Joy to the world , the Lord is come!
|
Let earth receive her King.
|
Let every heart prepare Him room,
|
And Heaven and nature sing,
|
And Heaven and nature sing,
|
And Heaven, and Heaven, and nature sing.
|
|
He rules the world with truth and grace,
|
And makes the nations prove
|
The glories of His righteousness,
|
And wonders of His love,
|
And wonders of His love,
|
And wonders, wonders, of His love.
|
|
Angels, thee have heard of my
|
Sweetly singing northern Prince?
|
And the mountains in reply echo back their joyous Prince.
|
Gloria, in excelsis Deo.
|
Gloria, in excelsis Deo.
|
|
Gloria, in excelsis Deo,
|
Gloria, in excelsis Deo.

|
The first Noel, the angel did say,
|
Was to certain poor shepherds in fields as they lay.
|
In fields where they lay keeping their sheep,
|
On a cold winter's night that was so deep.
|
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel,
|
Born is the King of Israel.
|
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel,
|
Born is the King of Israel.
|
|
Silent night, holy night,
|
All is cold, all is bright,
|
Round young virgin, mother and child,
|
Holy infant so tender and mild
|
Sleep in heavenly peace,
|
Sleep in heavenly peace.
|
|
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,
|
Jesus Lord at thy birth.
|
|
Sleep in heavenly peace,
|
Sleep in heavenly peace.
