When Christmas Morn Is Dawning
Author: C. W. Foss Hymnal: American Lutheran Hymnal #610 (1930) Meter: 7.6.7.6 Topics: Carols and Spiritual Songs Christmas Lyrics: 1 When Christmas morn is dawning
In faith I would repair
Unto the lowly manger;
My Savior lieth there;
Unto the lowly manger;
My Savior lieth there.
2 How kind, O loving Savior,
To come from heav'n above!
From sin and evil save us,
And keep us in Thy love;
From sin and evil save us,
And keep us in Thy love.
3 We need thee, blessed Jesus,
Our dearest friend Thou art;
Forbid that we by sinning
Should grieve Thy loving heart;
Forbid that we by sinning
Should grieve Thy loving heart.
Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: CHRISTMAS DAWN

O Have You Heard The Wondrous Story
Author: F. W. Herzberger Hymnal: American Lutheran Hymnal #611 (1930) Meter: 9.8.9.8.9.8.9.8.9.10.10 Topics: Carols and Spiritual Songs Christmas Lyrics: 1 O have you heard the wondrous story,
And have you learned the news so blest?
The King of kings and Lord of glory
From heav'n descends to be our guest!
Behold in Bethlehem a mother
Beside her newborn Babe recline,
A little child like any other,
So human and yet all divine.
2 God's very Son comes down from heav'n
In man's poor flesh and blood to dwell,
A Savior by the Father given,
Glad cherubim the tidings tell.
O if this Child by angels cherished,
Had not appeared our race to save,
Mankind in sin and death had perished
As Satan's helpless, trembling slave.
3 Then, dearest Child, let me enfold Thee
And fondly draw Thee to my breast.
My heart's Delight, firm will I hold Thee,
In Thy great love forever blest.
Before Thy manger kneeling ever,
Thy poverty my wealth shall be,
Nor life nor death my love shall sever
From Thee until Thy face I see.
[Solo]
Christ-child, Christ-child,
Thy great love I prize,
Bring me, O bring me to sweet Paradise!
[All]
Bring me, O bring me to sweet Paradise! Languages: English Tune Title: WONDROUS STORY
O Have You Heard The Wondrous Story

Draw my heart to Thee!
Draw my heart to Thee!

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! Languages: English Tune Title: KLUG

Fair angels now descend;
Behold, how to the gloomy night
They radiant brightness lend!
A thousand harps are ringing,
And all unite in singing:

Where all is joy and glee?
Why should you wish on earth to roam,
What have you come to see?
Ye heralds consecrated,
Why sing ye so elated:
Hallelujah, hallelujah?

These angel hosts would gaze:
He is the world's most precious Gem,
And heaven sings His praise.
To work out our salvation
He left God's habitation.
Hallelujah, hallelujah!

Thou camest from above;
Thy lips the Father's will relate,
Thou art His pledge of love.
By Thee the peace of heaven
To us on earth is given.
Hallelujah, hallelujah!

Dear Christ, this Christmas day.
O come our welcome Guest to be,
Yes, come with us to stay.
Be pleased to hear our voices
While ev'ry heart rejoices:
Hallelujah, hallelujah!

O Come, Little Children

O come to the manger in Bethlehem’s stall
And see what the Father in heaven so true
Has done to prepare a bright Christmas for you.
2 Behold, in the manger, that strange little bed,
A Child, sweet and gentle, is resting His head,
A Babe, clad in garments so pure and so white,
And fairer by far than the angels of light.
3 On hay and on straw in the manger He lies;
Both Mary and Joseph, with fond, loving eyes,
Are gazing upon Him, and shepherds draw near,
And jubilant angels from heaven appear.
4 O kneel with the shepherds in worshipful prayer
And join the dear angels who also are there;
Sing glory to God in the heavens above
And thank Him for Jesus, the gift of His love.
5 O dearest, O sweetest, O wonderful Child,
So pure and so holy, so good and so mild;
For us poor and weak in the manger hast lain,
For us like an innocent lamb Thou wast slain.
6 Receive then our hearts, which we offer to Thee,
And keep them from sin and from wickedness free;
O render them holy and blessed like Thine,
Thou Son of the Highest, Thou Infant divine. Languages: English Tune Title: TEKNA

Christmas Is Here With Joy Untold
Author: D. G. M. Back; B. S. Ingemann Hymnal: American Lutheran Hymnal #617 (1930) Meter: 8.8.9.8.8.8.9.8 Topics: Carols and Spiritual Songs Christmas Lyrics: 1 Christmas is here with joy untold;
Now young and old are rejoicing.
What angels made known to men of old
The lips of all babes are voicing;
Branches from Eden's tree stand bright
With lights that point to the Giver;
All children whose joy is pure and right
May harbor that joy forever.
2 Joy is a guest on earth today;
It comes with Jesus from heaven.
Come, gentle-eyed dove and sparrow gray,
To feasting this morning is giv'n.
Dance, little child, this festal morn,
So rich in grace for each mortal;
Today was our wondrous Savior born;
And opened His kingdom's portal.
3 Christ was a child like you and me,
And helpless lay in the manger.
In Paradise where the angels be
He welcomes each homesick stranger.
He as our Lord among us lives,
Who rules all heaven's dominions.
To those of a child-like faith He gives
In Eden fair angel pinions. Languages: English Tune Title: SEWEY

The sight of thee at Christmas time

Thy dress so green would teach me:
Fair hope, in trouble and distress,
Is felt to be a sweet caress.

Thy dress so green would teach me.

What golden lights adorn thee!
Like stars they shine in beauty bright,
To fill each heart with pure delight.

How loving hands have decked thee!
Thus God's own love will make of me
For Paradise a shining tree.

As boundless as the deepest sea,--

And let it be Thy pleasure
That I may be Thy dwelling-place,

Then shall I lift my lowly head
With joy beyond all measure. Languages: English Tune Title: WONNBERGER
