page 6 page 7 Away In A Manger Away in a manger no crib for a bed The little lord jesus laid down his sweet head The stars in the bright sky looked down where he lay The little lord jesus asleep on the hay.
The cattle are lowing the baby awakes But little lord jesus no crying he makes. I love thee lord jesus; look down from the sky And stay by my side until morning is nigh.
page 7 Be near me lord jesus I ask thee to stay Close by me forever, and love me, I pray. Bless all the dear children in your tender care, And fit us for heaven, to live with thee there.

page 21 Viva la Vida I used to rule the world Seas would rise when I gave the word Now in the morning I sleep alone Sweep the streets I used to own
I used to roll the dice Feel the fear in my enemy’s eyes Listened as the crowd would sing Now the old king is dead long live the king
One minute I held the key Next the walls were closed on me And I discovered that my castles stand Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand page 22 I hear Jerusalem bells a-ringing Roman cavalry choirs are singing Be my mirror, my sword and shield My missionaries in a foreign field
For some reason I can’t explain Once you’d gone there was never Never an honest word And that was when I ruled the world
It was a wicked and wild wind Blew down the doors to let me in Shattered windows and the sound of drums People couldn’t believe what I’d be- come
page 23 Revolutionaries wait For my head on a silver plate Just a puppet on a lonely string Oh who would ever want to be king?
I hear Jerusalem bells a-ringing Roman cavalry choirs are singing Be my mirror, my sword and shield My missionaries in a foreign field
For some reason I can’t explain I know St Peter won’t call my name Never an honest word But that was when I ruled the world
Hear Jerusalem bells a-ringing Roman cavalry choirs are singing
page 24 Be my mirror, my sword and shield My missionaries in a foreign field For some reason I can’t explain I know St Peter won’t call my name
Never an honest word But that was when I ruled the world
