240bAway in a manger
241Calm on the listening ear of night
242It came upon the midnight clear
243While shepherds watched their flocks by night
244O little town of Bethlehem
245aSion, the marvelous story be telling
245bAngels from the realms of glory
246Brightest and best of the sons of the morning
247Of the Father's love begotten
248From the eastern mountains
249How bright appears the Morning Star
250There's a song in the air!
251aSleep, my little Jesus
251bI heard the bells on Christmas day
252Saw you never, in the twilight
253Once in royal David's city
254aHark! what mean those holy voices
254bGood Christian men, rejoice
255Like silver lamps in a distant shrine
256Joy fills our inmost hearts today!
257The first Nowell the angel did say
258When Christ was born of Mary free
259Crown him with many crowns
260O sacred head surrounded
261'Tis midnight, and on Olive's brow
262aGo to dark Gethsemane
262bRide on, ride on in majesty
263All glory, laud, and honor
264The strife is o'er, the battle done
265aChrist, the Lord, is risen today
265bJesus Christ is risen today
266The day of resurrection
267Come, ye faithful, raise the strain
268aLo! he comes with clouds descending
268bLook ye saints the sight is glorious
269O sons and daughters, let us sing!
270On wings of living light
271God hath sent his angels to the earth again
272aAngels, roll the rock away
272bWelcome, happy morning! age to age shall say
273Rise, glorious Conqueror, rise
274aBrightly beams our Father's mercy
274bTruehearted, wholehearted, faithful and loyal
275Lord, speak to me, that I may speak
276aO Master, let me walk with thee
276bWhen the Lord of love was here
277Thine arm, O Lord, in days of old
278City of God, how broad and far
279Blest be the tie that binds
280O God, our help in ages past
281aFling out the banner! let it float
281bThese things shall be—a loftier race
282Hail to the brightness of Zion's glad morning
283From Greenland's icy mountains
284Hail to the Lord's Anointed
285Men whose boast it is that ye
286One holy Church of God appears
287aO brother man, fold to thy heart thy brother
287bThy grace impart! in time to be
288aWe are living, we are dwelling
288bA thousand years have come and gone
289aAngel of peace, thou hast wandered too long
289bWhen wilt thou save the people?
290Rise, crowned with light, imperial Salem, rise!
291aO God of love, O King of peace
291bGod the All-terrible! King, who ordainest
293O beautiful for spacious skies
294aO God, beneath thy guiding hand
294bGod of our fathers, known of old
295Once to every man and nation
296O Lord of hosts! Almighty King!
297O God, the Strength of those who war
298aO beautiful, my country!
298bLord, while for all mankind we pray
299aGod of our fathers, whose almighty hand
299bO God of Bethel, by whose hand
300My country, 'tis of thee
301The morning light is breaking
302aGod bless our native land
302bMine eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the Lord
303O say can you see, by the dawn's early light
