GO TELL IT ON THE MOUNTAIN
CHORUS:
Go tell it on the mountain, over the hills, and ev’rywhere
Go, tell it on the mountain that Jesus Christ is born
VERSE 1:
While shepherds kept their watching, o’er silent flocks by night
behold, throughout the heavens, there shone a holy light
VERSE 2:
The shepherds feared and trembled when lo, above the earth
Rang out the angel chorus that hailed our Savior’s birth
VERSE 3:
Down in a lowly manger the humble Christ was born
and God sent us salvation that blessed Christmas morn
EMMANUEL (HALLOWED MANGER GROUND)
VERSE 1:
What hope we hold this starlit night: A King is born in Bethlehem
Our journey long, we seek the light, that leads to the hallowed manger ground
VERSE 2:
What fear we felt in the silent age, four hundred years can He be found?
But broken by a baby’s cry, rejoice in the hallowed manger ground
CHORUS 1:
Emmanuel, Emmanuel, God
incarnate, here to dwell
Emmanuel, Emmanuel, Praise His Name, Emma – nu – el
VERSE 3:
The Son of God here born to bleed, a crown of thorns would pierce His brow
And we beheld this offering exalted now the King of kings
Praise God for the hallowed manger ground
AWAY IN A MANGER
VERSE 1:
Away in a manger, no crib for a bed, the little Lord Jesus laid down His sweet head
The stars in the heavens looked down where He lay. The little Lord Jesus asleep on the hay
VERSE 2:
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
VERSE 3:
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 Thy tender care and fit us for heaven, to live with Thee there
GLORY BE TO CHRIST
VERSE 1:
Should nothing of our efforts stand. No legacy survive
Unless the Lord does raise the house in vain its builders strive
VERSE 2:
To you who boast tomorrow’s gain tell me what is your life
A mist that vanishes at dawn all glory be to Christ!
CHORUS:
All glory be to Christ our king! All glory be to Christ!
His rule and reign will ever sing, all glory be to Christ!
VERSE 3:
His will be done, His kingdom come on earth as is above
Who is Himself our daily bread praise Him the Lord of love
VERSE 4:
Let living water satisfy The thirsty without price
We’ll take a cup of kindness yet, all glory be to Christ!
CHORUS:
VERSE 5:
When on the day the great I Am
The faithful and the true
The Lamb who was for sinners slain
Is making all things new
VERSE 6:
Behold our God shall live with us and be our steadfast light
And we shall ere his people be. All glory be to Christ!
CHORUS:
