  5. HARK! THE HERALD ANGELS SING"Glory to the newborn King!Peace on earth, and mercy mild,God and sinners reconciled!"Joyful, all ye nations rise,Join the triumph of the skies,With the angelic host proclaim:"Christ is born in Bethlehem."Hark! the herald angels sing,"Glory to the newborn King!"

  6. Christ, by highest heav’n adored,Christ, the everlasting Lord,Late in time behold him come,Offspring of a virgin's womb.Veiled in flesh the Godhead see!Hail the incarnate deity!Pleased as man with us to dwell,Jesus, our EmmanuelHark! the herald angels sing,"Glory to the newborn King!"

  7. Hail the heav'n-born Prince of PeaceHail the Son of Righteousness!Light and life to all he brings,Ris'n with healing in his wingsMild, he lays his glory by,Born that we no more may die;Born to raise us from the earth;Born to give us second birth,Hark! the herald angels sing,"Glory to the newborn King!"

  8. O LITTLE TOWN OF BETHLEHEM,How still we see thee lie, Above thy deep and dreamless sleepThe silent stars go by.Yet in thy dark streets shinethThe everlasting light The hopes and fears of all the yearsAre met in thee tonight.

  9. 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 men on earth!

  10. How silently, how silentlyThe wondrous gift is given!So God imparts to human heartsThe blessings of his heaven.No ear may hear his coming,But in this world of sin,Where meek souls will receive him, stillThe dear Christ enters in.

  11. O holy Child of Bethlehem,Descend to us, we pray;Cast out our sin, and enter in;Be born to us today.We hear the Christmas angelsThe great glad tidings tell;O come to us, abide with usOur Lord Emmanuel!

  12. VISIT OF THE ANGEL Luke 1 v. 26-38, read by Josie Hutchinson (Down to Earth programme)

  13. THE FIRST NOWELL 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. Nowell, nowell, nowell, nowell, Born is the King of Israel!

  14. They lookèd up and saw a star Shine in the east, beyond them far, And to the earth it gave great light And so it continued both day and night. Nowell, nowell, nowell, nowell, Born is the King of Israel!

  15. This star drew nigh to the north-west; Over Bethlehem it took its rest, And there it did both stop and stay Right over the place where Jesus lay. Nowell, nowell, nowell, nowell, Born is the King of Israel!

  16. Then let us all with one accord Sing praises to our heavenly Lord, That hath made heaven and earth of nought, And with His blood mankind hath bought. Nowell, nowell, nowell, nowell, Born is the King of Israel!

  17. THE SUSSEX CAROL On Christmas night all Christians sing, To hear the news the angels bring, News of great joy, news of great mirth, News of our merciful King’s birth.

  18. Then why should men on earth be so sad, Since our redeemer made us glad, When from our sin he set us free, All for to gain our liberty?

  19. When sin departs before his grace Then life and health come in its place; Angels and men with joy may sing All for to see the new-born King

  20. All out of darkness we have light, Which made the angels sing this night: “Glory to God and peace to men, Now and for evermore. Amen.”

  21. JESUS IS BORN Luke 2 v. 1-7, read by Andrew Norman (Rockingham Castle, on lunchtime show)

  22. 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.

  23. The cattle are lowing, the baby awakes, But little Lord Jesus, no crying he makes: I love you, Lord Jesus! Look down from the sky And stay by my side until morning is nigh.

  24. Be near me, Lord Jesus: I ask you to stay Close by me for ever and love me, I pray; Bless all the dear children in your tender care, And fit us for heaven to live with you there.

  25. SHEPHERDS AND ANGELS Luke 2 v. 8-20 read by Gloria Jones (African-Caribbean shows)

  26. WHILE SHEPHERDS WATCHED their flocks by night, All seated on the ground, The angel of the Lord came down And glory shone around.

  27. “Fear not,” said he, for mighty dread Had seized their troubled mind; “Glad tidings of great joy I bring To you and all mankind.

  28. “To you in David’s town this day Is born of David’s line A Saviour, who is Christ the Lord, And this shall be the sign.

  29. “The heavenly babe you there shall find To human view displayed, All meanly wrapped in swaddling bands, And in a manger laid.”

  30. Thus spake the seraph; and forthwith Appeared a shining throng Of angels, praising God, who thus Addressed their joyful song:

  31. “All glory be to God on high And to the earth be peace; Goodwill henceforth from heaven to men Begin and never cease.”

  32. VISIT OF THE WISE MEN Matthew 2 v. 1-12 read by Carol Connolly (‘The Street’ reality soap)

  33. 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!

  34. Joy to the earth, the Saviour reigns; Your sweetest songs employ. While fields and streams and hills and plains Repeat the sounding joy, Repeat the sounding joy, Repeat, repeat, the sounding joy!

  35. He rules the world with truth and grace, And makes the nations prove The glories of his righteousness, The wonders of his love, The wonders of his love, The wonders, wonders, of his love.

  36. GOOD KING WENCESLAS LOOKED OUT On the Feast of Stephen, When the snow lay round about, Deep and crisp and even. Brightly shone the moon that night Though the frost was cruel, When a poor man came in sight, Gath’ring winter fuel.

  37. “Hither, page, and stand by me, If thou know’st it, telling Yonder peasant, who is he? Where and what his dwelling?” “Sire he lives a good league hence, Underneath the mountain, Right against the forest fence, By Saint Agnes’ fountain.”

  38. “Bring me flesh and bring me wine, Bring me pine logs hither: Thou and I will see him dine, When we bear them thither.” Page and monarch forth they went. Forth they went together; Through the rude wind’s wild lament And the bitter weather.

  39. In his master’s steps he trod, Where the snow lay dinted; Heat was in the very sod Which the Saint had printed. Therefore, Christian men, be sure, Wealth or rank possessing, Ye who now will bless the poor, Shall yourselves find blessing.

  40. ESCAPE TO EGYPT Matthew 2 v. 13-18 read by Bleddyn Jones (rugby commentator)

  41. WE THREE KINGS OF ORIENT ARE,Bearing gifts we traverse afar,Field and fountain, moor and mountain,Following yonder star.O star of wonder, star of night,Star with royal beauty bright,Westward leading, still proceeding,Guide us to thy perfect light.

  42. Born a king on Bethlehem plainGold I bring to crown him again.King forever, ceasing never,Over us all to reign.O star of wonder, star of night,Star with royal beauty bright,Westward leading, still proceedingGuide us to thy perfect light.

  43. Frankincense to offer have I;Incense owns a deity nigh.Prayer and praising, all men raising,Worship him, God most high.O star of wonder, star of night,Star with royal beauty bright,Westward leading, still proceedingGuide us to thy perfect light.

  44. Myrrh is mine, its bitter perfumeBreathes a life of gathering gloom;Sorrowing, sighing, bleeding, dying,Sealed in the stone-cold tomb.O star of wonder, star of night,Star with royal beauty bright,Westward leading, still proceedingGuide us to thy perfect light.

  45. Glorious now, behold him arise,King and God and sacrifice!Heaven sings Alleluia, Alleluia the earth replies.O star of wonder, star of night,Star with royal beauty bright,Westward leading, still proceedingGuide us to thy perfect light.

  46. CHRISTMAS THOUGHT Revd Richard Gamble, Chaplain to Leicester City Football Club

  47. 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.
