Entrance 170 We three Kings of Orient are
We three kings of Orient are
Bearing gifts we traverse afar
Field and fountain, moor and mountain
Following yonder star
Refrain:
O Star of wonder, star of night
Star with royal beauty bright
Westward leading, still proceeding
Guide us to thy Perfect Light
Born a King on Bethlehem's plain
Gold I bring to crown Him again
King forever, ceasing never
Over us all to rein (Refrain)
Frankincense to offer have I
Incense owns a Deity nigh
Pray'r and praising, all men raising
Worship Him, God most high (Refrain)
Myrrh is mine, its bitter perfume
Breathes of life of gathering gloom
Sorrowing, sighing, bleeding, dying
Sealed in the stone-cold tomb (Refrain)
Glorious now behold Him arise
King and God and Sacrifice
Alleluia, Alleluia
Earth to heav'n replies (Refrain)
Gloria - Psallite Gloria
Glory to God in the highest,
and on earth peace to people
of good will.
We praise you,
we bless you,
we adore you,
we glorify you,
we give you thanks for your great glory,
Lord God, heavenly King,
O God, almighty Father.
Lord Jesus Christ, Only Begotten Son,
Lord God, Lamb of God,
Son of the Father,
you take away the sins of the world,
have mercy on us;
you take away the sins of the world,
receive our prayer;
you are seated at the right hand
of the Father,
have mercy on us.
For you alone are the Holy One,
you alone are the Lord,
you alone are the Most High,
Jesus Christ,
with the Holy Spirit,
in the glory of God the Father.
Amen.

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.

Hosanna in the highest.

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.
478 Laudate Omnes Gentes (note: I've mispronounced the G! it should be a hard G, so Gentes not Djentes)

Laudate Dominum
Laudate Omnes Gentes

Final 156 Joy to the world
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 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 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 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 of His love,
the wonders, wonders of His love.
