I'll Be Home For Christmas |
| 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 |
| For Christ is born of Mary |
| And gather’d all above |
| While mortals sleep, the angels keep |
| Their watch of wond’ring love |
| O morning stars together |
| Proclaim the holy birth |
| And praises sing to God the King |
| And Peace to men on earth |
| O holy Child of Bethlehem |
| Descend to us, we pray |
| Cast out our sin and enter in |
| Be born to us today |
| We hear the Christmas angels |
| The great glad tidings tell |
| O come to us, abide with us |
| Our Lord Emmanuel |
