And stay by my cradle till morning is nigh. Scripture: Luke 2:7 Used With Tune: CRADLE SONG

Lo, how a Rose e'er blooming
Author: Theodore Baker Appears in 101 hymnals Topics: Story of Jesus Lyrics: 1 Lo, how a Rose e'er blooming
From tender stem has sprung!
Of Jesse's lineage coming
As men of old have sung.
It came, a floweret bright,
Amid the cold of winter,
When half-spent was the night.
2 Isaiah did foretell it,
The Rose I have in mind.
With Mary we behold it,
The virgin mother kind.
To show God's love aright
She bore to us a Savior,
When half-spent was the night.
Scripture: Isaiah 11:1-2 Used With Tune: EST IST EIN ROS' ENTSPRUNGEN Text Sources: 15th century German
Lo, how a Rose e'er blooming
It Came Upon the Midnight Clear
Author: Edmund H. Sears Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 870 hymnals Topics: Story of Jesus Lyrics: 1 It came upon the midnight clear,
That glorious song of old,
From angels bending near the earth,
To touch their harps of gold:
"Peace on the earth, good will to men,
From heaven's all gracious King."
The world in solemn stillness lay,
To hear the angels sing!
2 Still through the cloven skies they come,
With peaceful wings unfurled,
And still their heavenly music floats
Over all the weary world:
Above its sad and lowly plains
They bend on hovering wing,
And ever over its Babel sounds
The blessed angels sing!
3 And ye, beneath life's crushing load,
Whose forms are bending low,
Who toil along the climbing way
With painful steps and slow,
Look now! for glad and golden hours
Come swiftly on the wing:
O rest beside the weary road,
And hear the angels sing!
4 For lo, the days are hastening on,
By prophet bards foretold,
When with the ever circling years
Comes round the age of gold;
When peace shall over all the earth
Its ancient splendors fling,
And the whole world send back the song
Which now the angels sing!
Used With Tune: CAROL Text Sources: Christian Register, 1849

There's a Song in the Air!
Author: Josiah G. Holland Appears in 202 hymnals Topics: Story of Jesus Lyrics: 1 There's a song in the air!
There's a star in the sky!
There's a mother's deep prayer,
And a baby's low cry!
And the star rains its fire while the beautiful sing,
For the manger of Bethlehem cradles a King!
2 There's a tumult of joy
Over the wonderful birth.
For the virgin's sweet boy
Is the Lord of the earth.
Ay! The star rains its fire while the beautiful sing,
For the manger of Bethlehem cradles a King!
3 In the light of that star
Lie the ages impearled;
And that song from afar
Has swept over the world.
Every hearth is aflame, and the beautiful sing
In the homes of the nations that Jesus is King!
4 We rejoice in the light,
And we echo the song
That comes down through the night
From the heavenly throng.
Ay! We shout to the lovely evangel they bring,
And we greet in his cradle our Savior and King! Used With Tune: CHRISTMAS SONG
There's a Song in the Air!
