1 ABIDE WITH ME

Abide with me, fast falls the eventide,

The darkness deepens lord with me abide,

When other helper’s fail and comforts flee,

Help of the helpless o abide with me.

2 ALL THINGS BRIGHT AND BEAUTIFULL

CHORUS

All things bright and beautiful, all creatures great and small,

All things wise and wonderful, the Lord God made them all

12

Each little flower that opens,The purple-headed mountain

Each little bird that singsThe river running by,

He made there glowing colors, The sunset, and the morning,

He made their tiny wingsThat brightens up the sky

34

The cold wind in the winter,He gave us eyes to see them,

The pleasant summer sun,And lips that we might tell,

The ripe fruits in the garden,How great is God Almighty,

He made then every one.Who has made all things well.

3 AMAZING GRACE

12

Amazing grace how sweet the soundT’was grace that taught my heart to fear

That saved a wretch like meAnd grace my fears relieved

I once was lost but now am foundHow precious did that grace appear

Was blind but now I see.The hour I first believed.

34

Through many dangers, toils and snares,The Lord has promised good to me

I have already comeHis word my hope secures

Tis grace that brought me safe thus far,He will my shield and portion be

And grace will lead me home.As long as life endures.

56

Yes, when this heart and flesh shall fail,When we’ve been there a thousand years

And mortal life shall ceaseBright shining as the sun

I shall possess within the veilWe’ve no less days to sing Gods praise

A life of joy and peace.Then when we first begun.

4 ANCIENT PROMICE SOFTLY RINGING

12

Ancient promise softly ringing,Shepherd in the fields residing

All through the night,All through the night

Through the gloom still softly singingWith their flocks in peach abiding

All through the nightAll through the night

Waiting for that night of wonderSuddenly the angel singing

Prophets saw and saints would ponderThrough the heav’n lit skies is ringing

Birth beneath that star up yonder Hosts of heav’n God’s praises bringing

All through the night.All through the night.

34

Wise men from the east unfearingLet us now with glad endeavor,

All through the nightAll through the night

Saw his wondrous star appearingPraise our God, Who reigns forever

All through the nightAll through the night

Following through dark and danger Through this night our songs resounding

‘Till they knelt before the mangerFor his love and grace abounding

Birth beneath that star up yonderLove so wondrous and astounding

All through the night.All through the night.

5a AS THE DEAR

Chorus

You alone are my strength my shield, to you alone may my spirit yield

You alone are my hearts desire and I long to worship you.

1

As the deer pants for the water, so my soul longs after you,

You alone are my hearts desire, and I long to worship you

2Chorus

I want you more than gold or silver, only you can satisfy.

You alone are the real joy giver and the apple of my eye.

3Chorus

You’re my friend and you are my Brother, even though you are a king,

I love you more than any other son much more than anything.

5b MORNING HAS BROKEN

1

Morning has broken, Like the first morning,

Black bird has spoken, Like the first bird,

Praise for the singing, praise for the morning,

Praise for them springing , fresh from the word

2

Sweet the rains new fall, sunlit from heaven

Like the first dew fall, on the first grass

Praise for the sweetness, of the wet garden

Sprung in completeness, where his feet pass.

3

Mine is the sunlight, Mine is the morning

Born of the one light, Eden saw play.

Praise with elation, Praise every morning,

God’s re-creation, of the new day.

5c ON THE WINGS OF AN EAGLE

1Chorus

By the lords mighty power,As on wings of a eagle

Israel was set free,The Lord carried them,

From the bondage in Egypt,Through the wilderness

From the cruel slavery.He brought them safely to him.

23

As a Shepherd he led them,Bitter water of Marah,

All the day and the night.With a log he made sweet.

With a cloud in the daytime,He sent quails and rained manna

Through the dark with a light.For his people to eat.

45

Amalek was defeated,By the Lord’s mighty power,

With the help of the LordIsrael was set free,

Moses prayed on the hill-top,From the bondage in Egypt

Joshua fought with the sword.From the crewel slavery.

6 AWAY IN A MANGER

1

Away in a manger no crib for a bed,

the little Lord Jesus laid down his sweet head,

The stars in the bright sky, looked down where he lay,

The little Lord Jesus, asleep on the hay.

