CHRISTMAS SACRAMENT PROGRAM 2007

Choir Director Patti Miner

Boy Narrator 1 I was a lowly shepherd boy

With sheep upon the hill

Looking up into the sky

The night was very still

Suddenly there was a light

A star as bright as day

The other shepherds did awake

In Wonder and Dismay

Boy Narrator 2 Fear not, an Angel voice did say

I bring news of a king

The Baby in a Manger Lay

A host of Angels sing

We bring a message of great joy

To all who walk the Earth

This Holy Child will save us all

It’s the Divine Redeemer’s Birth

So sad to understand

Born the King of Earth this day

Arriving from the East

Male Narrator I am sure we were all there in the Heavenly Host

When Christ was born singing and praising His Holy Birth

May our souls re-live the experience

And prepare for the glorious day when Christ will return

“Halleluiah Chorus” Choir Pianist

Girl Narrator 1 So now --- I wonder when he comes again

Will herald angels sing

Will Earth be white with drifted snow

Or will the world know spring

I wonder if one star will shine

Far brighter than the rest

Will daylight stay the whole night through

Will song birds leave their nest

Oh when that blessed day is here

He’ll love me and he’ll say

You’ve served me well my little child

Come unto my arms to stay

“I WONDER WHEN HE COMES AGAIN”

NEW VERSE

Written by Patti Miner

He will return to Earth one day

We do not know the time

In clouds of glory He’ll appear

With Heavens Host Divine

We look to see the signs of times

We must each prepare

And Fill our lamps with gospel light

And then we shall not fear

He wants us to return to Him

We can if we’ll obey

For Christ is our Redeeming Lord

He’s the Truth, the Light, the Way
