Oh for Joy 03:13
Long have we waited, Long have we waited, long have we waited for you Creation is groaning for love’s great atoning is due By thy great mercy, by thy great mercy, by thy great mercy you give Hope for all children, mercy and new life to live Oh, oh for joy That Jesus is born Come and see him  Come and receive him This blessed, holy morn The earth in stillness, the earth in stillness, the earth in stillness and peace The night calm and bright and so our strivings cease We thank you for rescue, thank you for rescue thank you for rescue through Grace  The law fully met, he has secured our place Arise, arise the dawn has come The dark drowned out because of love

Hark! A thrilling voice is sounding!  "Christ is near," we hear it say.  "Cast away the works of darkness,  All you children of the day!" Startled at the solemn warning,  Let the earthbound soul arise;  Christ, its sun, all sloth dispelling,  Shines upon the morning skies. See, the Lamb, so long expected,  See the everlasting light Full of grace the Lord is with us We will hope in Him tonight So, when next he comes in glory  And the world is wrapped in fear,  He will shield us with his mercy  And with words of love draw near. Honor, glory, might, dominion To the Father and the Son With the everliving Spirit While eternal ages run!

New Song 04:16
Hope came down from above Full of grace, full of love He came to save, to right all the wrong It’s time we sing a new song All sinners to rejoice Lift your hands, lift your voice He came to dwell, to make us belong It’s time we sing a new song It’s time we sing a new song Christ has come, Christ has come Ring those bells, beat that drum Joy to the world, his plan all along It’s time we sing a new song It’s time we sing a new song Perfect peace he did bring Our true and lowly king He gave his life, the weak become strong It’s time we sing a new song It’s time we sing a new song

Immanuel 05:22
Oh love that brings us to our knees With grace that brings eternal peace The Son of man did condescend With healing hands this world to mend For stain and filth is our torment But beautiful is His advent The lowly babe for mortals’ sake Will satisfy creation’s ache Immanuel, the hope our hearts have waited for, have waited for The Prince of Peace, the Savior King, forevermore, forevermore The light into the darkness shine An eastern star displays the sign A manger seats the human form Of God who by His grace was born So sing until your lungs are spent Concede your will to joy’s consent  His birth will end our earthly strife His death will bring the saints to life The angels sing, the Lord has come Our voices ring, the Lord has come
5.
The light shines forth on Christmas day His birth reveals the final say The curse restrained and darkness bound Rejoice in Christ our life is found Rejoice in Christ our life is found