2

The cattle are lowing, the Baby awakes,

But little Lord Jesus, no crying He makes,

I love you Lord Jesus! Look down from the sky

And stay by my side until morning is nigh.

3

Be near me, Lord Jesus, I ask you to stay,

Close by me for ever and love me I pray,

Bless all the dear children in your tender care.

And fit us for heaven to live with you there.

7b CAN YOU COUNT THE STARS

1

Can you count the stars that nightly, twinkle in the midnight sky

Can you count the clouds so lightly O’er the meadows floating by

God the Lord doth mark their number, With his eyes that never slumber

He hath made them every one he hath made them every one.

2

Can you count the songbirds playing in the sunshine’s golden light

Can you count the fishes straying, in the sparkling waters bright

God the Lord a name hath given, To all creatures under heaven

When called them every one, When he called them every one.

3

Do you know how many children; rise each morning bright and gay.

Can you count the little voices singing sweetly day by day

God knows all the little voices, in their pretty songs rejoices

He doth love them every one he doth love then every one.

In the day of strifeAnd to God the son

Above the storms of nightTill our race is won

So I’ll sing to the name of the Lord. We can live in the light of the Lord.

10 THE FIRST NOWELL

Chorus

No-well Nowell Nowell Nowell born is the King of Israel.

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 winters night that was so deep

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 a country far

To seek a King, was their intent, And to follow the star wherever it went

4

This star drew nigh to the north-west, Over Bethlehem it took it’s 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 repentantly on bended knee,

And offered therein 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 naught, And with his blood mankind hath bought.

11 GENTLE SPRING COME AGAIN

Gentle life, rise again, from your cold wint’ry slumber,

Touch with life everything, Blessing ours without number

Lord of all life will you lead us on, lead us on forever

Gently life rise again, from your cold wint’ry slumber

3

Winter, Spring, Summer, Fall, Days of sunshine or sorrow

Lord of life, lead us all, Both today and tomorrow

Glory to God may he lead us on , Lead us on forever,

Winter, Spring, Summer, Fall , Days of Sunshine or sorrow.

14 HE’S JUST THE ONE

12

My cloths may be old an look raggedO I’m tired and weary from droving

As I lie ‘neath the stars by the bedAnd this dusty road it never seems to end

As I dream I have one consolation But I wouldn’t even want to go on living

I have a King who providesIf I didn’t have a King Who provides

Chorus

But he’s just the one who made the mountains

He’s just the one who lights the stars.

He’s just the one who sends the sunshine

He’s just the one who made the flowers.

He’s just the one who hangs the rainbow

He’s just the one who placed the pearls

He’s just the king of kings in Heaven,

He’s just the one who made the World.

He’s just the one who made the world for us all

He’s just the one who made the World

15IN BETHLEHEM”S STALL

1

In Bethlehem’s stall lies Jesus the Lord,

The Shepherds’ new King. By wise-men adored.

No place in the inn or the houses of town

His cradle a manger A cross for his crown.

The King of the earth, So poor was our Lord

When sinners accepts, And grace will afford.

The Lord will forgive us Who ever we be,

His life he has given for you and for me.

3

God’s Lamb for my guilt, Complete sacrifice

Who once on the cross for me paid the price

I kneel at Your manger, With thankful acclaim

And humbly I greet You while praising your Name.

I bring You my praise, My life and my heart

In sadness or joy Oh never depart

And give me a heart Lord, That’s filled with Your love,

Prepare for your children a dwelling above.

16IN THE GOOD SHIP OF OUR CAPTAIN

1Chorus

In the good ship of our CaptainThough angry clouds sweep fast and wild

We are sailing o’er life’s seaAnd braking billows roar

Pilgrims to a better havenWe’re safe with Jesus at the helm

Heir to heaven’s victoryTo pilot us to shore

See the gospel banner floatingFaith and prayer and strong devotion

From our topmast o’er the wavesTo our pilot at the helm

Sinners read it’s generous offer, Calm our fears and urge us onward

Come find refuge Jesus savesSteadily to heaven’s realm

Waits the land of peace and rest

As we trust we shall be welcomed

To that haven of the blest
