Lo, How a Rose E'er Blooming

Author: Unknown Hymnal: CH1957 #165 (1957) Lyrics: 1 Lo, how a rose e’er blooming From tender stem hath sprung! Of Jesse’s lineage coming As men of old have sung. It came a floweret bright, Amid the cold of winter, When half spent was the night. 2 Isaiah ’twas foretold it, The rose I have in mind; With Mary we behold it, The virgin mother kind. To show God’s love aright, She bore to men a Savior, When half spent was the night.

While Humble Shepherds Watched

O Little Town of Bethlehem

Author: Phillips Brooks Hymnal: CH1957 #168 (1957) 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!

It Came upon the Midnight Clear

Author: Edmund H. Sears Hymnal: CH1957 #171 (1957) Lyrics: 1 It came upon the midnight clear, That glorious song of old, From angels bending near the earth To touch their harps of gold; "Peace to the earth, good will to men, From heaven's all-gracious King!" The earth in solemn stillness lay, To hear the angels sing. 2 Still through the cloven skies they come, With peaceful wings unfurled; And still celestial music floats O'er all the weary world: Above its sad and lonely plains They bend on hovering wing, And ever o'er its babel sounds The blessed angels sing. 3 O ye, beneath life's crushing load, Whose forms are bending low, Who toil along the climbing way With painful steps and slow, Look up, for glad and golden hours Come swiftly on the wing; O rest beside the weary road, And hear the angels sing! 4 For lo, the days are hastening on, By prophet bards foretold, When with the ever-circling years, Comes round the age of gold; When peace shall over all the earth Its final splendors fling, And the whole world send back the song Which now the angels sing!

Refrain: Nowell, Nowell, Nowell, Nowell, Born is the King of Israel! 2 They lookèd 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. [Refrain] 3 And by the light of that same star Three Wise Men came from country afar; To seek for a king was their intent, And to follow the star wherever it went. [Refrain] 4 This star drew nigh to the northwest, O'er Bethlehem it took its rest, And there it did both stop and stay Right over the place where Jesus lay. [Refrain] 5 Then entered in those Wise Men three; Full reverently upon their knee, And offered there, in his presence, Their gold and myrrh and frankincense.
