WE THREE KINGS
We three kings of Orient are
Bearing gifts; we traverse ofar
Field and fountain, moor and mountain,
Following yonder star

Retrain
O star of wonder, star of night,
Star with royal beauty bright,
Westward leading, still proceeding
Guide us to the perfect light

Solo (Melchoir)
Born a King on Bethlehem’s plain
Gold | bring to crown Him again
King forever, ceasing never
Over us all to reign

Solo (Casper)
Frankincense to offer have |,
Incense owns a Deity n
Prayer and praising, all men raising,
Worship Him, God most High.

Solo (Baithazar):
Myrrh is mine; it's bitter perfume
Breathes a life of gathering gloom;
Sorrowing, sighing, bleeding, dying,
Sealed in the stone-cold tomb.

Glorious now behold Him arise,
King and God and Sacrifice;
Alleluia, Alleluia,

Earth to the heavens replies

THERE'S A SONG IN THE AIR

There's a song in the air.

There's a star in the sky.

There's a mother's deep prayer,

And a baby’s low cry

And the star rains its tire while the beautitu! sing,
For the manager of Bethlehem cradles a king

The 's a tumult of joy

O’er the wonderful birth

For the Virgin's sweet Boy

ts the Lord of the earth

Aye. the star rains its fire while the beautiful sing
For the manger of Bethlehem cradles a King

In the light of that star

Lie the ages impearied

And that song from ator

Has swept over the world

Every hearth is aflame, and the beautiful sing
In the homes of the nations that Jesus is King

We rejoice in the light

And we echo the song

That comes down through the night

From the heavenly throng.

Aye. we should to the lovely evangel they bring
And we greet in His Cradle our Saviour and King

AWAY IN A MANGER
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.

The cattle are lowing, the Baby awakes,

But little Lord Jesus no crying He makes;

| love Thee, Lord Jesus; look down from the sky,
And stay by my side until morning is nigh

Be near me, Lord Jesus, | ask Thee to stay
Close by me forever, and love me, | pray:
Bless all the dear childen in Thy tender care,
And fit us for heaven to live with Thee there

GOOD KING WENCESLAS
Good King Wenceslas looked out
On the Feast of Stephen,

When the snow lay ‘round about,
Deep and crisp and even;

Brightly shone the moon that night,
Tho the frost was cruel,

When a poor man came in sight,
Goth'ring winter fuel

Hither, page, and stand by me.
If you know'st it, telling,
Yonder peasant, who is he?
Where and what His Dwelling?”
“ @ lives a good league hence,
Underneath the mountain;
Right against the forest fence,
By St. Agnes fountain.

Bring me flesh and bring me wine,
Bring me pine logs hither;

Thou and | will see him dine,

When we bear Him thither

Page and monarch forth they went,
Forth they went togeth:

Through the rude wind’s wild lament,
And the bitter weather

Sire, the night is darker now

And the wind blows stronger;

Fails my heart, | know not how

I can go no longer

‘Mark my footsteps, good my page:
Tread thou in them boldly

Thou shalt find the winter's rage
Freeze thy bloopd less coldly

In his master's steps he trod

Where the snow lay dinted

Heat was in the very sod

Which the saint had printed.
Therefore, Christian men, be sure,
Wealth or rank possessing,

Ye who now will bless the poor
Shall yourselves find blessing.
