Christmas carol lyrics

The first Noel

The first Noel the angel did say
Was to certain poor shepards in fields as they lay:
In fields where they lay a keeping their sheep
On a cold winter’s night that was so deep.
Noel Noel Noel Noel
Born is the King of Israel.

They looked up and saw a star
Shining in the east beyond them far:
And to the earth it gave great light
And so it continued both day and night.
Noel Noel Noel Noel
Born is the King of Israel.

And by the light of that same star
Three wise men came from country far:
To seek for a king was their intent
And to follow the star wherever it went.
Noel Noel Noel Noel
Born is the King of Israel.

Away in a manger

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.

The cattle are lowing,
The poor baby awakes,
But little lord Jesus,
No crying he makes
I love thee, lord Jesus
Look down from the sky,
And stay by my cradle
 Til morning is nigh

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 take us to heaven,
To live with thee there

Hark the Herald Angels Sing

Hark the herald Angels sing
“Glory to the newborn King”
peace on earth and mercy mild
God and sinners reconciled”
Joyful, all you nations rise
join the triumph of the skies
with angelic hosts proclaim
“Christ is born in Bethlehem”
Hark the herald Angels sing
“Glory to the newborn King”

Christ by highest heaven adored
Christ the everlasting Lord
Late in time behold him come
Off spring of a Virgin’s womb
Veiled in flesh the God-Head see,
Hail Th’incarnate Deity
Pleased as man with man to dwell
Jesus our Emmanuel
Hark the Herald Angels sing
“Glory to the newborn King

Hail the Heaven born Prince of Peace!
Hail the sun of righteousness
Light and life to all he brings
Ris’n with healing in his wings
Mild 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.

Jingle Bells

Dashing through the snow
In a one-horse open sleigh
O’er the fields we go
Laughing all the way

Bells on bob tail ring
Making spirits bright
What fun it is to ride and sing
A sleighing song tonight!

Jingle bells, jingle bells,
Jingle all the way.
Oh! what fun it is to ride
In a one-horse open sleigh.

Jingle bells, jingle bells,
Jingle all the way;
Oh! what fun it is to ride
In a one-horse open sleigh.

Now the ground is white
Go for it while you’re young
Take the girls tonight
Sing this sleighing song
Get a bobtailed bay
Two forty for his speed
And hitch him to an open sleigh
And you will take the lead.

Jingle bells, jingle bells,
Jingle all the way.
Oh! what fun it is to ride
In a one-horse open sleigh.

Jingle bells, jingle bells,
Jingle all the way;
Oh! what fun it is to ride
In a one-horse open sleigh.

Joy to the World

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.

Joy to the Earth, the Savior reigns!
Let men their songs employ;
While fields and floods, rocks, hills and plains
Repeat the sounding joy,
Repeat the sounding joy,
Repeat, repeat, the sounding joy.

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.
