Christmas songs, 2020

Put together a few ideas. Our music teacher put some of them to music. A new school carol was born...

We shepherds in the dark, alone,
until the glory of the Lord lit up our world.
Sweet babe, that helpless little lamb
lay in a manger, here from heaven hurled.

We have no words. We gaze in awe and wonder.
Glory glory glory is our song. We sing with angels!
Jesus king is born on earth this night
We shepherds were the first to see the sight.

Sweet babe, you helpless tiny lamb
For our mistakes and failures born this night.
We shepherds celebrate with angels high
And cannot keep but shout out our delight.

Sweet babe, we kings who travelled from afar
Bow down before your regal majesty.
I see the Saviour in your gentle eyes
And know you came to earth for me.

Chorus. Jesus Saviour, come for us
Light our hearts now in the dark. 

Where is the child? Where is the king
We’ve travelled far to worship Him.
Gold, myrrh and frankincense we bring
To honour him.

Where is the child? Where is the king? 
Whose star has made our hearts to sing?
Gold, myrrh and frankincense we bring
To honour him.

Where is the child? We heard the cry
Of angels lighting up the sky.
The shout of gladness brought us joy
We come to find the baby boy.

Come Lord Jesus into our hearts today.
Christmas is come. You are here. To stay.
