Make me a channel of your peace.

Where there is hatred let me bring your love;

Where there is injury your pardon, Lord;

And where there's doubt true faith in you.

Make me a channel of your peace.

Where there's despair in life let me bring hope;

Where there is darkness, only light;

And where there's sadness, ever joy.

Refrain:

Oh, Master grant that I may never seek

So much to be consoled as to console;

To be understood as to understand;

To be loved as to love with all my soul.

Make me a channel of your peace.

It is in pardoning that we are pardoned;

In giving of ourselves that we receive;

And in dying that we're born to eternal life.

Should your life attract or scare?

In you and you in me?

If I but call your name?

Will you set the pris’ners free

And never be the same?

Will you kiss the leper clean,

And do such as this unseen,

And admit to what I mean

In you and you in me?

If I but call your name?

Will you quell the fear inside

And never be the same?

Will you use the faith you’ve found

To reshape the world around,

Through my sight and touch and sound

In you and you in me?

5. Lord, your summons echoes true

When you but call my name.

Let me turn and follow you

And never be the same.

In your company I’ll go

Where your love and footsteps show.

Thus I’ll move and live and grow

In you and you in me.

Offertory 144 In the bleak midwinter

https://youtu.be/OHHl0NiIAy4?si=CNnlGkxDxR-t-7ES

In the bleak midwinter, frosty wind made moan,

earth stood hard as iron, water like a stone;

snow had fallen, snow on snow, snow on snow,

in the bleak midwinter, long ago.

Our God, heaven cannot hold him, nor earth sustain;

heaven and earth shall flee away when he comes to reign.

In the bleak midwinter a stable place sufficed

the Lord God Almighty, Jesus Christ.

Enough for him, whom Cherubim worship night and day,

a breastful of milk, and a mangerful of hay:

enough for him, whom angels fall down before,

the ox and ass and camel which adore.

Angels and archangels may have gathered there,

cherubim and seraphim thronged the air;

but only his mother in her maiden bliss,

worshiped the beloved with a kiss.

What can I give him, poor as I am?

If I were a shepherd, I would bring a lamb;

if I were a Wise Man, I would do my part;

yet what I can I give him: give my heart.

150 The First Nowell

150 The First Nowell

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1mItWsC8RtM

1. The First Nowell, the angel did say

Was to certain poor shepherds in fields as they lay;

in fields where they lay keeping their sheep,

on a cold winter's night that was so deep.

Refrain:

Nowell, Nowell, Nowell, Nowell

Born is the King of Israel!

2. They looked up and saw a star,

Shining in the east beyond them far,

And to the earth it gave great light

And so it continued both day and night.

3. And by the light of that same star

Three Wise men came from country far

To seek for a King was their intent

And to follow the star wherever it went.

4. This star drew nigh to the north-west

O'er Bethlehem it took its rest,

And there it did both stop and stay

Right over the place where Jesus lay.

5, Then entered in those wise men three,

full reverently upon their knee,

and offered there in his presence,

their gold and myrrh and frankincense.

6. Then let us all with one accord

sing praises to our heavenly Lord,

that hath made Heaven and earth of nought,

and with his blood mankind hath bought.

121 All the ends of the Earth (Christmastide Psalm 97)

Refrain/Response 1:

All the ends of the earth have seen the power of God.

All the ends of the earth have seen the power of God. (repeat)

1. Sing to the Lord a new song,

for God has done wondrous deeds;

whose right hand has won the vict'ry for us,

God's holy arm.

2. The Lord has made his salvation known,

and justice revealed to all.

Remembering kindness and faithfulness

to Israel.

3. All the ends of the earth

have seen salvation by our God.

Joyfully sing out, all you lands,

break forth in song.

4. Sing to the Lord with harp and song,

With trumpet and with horn.

Sing in your joy before the King,

the King, our Lord.

Joy to the world, the Lord has come!

Let earth receive her King;

Let ev'ry heart prepare Him room,

And heav'n and nature sing,

And heav'n, and heav'n and nature sing.

Joy to the earth, the Saviour reigns;

Let all their songs employ,

While fields and flocks,

rocks, hills, and plains

Repeat the sounding joy,

Repeat, repeat the sounding joy.

No more let sins and sorrows grow,

nor thorns infest the ground;

He comes to make his blessings flow

far as the curse is found,

far as, far as the curse is found.

He rules the world with truth and grace,

And makes the nations prove

The glories of His righteousness,

the wonders of His love,

the wonders, wonders of His love.

Gospel Acc 178 Caribbean Alleulia (Halle, Halle, Halle)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WXaKJs1rP1M (refrain only)

Refrain:

Halle halle Halle–luia ( 3 x)

Halle-luia! Halle-luia!

Offertory: 127 O little Town of Bethlehem

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

O morning stars, together

proclaim the holy birth,

and praises sing to God the King,

and peace to men on earth;

For Christ is born of Mary

And gathered all above

While mortals sleep, the angels keep

Their watch of wondering love.

How silently, how silently,

the wondrous gift is giv'n!

So God imparts to human hearts

the blessings of His heav'n.

No ear may hear His coming,

but in this world of sin,

where meek souls will receive Him, still

the dear Christ enters in.

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!
