Infant Holy, Infant Lowly

Author: Edith M. G. Reed Hymnal: VU1996 #58 (1996) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7.7 Lyrics: 1 Infant holy, infant lowly, for his bed a cattle-stall; oxen lowing, little knowing Christ the babe is Lord of all. Swift are winging angels singing, noels ringing, tidings bringing: Christ the babe is Lord for all, Christ the babe is Lord for all. 2 Flocks were sleeping, shepherds keeping vigil till the morning new saw the glory, heard the story, tidings of a gospel true. Thus rejoicing, free from sorrow, praises voicing, greet the morrow: Christ the babe was born for you, Christ the babe was born for you.

Of the Father's Love Begotten

Author: John Mason Neale; Aurelius Clemens Prudentius Hymnal: VU1996 #61 (1996) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7.7.7 Lyrics: 1 Of the Father's love begotten, ere the worlds began to be, Christ is Alpha and Omega, Christ the source, the ending he, of the things that are and have been, and that future years shall see, evermore and evermore. 2 At his word the worlds were framed. He commanded, it was done: heaven and earth and depths of ocean in their threefold order one; all that grows beneath the shining of the moon and burning sun, evermore and evermore. 3 O that birth for ever blessèd! When the Virgin, full of grace, by the Holy Ghost conceiving, bare the Saviour of our race, and the babe, the world's redeemer, first revealed his sacred face, evermore and evermore. 4 This is he whom seers in old time chanted of with one accord, whom the voices of the prophets promised in their faithful word; now he shines, the long-expected; let creation praise its Lord, evermore and evermore. 5 O ye heights of heaven, adore him; angel hosts, his praises sing; powers, dominions, bow before him, and extol our God and King; let no tongue on earth be silent, every voice in concert ring, evermore and evermore. 6 Christ, to thee with God most blessèd, and, O Holy Ghost, to thee, hymn and chant and high thanksgiving, and unwearied praises be, honour, glory, and dominion and eternal victory, evermore and evermore.

Once in Royal David's City

Author: Cecil Frances Alexander Hymnal: VU1996 #62 (1996) Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7 Lyrics: 1 Once in royal David's city stood a lowly cattle-shed, where a mother laid her baby in a manger for his bed. Mary was that mother mild, Jesus Christ her little child. 2 He came down to earth from heaven, who, with God is over all, and his shelter was a stable, and his cradle was a stall. There among the poor and lowly lived on earth our Saviour holy. 3 For he is our lifelong pattern; daily, when on earth he grew; he was tempted, scorned, rejected, tears and smiles like us he knew. Thus he feels for all our sadness, and he shares in all our gladness. 4 And our eyes at last shall see him, through his own redeeming love; for that child who seemed so helpless is our Lord in heaven above; and he leads his children on to the place where he is gone.

O Little Town of Bethlehem

Author: Phillips Brooks Hymnal: VU1996 #64 (1996) Meter: 8.6.8.6.7.6.8.6 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 all on earth. 3 How silently, how silently, the wondrous gift is given! So God imparts to human hearts the blessed gift of 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 Emmanuel.

Les bergers sont instruits; confiants dans la voix des cieux, ils s'en vont adorer leur Dieu; et Jésus, en échange leur sourit radieux 3 Ô nuit d'amour! Sainte nuit! Dans l'étable, aucun bruit; sur la paille, est couché l'Enfant que la Vierge endort en chantant; il repose en ses langes son Jésus ravissant 4 Ô nuit d'espoir! Sainte nuit!
