Carols with The Salvos
1. Hark The Herald Angels Sing
1. Hark! The herald angels sing:
Glory to the newborn King.
Peace on earth and mercy mild,
God and sinners reconciled.
Joyful all ye nations rise,
Join the triumph of the skies;
With the angelic hose proclaim,
Christ is born in Bethlehem.
Hark the herald angels sing:
Glory to the newborn King!
2. Christ, by highest Heaven adored,
Christ the everlasting Lord,
Late in time behold Him come,
Offspring of a virgin's womb.
Veiled in flesh the Godhead see;
Hail the incarnate Deity!
Pleased as man with man to dwell,
Jesus, our Immanuel!
Hark the herald angels sing:
Glory to the newborn King!
3. Hail the Heaven-born Prince of Peace
Hail the Sun of righteousness!
Light and life to all He brings,
Risen with healing in His wings.
Mild He lays His glory by,
Born that man no more may die,
Born to raise the sons of earth,
Born to give them second birth,
Hark the herald angels sing:
Glory to the newborn King!
2. Joy to the World
1. Joy to the world! The Lord is
come; Let earth receive her King,
Let every heart prepare him room
And Heaven and nature sing,
And Heaven and nature sing,
And Heaven and Heaven and nature sing
2. Joy to the world, the Saviour reigns
Let men their songs employ,
While fields and floods,
Rocks, hills and plains
Repeat the sounding joy,
Repeat the sounding joy,
Repeat, repeat the sounding joy!
3. He rules the world with truth and grace,
And makes the nations prove
The glories of His righteousness
And wonders of His love
And wonders of His love
And wonders, wonders of His love!
3. Away in a Manger
1. Away in a manger, no crib for His 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 Thee, Lord Jesus! Look down from the night sky
And stay by my side ‘til morning is nigh
3. Be near me, Lord Jesus; I ask Thee to stay
Close by me forever, and love me I pray
Bless all the dear children in Thy tender care
And fit us for Heaven to live with Thee there
4. Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer
1. Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer had a very shiny nose
And if you ever saw it you would even say it glows
All of the other reindeer used to laugh and call him names
They never let poor Rudolph join in any reindeer games
Then one foggy Christmas Eve Santa came to say:
"Rudolph, with your nose so bright, won't you guide my sleigh tonight?"
Then how the reindeer loved him as they shouted out with glee
"Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer you'll go down in history"
5. Jingle Bells
1. Dashing through the snow in a one-horse open sleigh
O'er the fields we go laughing all the way
Bells on bobtails ring making spirits bright
What fun it is to ride and sing a sleighing song tonight
Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way
Oh, what fun it is to ride in a one-horse open sleigh, hey
Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way
Oh, what fun it is to ride in a one-horse open sleigh
6. Deck the Halls
1. Deck the halls with boughs of holly. Fa la la la la, la la la la
'Tis the season to be jolly. Fa la la la la, la la la la
Don we now our gay appare. Fa la la la la, la la la la
Troll the ancient Yuletide carol. Fa la la la la, la la la la.
2. See the blazing yule before us. Fa la la la la, la la la la
Strike the harp and join the chorus. Fa la la la la, la la la,
Follow me in merry measure. Fa la la la la, la la la la,
While I tell of Yuletide treasure. Fa la la la la, la la la la
3. Fast away, the old year passes. Fa la la la la, la la la la
Hail the new, ye lads and lasses. Fa la la, la la la, la la la
Sing we joyous all together. Fa la la la la, la la la la
Heedless of the wind and weather. Fa la la la la, la la la la
7. We Wish You A Merry Christmas
1. We wish you a Merry Christmas, we wish you a Merry Christmas
We wish you a Merry Christmas and a happy New Year
Good tidings we bring to you and your kin
We wish you a Merry Christmas and a happy New Year
8. The First Noel
1 The First Noel, the Angels 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
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel. 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
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel. Born is the King of Israel!
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
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel. Born is the King of Israel!
4. Then let us all in one accord
Sing praises to our Heavenly Lord
That has made Heaven and earth of naught
And with His blood mankind has bought
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel. Born is the King of Israel!
9. While Shepherds Watched
1. While shepherds watched their flocks by night, all seated on the ground.
An angel of the Lord came down and glory shone around.
2 "Fear not," said he for mighty dread had seized their troubled mind"
Glad tidings of great joy I bring to you and all mankind.
3 "To you, in David's town, this day is born of David's line
A Saviour, who is Christ the Lord; and this shall be the sign:
4 "The heavenly babe you there shall find to human view displayed.
All simply wrapped in swaddling clothes and in a manger laid."
5. "All glory be to God on high, and to the earth be peace;
Goodwill henceforth from Heaven to men begin and never cease.
10. O Come All Ye Faithful
1. O come, all ye faithful, joyful and triumphant
O come ye, o come ye to Bethlehem
Come and behold Him born the King of Angels!
O come, let us adore Him. O come, let us adore Him

