I r il 0 IIOLY NIGHT S1ILVER BELLS 0 holy night! The stars are brightly shining, It is the night of the dear saviour's birth! Long lay the word in sin and error pining, Tii He appear'd, and the soul feit its worth. A thrill of hope, the weary world rejoices, For yonder breaks a new and giorious morn; Fail on your knees! 0 hear the angel voices! 0, night divine! O night when Christ was born; 0, night divine! O, night, O, night divine! Led by the light of faith serenely beaming, With glowing hearts by His cradie we stand. So, led by light of a star - sweetly gleamning, Here came the wise -men frorn the Orient land. The King of ings lay thus in lowly manger, I ail our triais born to be our fiend; He knows our needs, to our weaknesses no stranger; Behoid, your King! Before Hlm iowly bend! Behold your King, your King, before HlEm bend! Truly He taught us to love one another; I-is law is love and lis gospel is Peace. Chains shall He break, for the slave is our brother, And in His name ail oppression shahl cease. Sweet hymns of joy in grateful chorus raise we; Let ail within us praise His holy name! Christ is the Lord! Then ever praise we! His pow'?r and glory ever-more proclaim! Elis pow'r and glory ever-more proclaim! IEBIE COMES SANTA CLAUS Here cornes Santa Claus, Here cornes Santa Claus, riglit down Santa Claus Lane. Vixen and Blitzen and ail his reindeer, Are pulling on' the rein. Beils are ringing, children singing, Ail is merry and briglit. Hang your stockings and say your prayers, 'Cause Santa Claus cornes tonight. WINTER WONDERLAND Sleigh belîs ring, are you list'nin? In the lane, snow is glist'nin. A beautiful sight, we're happy tonight Walkin' in a winter wionderland! Gone away is the bluebird, here to stay is a new bird. Hie sings a love song as we go along, Wa1kin' in a winter wonderland. In the meadow we can build a snowman, Then pretend that he is Parson Brown Hell say "are you rnarried?" well say "no mani!" But you can do the job when you're in town. Later on - we'll conspire as we dream by the fire, To face unafraid the plans that we made Walkin' in a Winter Wonderiand! City sidewalks, busy sidewalks, Dressed in holiday style; In the air there's a feeling of Christrnas Cidldren laughing, people passing, Meeting srnile after srnile And on every street corner, you hear Silver belis, silver belis, It's Christrnas time in the city; Ring-a-ling, hear theni ring. Soon it will be Christrnaà Day. Strings of tree lights, even stop lights, Blink a bright red and green; As the shoppers rush home with the treasures, Hear the snow crunch, see the kids bunch. This is Santa's big scene, And above ail the bustie, you hear HIARK THE IIERALDANGELS SING Hark! the herald angels sing, "Glory to the new-born King! Peace on earth, and mercy mild, God and sinners reconciled." Joyful, ail ye nations rise, Join the triumph of the skies; With th'angelic host proclaim, "Christ is born in Bethlehem". Hark the herald angels sing, "Glory to the new-born King!" Christ, by highest hea'vn adored; Christ the everlasting Lord; Late in time behold him corne, Offspring of the favored one. Veiled in flesh, the God-head see; Hail th'incarnate Deity Pleased, as man with men to dwell, Jesus, our Immanuel! Hark the herald angels sing, "Glory to the new-born King!" Hail! the heav'n boni Prince of Peace! Hall! the Son of Righteousness! Light and life to ail he brings, Ris'n with healing in Hfis wings. Mild He lays Ris glory by, Born that man no more may die: Born to raise the sons of earth, Born to give thern second birth. Hark the herald angels sing, "Glory to the new-born King!" -16-
