No Obvious Angels
Author: Shirley Erena Murray, 1931- Meter: Irregular Appears in 2 hymnals Scripture: Luke 2:8-20 First Line: No obvious angels sing through the night skies Lyrics: 1 No obvious angels sing through the night skies,
no thunderstruck shepherds tell out their surprise,
for Christmas comes into the here and the now
through star-sighted people,
the watchful and hopeful,
who wake us to see a new world.
2 Our angel potential is waiting to start!
The Spirit will teach us the song of the heart,
for Christmas comes into the here and the now
through peace-maker people,
the just and the gentle,
the stars who will light the new world.
3 Whoever will take it is given the role:
the fruitful, the faithful, the joyous of soul,
for Christmas comes into the here and the now
when we are the angels
who dream and deliver,
who rise and create this new world! Used With Tune: NEW WORLD CAROL

"Fear Not!" the Angel Said
Author: Carolyn Winfrey Gillette Meter: 6.6.8.6 D Appears in 2 hymnals Scripture: Luke 2:1-20 First Line: "Fear not!" the angel said, "God's joy is in the air! Lyrics: “Fear not!” the angel said, “God’s joy is in the air!
Now go to Bethlehem and see a newborn baby there.
A Savior, yet a child! So young, and yet the Lord!”
God’s grace astounds, God’s love surrounds this sinful, hurting world.
Fear not, you hungry child, you homeless refugee,
You battered woman, burdened down—God came to set you free.
For God’s own Son was poor; He cried and suffered, too.
God’s grace astounds; God’s love abounds for people just like you.
Fear not when questions come: “How can I know God’s way?”
“Do my possessions weigh me down?” “Can God change me today?”
For Jesus came to be true bread that satisfies;
And in his birth, God touched the earth; Christ saves, forgives, and guides.
Fear not, you church of Christ, distracted and distressed,
For long ago in troubled times, Christ came, and we were blest.
Our Prince of Peace is born—our light, our life, our song!
In him we see our unity; in him God makes us strong.
