Angels
from the realms of glory,
Telling of the Christmas story.

Bethlehem beckons with joyful accord;
Come hither, come see, and worship the Lord.

Christ was born on Christmas Day,
Asleep in a manger, a bed of hay.

Divine and holy is Thy birth;
Wing Your flight o'er all the earth.

Everlasting Father, and Father of us all,
Look with mercy and love on us all.

"Fear not," said the angel, one night, long ago.
"I bring you good tidings, for this I know."

"Glory to the Son," we sing,
"Christ, our Prophet, Priest and King."

Heavenly hosts, their watch are keeping,
Precious child so sweetly sleeping.

Immanuel, we sing They praise,
Thou Prince of Life, Thou Fount of Grace.

Joy to the world, the Lord is come,
Born in a manger, God's only son.

King of Kings, prophets foretold,
Now all men His love behold.

Love is a gift He gives to all,
To each of us, both great and small.

Messiah and Savior -- for this He caem --
Live in our hearts and there remain.

Night so holy, silent and still.
Proclaiming joy, peace and good will.

Odors of Edom and offerings divine,
Myrrh from the forest and gold from the mine.

Peace on earth, good will from heaven,
Souls redeemed and sins forgiven.

Quietly He came to earth
To give us all a second birth.

Rejoice, give thanks and loudly sing,
Glory to the new-born King.

Shepherds watched their flocks by night
While Wise Men followed the heavenly light.

Tidings of great joy I bring;
Good news from heaven the angels sing.

Unto us a child is born
On this happy Christmas Morn.

Virgin-born, Immanuel,
Let every tongue Thy praises tell.

Wise Men from the East, they came
To worship and praise His holy name.

X is for Christ when in Greek it is read;
A Savior, the Lord, so the angel said.

Yonder shines brightly the heavenly star
Showing the way to those from afar.

Zeal was bestowed on God's only Son
From His childhood years till His work was done.
