O little town of Bethlehem

Author: P. Brooks (1835-1893) Hymnal: Hymns for Today's Church (2nd ed.) #88b (1987) Topics: Christmas 1 The Incarnation Lyrics: 1 O little town of Bethlehem, how still we see you lie! Above your deep and dreamless sleep the silent stars go by: yet in your dark streets shining is everlasting light; the hopes and fears of all the years are met in you tonight. 2 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 all on earth. 3 How silently, how silently the wondrous gift is given! So God imparts to human hearts the blessings of his heaven: no ear may hear his coming, but in this world of sin, where meek souls will receive him — still the dear Christ enters in. 4 O holy child of Bethlehem, descend to us, we pray; cast out our sin and enter in, be born in us today! We hear the Christmas angels the great glad tidings tell — O come to us, abide with us, our Lord Emmanuel. Languages: English Tune Title: CHRISTMAS CAROL

In the Bleak Midwinter

Author: Christina Georgina Rossetti Hymnal: Voices United #55 (1996) Meter: Irregular Topics: Christmas 1 Year A First Line: In the bleak midwinter, frosty wind made moan Lyrics: 1 In the bleak midwinter, frosty wind made moan, earth stood hard as iron, water like a stone; snow had fallen, snow on snow, snow on snow, in the bleak midwinter, long ago. 2 Our God, heaven cannot hold him, nor earth sustain; heaven and earth shall flee away when he comes to reign: in the bleak midwinter a stable place sufficed the Lord God almighty, Jesus Christ. 3 Enough for him, whom cherubim worship night and day, a breast full of milk, and a manger full of hay. Enough for him, whom angels fall down before, the ox and ass and camel which adore. 4 What can I give him, poor as I am? If I were a shepherd, I would bring a lamb; if I were a wise man, I would do my part; yet what I can I give him -- give my heart. Languages: English Tune Title: CRANHAM
