Pg. 249 O come, all ye faithful, joyful and triumphant! O come ye, O come ye to Bethlehem! Come and behold Him, born the King of angels;

O come, let us adore Him, Christ the Lord!

Sing, choirs of angels, sing in exultation, O sing, all ye bright hosts of heav’n above! “Glory to God, all glory in the highest!”

O come, let us adore Him, Christ the Lord!

Yea, Lord, we greet Thee, born this happy morning; Jesus, to Thee be all glory giv’n; Word of the Father, now in flesh appearing!

O come, let us adore him, Christ the Lord! © 31054 O Come All Ye Faithful, John Francis Wade

Psalm 56: 3 When I am afraid, I put my trust in you. Psalm 56: 3

Pg. 251 It came upon the midnight clear, That glorious song of old, From angels bending near the earth To touch their harps of gold:

“Peace on the earth, good-will to men, From heaven’s all gracious King!” The world in solemn stillness lay To hear the angels sing.

And ye, beneath life’s crushing load, Whose forms are bending low, Who toil along the climbing way With painful steps and slow,

Look now! for glad and golden hours Come swiftly on the wing: O rest beside the weary road And hear the angels sing.

For lo, the days are hastening on, By prophets seen of old, When with the ever circling years Shall come the time foretold,

When peace shall over all the earth Its ancient splendors fling, And the whole world send back the song Which now the angles sing. © 31078, It Came Upon a Midnight Clear, Edmund H. Sears

Oh, the mercy our God has shown, To those who sit in death’s shadow The sun on high pierced the night, Born was the Cornerstone. Unto us a Son is given, Unto us a Child is born…

He Who is mighty has done a great thing, Taken on flesh, conquered death’s sting, Shattered the darkness and lifted our shame. Holy is His name.

Oh, the freedom our Savior won, The yoke of sin has been broken. Once a slave, now by grace, No more condemnation. Unto us a Son is given, Unto us a Child is born…

He Who is mighty has done a great thing, Taken on flesh, conquered death’s sting, Shattered the darkness and lifted our shame. Holy is His name.

Now my soul magnifies the Lord, I rejoice in the God Who saves. I will trust His unfailing love. I will sing His praises all my days.

I once was lost in darkest night yet thought I knew the way; the sin that promised joy and life had led me to the grave.

I had no hope that You would own a rebel to Your will, and if You had not loved me first I would refuse You still.

But as I ran my hell bound race, indifferent to the cost, You looked upon my helpless state and led me to the cross;

and I beheld God’s love displayed, You suffered in my place, You bore the wrath reserved for me, Now all I know is You.

Hallelujah! All I have is Christ! Hallelujah! Jesus is my life!

Now Lord I would be Yours alone and live so all might see the strength to follow Your commands could never come from me.

O Father use my ransomed life in any way You choose, and let my song forever be my only boast is You.

Hallelujah! All I have is Christ! Hallelujah! Jesus is my life! © 5174122, All I Have Is Christ, Jordan Kauflin

Pg. 253 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.

Silent night, holy night, Shepherds quake at the sight. Glories stream from heaven afar; Heavenly hosts sing alleluia. Christ the Savior is born!

Silent night, holy night. Wondrous star, lend thy light. With the angels let us sing Alleluia to our King. Christ the Savior is born!

Silent night, holy night, Son of God, love’s pure light Radiant beams from Thy holy face, With the dawn of redeeming grace, Jesus, Lord, at Thy birth. © 1527, Silent Night! Holy Night!, Joseph Mohr

Four Roles the Shepherds Played 1. Confirmation vs. 1 -7 2. Revelation vs. 8 -16

Romans 5: 12 Therefore, just as sin came into the world through one man, and death through sin, and so death spread to all men because all sinned

Romans 6: 23 For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.

John 1: 41 He first found his own brother Simon and said to him, “We have found the Messiah” (which means Christ).

John 4: 25 The woman said to him, “I know that Messiah is coming (he who is called Christ). When he comes, he will tell us all things. ”

John 7: 41 Others said, “This is the Christ. ” But some said, “Is the Christ to come from Galilee?
