Hark! the Herald Angels Sing

MENDELSSOHN

1. 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 angelic hosts proclaim:

“Christ is born in Bethlehem!”

Refrain

Hark! the herald angels sing,

“Glory to the newborn King.”

2. 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 th’incarnate Deity!

Pleased as man with us to dwell;

Jesus, our Emmanuel!

3. Hail the heav’n-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.

Text: 77 77 D with refrain; Charles Wesley, 1707–1788, alt.

Music: Felix Mendelssohn, 1809–1847; adapt. by William H. Cummings, 1831–1915.

Born This Day

Ken Canedo

1. The people who wandered in darkness

have seen a marvelous light.

And on those who lived

too long in the shadows,

a great light shines.

Refrain

There is a child born this day,

a son who will lead us

to greatness and glory.

He shall be Wonderful Counselor,

powerful God,

always faithful Father, Prince of Peace.

2. The burden that weighed on our shoulders

is lifted on this wonderful day.

God has granted us abundant rejoicing

that knows no end. (to Refrain & Verse 1)

Final Refrain

There is a child born this day,

a son who will lead us

to greatness and glory.

He shall be Wonderful Counselor,

powerful God,

always faithful Father,

Prince of Peace.

He is the Prince of Peace.

Away in a Manger

MUELLER

1. Away in a manger, no crib for a bed,

The little Lord Jesus laid down his sweet head;

The stars in the sky looked down where he lay,

The little Lord Jesus, asleep on the hay.

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 cradle till morning is nigh.

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.

Text: 11 11 11 11; verses 1–2, Little Children’s Book for Schools and Families, ca. 1885; verse 3, John T. McFarland, 1851–1913; Gabriel’s Vineyard Songs, 1892, alt. Music: Attr. to James R. Murray, 1841–1905.

Infant Holy, Infant Lowly

W ZLOBIE LEZY

1. Infant holy, infant lowly,

For his bed a cattle stall;

Oxen lowing, little knowing

Christ the babe is Lord of all.

Swift are winging, angels singing,

Noels ringing, tidings bringing:

Christ the babe is Lord of all.

2. Flocks were sleeping, shepherds keeping

Vigil till the morning new.

Saw the glory, heard the story,

Tidings of a gospel true.

Thus rejoicing, free from sorrow,

Praises voicing greet the morrow:

Christ the babe was born for you.

3. As we journey to the stable

Like the wise men long ago,

We are hoping to discover

What these pilgrims came to know.

All are welcome at this manger,

King and shepherd, friend and stranger.

Christ the babe is Lord of all.

4. Wake our spirits from their slumber;

Send the darkness on its way.

Fill our hearts with joy and wonder

On this blessed Christmas day.

Songs of angels all around us;

Grace and blessing now surround us.

Christ be with us as we go.

Text: 87 87 88 77. Verses 1 and 2, Polish carol; tr. by Edith M. Reed, 1885–1933; verses 3 and 4 © 2004, Daniel L. Schutte. Published by OCP. All rights reserved. Music: Polish carol.

He Shall Reign Forevermore

Verse 1

In the bleak mid-winter

All creation groans

For a world in darkness

Frozen like a stone

Light is breaking

In a stable for a throne

Chorus

(And) He shall reign forevermore forevermore

And He shall reign forevermore forevermore

Unto us a Child is born

The King of kings and Lord of lords

And He shall reign forevermore forevermore

Verse 2

If I were a wise man

I would travel far

If I were a shepherd

I would do my part

But poor as I am

I will give to Him my heart

Bridge

Here within a manger lies the One

Who made the starry skies

This baby born for sacrifice

Christ the Messiah

Into our hopes into our fears

The Savior of the world appears

The promise of eternal years

Christ the Messiah

Chris Tomlin, Matt Maher

MISA EN ESPAÑOL

El Tamborilero

El camino que lleva a Belén
Baja hasta el valle que la nieve cubrió
Los pastorcillos quieren ver a su rey
Le traen regalos en su humilde zurrón
Ropoponpon, ropoponpon
Ha nacido en un portal de Belén
El niño Dios

Yo quisiera poner a tus pies
Algún presente que te agrade, Señor
Mas tú ya sabes que soy pobre también
Y no poseo más que un viejo tambor
Ropoponpon, ropoponponpon
En tu honor frente al portal tocaré
Con mi tambor

El camino que lleva a Belén
Yo voy marcando con mi viejo tambor
Nada mejor hay que te pueda ofrecer
Su ronco acento es un canto de amor
Ropoponpon, ropoponpon
Cuando Dios me vio tocando ante él
Me sonrió

Rey de Reyes

-COMUNIÓN-

Estrofa 1

En la oscuridad estaba

Toda la humanidad

Hasta que desde los cielos

Nos viniste a rescatar

A través de una virgen

Elegiste tú nacer

Y del trono descendiste

A un pesebre siendo Rey

Coro

Gloria al Padre

Nuestro Dios

Gloria al Hijo

El Salvador

Gloria al Santo Espíritu

Rey de reyes nadie hay como tú

Estrofa 2

Para revelar tu Reino

Y alcanzar al pecador

A la cruz no te negaste

Para darnos salvación

Aun en tu sufrimiento

Tú veías más allá

No pensaste en el precio

Te entregaste en mi lugar

Estrofa 3

Al tercer amanecer

Todo el cielo resonó

Pues la muerte para siempre

El Cordero conquistó

Y la tumba se abrió

Y vacía ahora está

Todas las generaciones

Esperanza encontrarán

Estrofa 4

Y la Iglesia comenzó

Por su Espíritu nació

Buenas Nuevas por los siglos

Para toda la creación

Por su sangre y por su nombre

Libres somos por la fe

Jesucristo ha vencido

Nos resucitó con Él

Preparen el Camino

-SALIDA-

Estribillo

Preparen el camino del Señor.

Preparen el camino del Señor.

1. Juan proclama en el desierto;

ya se oye su pregón,

“Cambien todos hoy sus vidas

que ya viene el Salvador”.

2. Voz de Juan que clama fuerte,

“Vengan a pedir perdón,

dejen todos sus pecados

y reciban al Señor”.

3. Renunciemos las envidias,

odios, celos y rencor.

Perdonemos al hermano

como Dios nos da el perdón.

4. Hay que construir, el reino

de justicia, paz y amor,

construyendo un mundo nuevo

mientras vuelva el Redentor.
