A Song Was Heard at Christmas

Author: Timothy Dudley-Smith, b. 1926 Hymnal: One Lord, One Faith, One Baptism #280 (2018) Meter: 7.6.8.6 D Topics: The Celebration of the Gospel Story Christmas; Christian Year Christmas Lyrics: 1 A song was heard at Christmas To wake the midnight sky: A Savior's birth, and peace on earth, And praise to God on high. The angels sang at Christmas With all the hosts above, And still we sing the newborn King, His glory and His love. 2 A star was seen at Christmas, A herald and a sign, That all might know the way to go To find the child divine. The wise men watched at Christmas In some far eastern land, And still the wise in starry skies Discern their Maker's hand. 3 A tree was grown at Christmas, A sapling green and young; No tinsel bright with candlelight Upon its branches hung. But He who came at Christmas Our sins and sorrow bore, And still we name His tree of shame Our life for evermore. 4 A child was born at Christmas When Christmas first began; The Lord of all a baby small, The Son of God made man. For love is ours at Christmas, And life and light restored, And so we praise through endless days The Savior, Christ the Lord. Languages: English Tune Title: ANDUJAR

On Christmas Eve We Celebrate

Author: Mary Nelson Keithahn Hymnal: The Song Lingers On #19 (2003) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Topics: Christian Life Ministry for a "Blue" Christmas; Church Year-Christmas "Blue" Christmas Lyrics: On Christmas Eve we celebrate,with friends throughout the earth,the night when angels and a starannounced the Saviorâ€™s birth,when shepherds heard the angel-songsand wise men scanned the skies,and mother Mary rocked her childto hush his tiny cries.We tell these stories once againbeside a Christmas tree,and light a candle for the childon his Nativity.We sing the splendid angel-songs,and ring a Christmas bell;shout â€œMerry Christmasâ€ to our friendsand wish our neighbors well.But, always there are some who findno reason to rejoice.They mourn, and wait in vain to heara loved oneâ€™s long-lost voice.The angel-songs and twinkling lightsremind them of their loss;for them the shiny Christmas treebecomes a barren cross.Still others do not celebratebecause they are alone,by choice or by necessityaway from friends and home.They worry that there is no roomfor lonely folk this night;they long to hear the angel-songsand see the starâ€™s love-light.Incarnate God, make us your handsto wipe away sad tears,your arms to welcome those in need,to calm their anxious fears;your voice to whisper angel-songs,your smile to light their way,until a lonely Christmas Evebecomes glad Christmas Day.
