:
Hark! the herald angels sing,
glory to the new-born King.
2 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 the incarnate Deity,
pleased in human flesh to dwell,
Jesus, our Immanuel. [Refrain]
3 Hail the heaven-born Prince of Peace!
Hail the Sun of righteousness!
Light and life to all he brings,
risen with healing in his wings:

born that we no more need die,
born to raise us from the earth,
born to give us second birth. [Refrain] Scripture: 1 Peter 1:3-5 Languages: English Tune Title: MENDELSSOHN
Hark the herald angels sing
Christians, awake, salute the happy morn
Author: John Byrom, 1692-1763 Hymnal: Together in Song #306 (1999) Meter: 10.10.10.10.10.10 Topics: Jesus Christ Coming to Bethlehem Lyrics: 1 Christians, awake, salute the happy morn,
whereon the Saviour of the world was born;
rise to adore the mystery of love,
which hosts of angels chanted from above;
with them the joyful tidings first begun
of God incarnate and the Virgin's son.
2 Then to the watchful shepherds it was told,
who heard the angelic herald's voice, 'Behold,
I bring good tidings of a Saviour's birth
to you and all the nations on the earth;
this day has God fulfilled his promised word,
this day is born a Saviour, Christ the Lord.'
3 He spoke; and straightway the celestial choir
in hymns of joy, unknown before, conspire.
The praises of redeeming love they sang,
and heaven's whole orb with hallelujahs rang:
God's highest glory was their anthem still,
peace upon earth to people of good-will.
4 To Bethlehem straight the enlightened shepherds ran
to see the wonder of our God made man,
and found, with Joseph and the blessèd Maid,
her son, the Saviour, in a manger laid;
amazed, the wondrous story they proclaim,
the first apostles of his infant fame.
5 Like Mary, let us ponder in our mind
God's wondrous love in saving humankind;
trace we the Babe, who has retrieved our loss,
from the poor manger to the bitter cross;
tread in his steps, assisted by his grace,
until in heaven God's people take their place.
6 There may we hope, the angelic thrones among,
to sing, redeemed, a glad triumphal song:
he that was born upon this joyful day
around us all his glory shall display;
saved by his love, unceasing we shall sing
eternal praise to heaven's almighty King. Scripture: Luke 2:8-14 Languages: English Tune Title: STOCKPORT
Christians, awake, salute the happy morn
I Danced in the Morning
Author: Sydney Carter Hymnal: Voices United #352 (1996) Meter: Irregular Topics: Biblical Places Bethlehem Refrain First Line: Dance, then, wherever you may be Lyrics: 1 I danced in the morning
when the world was begun,
and I danced in the moon
and the stars and the sun,
and I came down from heaven
and I danced on the earth;
at Bethlehem I had my birth.
[Refrain:]
Dance, then, wherever you may be;
I am the Lord of the dance, said he,
and I’ll lead you all, wherever you may be,
and I’ll lead you all in the dance, said he.
2 I danced for the scribe
and the pharisee,
but they would not dance
and they would not follow me;
I danced for the fishermen,
for James and John;
they came with me
and the dance went on. [Refrain]
3 I danced on the Sabbath
and I cured the lame;
the holy people
said it was a shame;
they whipped and they stripped
and they hung me high,
and they left me there
on a cross to die. [Refrain]
4 I danced on a Friday
when the sky turned black;
it’s hard to dance
with the devil on your back;
they buried my body
and they thought I’d gone,
but I am the dance
and I still go on. [Refrain]
5 They cut me down
and I leap up high;
I am the life
that will never, never die;
I’ll live in you
if you’ll live in me;
I am the Lord
of the dance, said he. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: LORD OF THE DANCE

There came a little Child to earth
Author: Miss Emily E. S. Elliott, 1836-1897 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #616 (1917) Topics: Bethlehem Christ born in Lyrics: 1 There came a little Child to earth,
Long ago;
And the angels of God proclaim His birth
High and low
Out in the night so calm and still,
Their song was heard;
For they knew the Child on Bethlehem's hill
Was Christ the Lord.
2 Far away, in a goodly land,
Fair and bright
Children with crowns of glory stand,
Robed in white
In white more pure than the spotless snow;
And their tongues unite
In the psalm which the angels sang long ago
On that still night.
3 They sing how the Lord of that world so fair
A Child was born;
And, that they might His crown of glory share,
Wore a crown of thorn;
And in mortal weakness, in want and pain,
Came forth to die,
That the children of earth might in glory reign
With Him on high.
4 He has put on His kingly apparel now
In that goodly land;
And He leads to where fountains of waters flow
That chosen band
And for ever more, in their robes so fair
And undefiled,
Those ransomed children His praise declare
Who was once a child. Languages: English Tune Title: CHILDREN'S SONG
