When Christ was born of Mary free

When Christ was born of Mary free
Saw you never, in the twilight
Author: Cecil Frances Alexander Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 85 hymnals Topics: Carols Lyrics:
Saw you never, in the twilight,
When the sun had left the skies,
Up in heaven the clear stars shining
Through the gloom, like silver eyes?
So of old the wise men, watching,
Saw a little stranger star,
And they knew the King was given,
And they followed it from far.
Heard you never of the story
How they crossed the desert wild,
Journeyed on by plain and mountain
Till they found the holy Child?
515
How they opened all their treasure,
Kneeling to that infant King;
Gave the gold and fragrant incense,
Gave the myrrh in offering?
Know ye not that lowly baby
Was the bright and morning Star?
He who came to light the Gentiles,
And the darkened isles afar?
And we, too, may seek his cradle;
There our hearts' best treasures bring;
Love, and faith, and true devotion
For our Savior, God, and King.

Sing Forth With Gladsome Voice
Author: Paul E. Kretzmann Meter: 6.6.7.6.7.6.5 Appears in 3 hymnals Topics: Carols and Spiritual Songs Christmas Lyrics: 1 Sing forth with gladsome voice,
With grateful hearts rejoice:
All the world's salvation
Sleeps in a manger-bed,
The hope of ev'ry nation
Laid there His royal head:
Great eternal God!
Great eternal God!
2 O Son of God on high,
For Thee my heart doth sigh;
Fill with consolation
The soul that needs Thy love;
And teach me Thy salvation:
With mercy from above
Draw my heart to Thee!
Draw my heart to Thee!
3 Tho' we were lost in guilt,
His word He has fulfilled;
Destined for perdition
We lay beneath His wrath;
But His great love's compassion
Has opened heaven's path:
There we are at home.
There we are at home.
4 Where is the home of bliss?
It can be only this:
Where the saints are singing
In hymns of loud acclaim,
And their hosannas bringing
All glory to His name:
There we are at home!
There we are at home! Used With Tune: KLUG Text Sources: 15th Century

A Babe Is Born In Bethlehem
Author: J. C. Aaberg; N. F. S. Grundtvig Meter: 8.3.8.8 Appears in 8 hymnals Topics: Carols and Spiritual Songs Christmas Lyrics: 1 A Babe is born in Bethlehem,
Bethlehem,
Rejoice, rejoice, Jerusalem;
Hallelujah, hallelujah.
2 A lowly virgin gave Him birth,
Gave Him birth,
Who rules the heavens and the earth;
Hallelujah, hallelujah.
3 He in a simple manger lay,
Manger lay,
Whom angels praise with joy for aye;
Hallelujah, hallelujah.
4 And wise men from the East did bring,
East did bring,
Gold, myrrh and incense to the King;
Hallelujah, hallelujah.
5 Now all our fears have passed away,
Passed away,
The Savior blest was born today;
Hallelujah, hallelujah.
6 God's blessed children we became,
We became,
And shall in heaven praise His name;
Hallelujah, hallelujah.
7 Then like the angels we shall be,
We shall be,
God's holy presence we shall see;
Hallelujah, hallelujah.
8 The angels there with great delight,
Great delight,
Will teach the song they sang this night,
Hallelujah, hallelujah.
9 With gladsome praises we adore,
We adore,
Our Lord and Savior evermore;
Hallelujah, hallelujah. Used With Tune: NATIVITY Text Sources: Latin
