8 Walking in the Air Silent Night

We're walking in the air Silent night, holy night! We're floating in the moonlit sky All is calm, all is bright. The people far below are sleeping as we Round yon Virgin, Mother and Child. fly Holy infant so tender and mild, I'm holding very tight Sleep in heavenly peace, I'm riding in the midnight blue Sleep in heavenly peace I'm finding I can fly so high above with Silent night, holy night! you Shepherds quake at the sight. Far across the world Glories stream from heaven afar The villages go by like dreams Heavenly hosts sing Alleluia, The rivers and the hills, the forests and Christ the Savior is born! the streams Christ the Savior is born Children gaze open mouthed Silent night, holy night! Taken by surprise Son of God love's pure light. Nobody down below believes their eyes Radiant beams from Thy holy face With dawn of redeeming grace, We're surfing in the air Jesus Lord, at Thy birth We're swimming in the frozen sky Jesus Lord, at Thy birth We're drifting over icy mountains floating by Suddenly swooping low On an ocean deep Rousing up a mighty monster from his sleep And walking in the air We're dancing in the midnight sky And everyone who sees us greets us as we fly We're walking in the air We're walking in the air

9 Hark! the Herald Angels In the Bleak Midwinter Sing In the bleak midwinter Hark! the herald angels sing Frosty wind made moan Glory to the new-born King! Earth stood hard as iron Peace on earth and mercy mild Water like a stone God and sinners reconciled! Snow had Joyful, all ye nations, rise Snow on snow on snow Join the triumph of the skies In the bleak midwinter With the angelic host proclaim Long, long ago Christ is born in Bethlehem! Angels and Arc Angels Hark! the herald angels sing May have traveled there Glory to the new-born King! Cherubim and Seraphim Christ, by highest heaven adored Thronged the air Christ, the everlasting Lord But only his Mother Late in time behold him come In her maiden bliss Offspring of the Virgin's womb Worshiped the beloved Veiled in flesh the Godhead see With a kiss Hail the incarnate Deity What can I give him? Pleased as man with man to dwell Poor as I am Jesus, our Emmanuel! If I were a shepherd Mild he lays his glory by I would give a lamb Born that man no more may die If I were a wise man Born to raise the sons of earth I would do my part Born to give them second birth But what I can I give him Risen with healing in his wings Give him my heart Light and life to all he brings Give him my heart Hail, the Sun of Righteousness! Hail, the heaven-born Prince of Peace! Hail the Heaven-born Prince of Peace Hail the Son of Righteousness Light and life to all He brings Risen with healing in His wings Mild He lay His glory by Born that man no more may die Come Desire of Nations come Fix in us thy humble home Rise, the woman's conquering Seed Bruise in us the serpent's head Adam's likeness now efface Stamp thine image in its place

10 O Little Town of Bethlehem

O little town of Bethlehem So God imparts to human hearts How still we see thee lie The blessings of His heaven Above thy deep and dreamless sleep No ear may hear His coming The silent stars go by But in this world of sin Yet in thy dark streets shineth Where meek souls will receive him still The everlasting Light The dear Christ enters in The hopes and fears of all the years O holy Child of Bethlehem Are met in thee tonight Descend to us, we pray For Christ is born of Mary Cast out our sin and enter in And gathered all above Be born to us today While mortals sleep, the angels keep We hear the Christmas angels Their watch of wondering love The great glad tidings tell O morning stars together O come to us, abide with us Proclaim the holy birth Our Lord Emmanuel And praises sing to God the King O come to us, abide with us And Peace to men on earth Our Lord Emmanuel How silently, how silently The wondrous gift is given