2. Sing, choirs of angels, sing in exultation
Sing, all ye citizens of heaven above!

11. Silent Night
1. Silent night, holy night all is calm, all is bright
Round yon Virgin, Mother and Child. Holy infant so tender and mild
Sleep in heavenly peace, sleep in heavenly peace
2. Silent night, holy night! Shepherds quake at the sight
Glories stream from heaven afar. Heavenly hosts sing 'Alleluia!
Christ the Saviour is born, Christ the Saviour is born

With the angels let us sing. Hallelujah’s to our King
Jesus Christ is here, Jesus Christ is here
12. Mary’s Boy Child
1. Long time ago in Bethlehem, so the Holy Bible say
Mary's boy child Jesus Christ, was born on Christmas Day
Hark, now hear the angels sing, a new king born today
And man will live for evermore, because of Christmas Day
2. While shepherds watch their flocks by night they saw a bright new shining star
They heard a choir sing a song, the music came from afar
Hark, now hear the angels sing, a new king born today
And man will live for evermore, because of Christmas Day.
3. Now Joseph and his wife, Mary, came to Bethlehem that night,
They found no place to bear her child, not a single room was in sight.
Hark, now hear the angels sing, a king was born today
And man will live for evermore, because of Christmas Day
4. By and by they find a little nook in a stable all forlorn,
And in a manger cold and dark, Mary's little boy was born
Hark, now hear the angels sing, a king was born today
And man will live for evermore, because of Christmas Day
13. O Little Town of Bethlehem
1. 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
2. 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

Cast out our sin and enter in be born in us today
We hear the Christmas angels the great glad tidings tell
Oh, come to us, abide with us, our Lord Immanuel!
14. Ding Dong Merrily on High
Ding dong merrily on high,
In heav'n the bells are ringing:
Ding dong! verily the sky
Is riv'n with angel singing
Gloria Hosanna in excelsis!
Gloria Hosanna in excelsis
15. It Came Upon the Midnight Clear
1. It came upon the midnight clear, that glorious song of old,
From angels playing near the earth,to touch their harps of gold;
“Peace on the earth, good will to men, from Heav’n’s all-gracious King.”
The world in solemn stillness lay, to hear the angels sing.
2. But with the woes of sin and strife
The world has suffered long;
Beneath the angel-strain have rolled
Two thousand years of wrong;
And man, at war with man, hears not
The love song which they bring;
O hush the noise, ye men of strife
And hear the angels sing!
3. For lo! the days are hastening on by prophet bards foretold,
When with the ever circling years comes round the age of gold
When peace shall over all the earth its ancient splendours fling
And the whole world give back the song which now the angels sing.
16. Angels from the Realms of Glory
1. Angels from the realms of glory wing your flight o'er all the earth
Ye who sang creation's story now proclaim Messiah's birth
Come and worship, worship Christ the King
Come and worship, worship Christ the newborn King
2. Shepherds in the fields abiding watching o'er your flocks by night
God with man is now residing yonder shines the infant Light
Come and worship, worship Christ the King
Come and worship, worship Christ the newborn King.
3. Though an infant now we view him, He wil share his Father's throne,
Gather all the nations to Him; every knee shall then bow down:
Come and worship, worship Christ the King
Come and worship, worship Christ the newborn King
Wishing you a Happy Christmas
and a blessed New Year
Give joy, love, peace and hope this Christmas
