Lyrics: English: 1 O come, little children, O come, one and all To Bethlehem hasten and to the cow's stall. We'll see what our Father this holiest night Has sent to his children for joy and delight. 2 O see in his cradle in starlight full bright See here where now streams from above a great light, A dear little baby, a heavenly child, More lovely than angels his smile sweet and mild. 3 See Mary and Joseph a glad vigil keep Where cradled in hay he lies softly asleep. In awe see the shepherds who kneel round the King; On high angel choirs all their glad carols sing. 4 O kneel like the shepherds and like them all pray; With hands gently holded, to God your thanks say. Then sing and be merry, who would not rejoice" And join with the angels your heart and your voice. German: 1 Ihr Kinderlein, kommet, o kommet doch all! Zur Krippe her kommet in Bethlehems Stall, Und seht, was in dieser hochheiligen Nacht Der Vater im Himmel für Freude uns macht. 2 O seht in der Krippe im nächtlichen Stall, Seht hier bei des Lichtleins hellglänzendem Strahl, In reinlichen Windeln das himmlische Kind, Viel schöner und holder als Engel es sind.

O God, our help in ages past

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: WinS1996 #21 (1996) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 O God, our help in ages past, Our hope for years to come, Our shelter from the stormy blast, And our eternal home. 2 Under the shadow of thy throne Thy saints have dwelt secure; Sufficient is thine arm alone, And our defense is sure. 3 Before the hills in order stood, Or earth received her frame, From everlasting thou art God, To endless years the same. 4 A thousand ages in thy sight Are like an evening gone, Short as the watch that ends the night Before the rising sun. 5 Time, like an ever rolling stream, Soon bears us all away; We fly, forgotten, as a dream Dies at the opening day. 6 O God, our help in ages past, Our hope for years to come, Be thou our guard while life shall last, And our eternal home.

O Little Town of Bethlehem

Author: Phillips Brooks Hymnal: WinS1996 #87 (1996) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Lyrics: 1 O little town of Bethlehem, How still we see thee lie! Above thy deep and dreamless sleep The silent stars go by; Yet in thy dark streets shineth The everlasting Light; The hopes and fears of all the years Are met in thee tonight. 2 For Christ is born of Mary, And gathered all above, While mortals sleep, the angels keep Their watch of wondering love. O morning stars, together Proclaim the holy birth, And praises sing to God the King, And peace to men on earth! 3 How silently, how silently, The wondrous gift is given! So God imparts to human hearts The blessings of his heaven. No ear may hear his coming, But in this world of sin, Where meek souls will receive him still The dear Christ enters in. 4 O holy Child of Bethlehem! Descend to us, we pray; Cast out our sin, and enter in, Be born in us today. We hear the Christmas angels The great glad tidings tell; O come to us, abide with us, Our Lord Emmanuel!

O Young and Fearless Prophet

Author: S. Ralph Harlow Hymnal: WinS1996 #98 (1996) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D First Line: O young and fearless Prophet of ancient Galilee Lyrics: 1 O young and fearless Prophet of ancient Galilee: your life is still a summons to serve humanity, to make our thoughts and actions less prone to please the crowd, to stand with humble courage for truth with hearts unbowed. 2 O help us stand unswerving against war's bloody way, where hate and lust and falsehood hold back your holy sway; forbid false love of country, that turns us from your call who lifts above the nation the neighborhood of all. 3 Create in us the splendor that dawns when hearts are kind, that knows not race nor station as boundaries of the mind; that learns to value beauty, in heart, or mind, or soul, and longs to see God's children as sacred, perfect, whole. 4 Stir up in us a protest against unneeded wealth; for some go starved and hungry who plead for work and health. Once more give us your challenge above our noisy day, and come to lead us forward along your holy way.

O Master, Let Me Walk With Thee

Author: Washington Gladden Hymnal: WinS1996 #105 (1996) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: O Master, let me walk with thee In lowly paths of service free; Tell me thy secret; help me bear The strain of toil, the fret of care. Help me the slow of heart to move By some clear, winning word of love; Teach me the wayward feet to stay, And guide them in the homeward way. Teach me thy patience; still with thee In closer, dearer company, In work that keeps faith sweet and strong, In trust that triumphs over wrong. In hope that sends a shining ray Far down the future's broadening way In peace that only thou canst give, With thee, O Master, let me live.
