Rejoice in the Lord
Key of C
CGod never Ammoves without Dmpurpose or G7planWhen Emtrying His Amservant and Dmmolding a Emman.
Give Cthanks to the AmLord though your Dmtesting seems G7long;
In Fdarkness He G7giveth a Csong.
CHORUS:
O re
Cjoice in the AmLord. He Dmmakes no mis-G7take.He Cknoweth the Amend of each Dmpath that I G7take.
For Amwhen I am Emtried and Fpuri-Fm /Dfied,
C /GI shall come Gforth as Cgold.
I could not see through the shadows ahead;
So I looked at the cross of my Savior instead.
I bowed to the will of the Master that day;
Then peace came and tears fled away.
(REPEAT CHORUS)
Now I can see testing comes from above;
God strengthens His children and purges in love.
My Father knows best, and I trust in His care;
Through purging more fruit I will bear.
(REPEAT CHORUS)

No more let sins and sorrows grow,
Nor thorns infest the ground;

Far as the curse is found,

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, wonders, of His love.
Away In A Manger
the Dlittle Lord Jesus laid Cdown his sweet Ghead.
The stars in the sky looked Cdown where he Glay,
the Dlittle Lord GJesus, a-Csleep on Dthe Ghay.
The cattle are lowing, the baby awakes,
but little Lord Jesus, no crying he makes;
I love thee, Lord Jesus, look down from the sky
and stay by my cradle till morning is nigh.
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.
The First Noel
The
Dfirst No-Ael the Gangel did Dsaywas to certain poor shepherds in fields as they lay;
in Dfields where Athey lay Gkeeping their Dsheep,
on a cold winter’s night that was so deep.
Refrain:
Bmborn is the DKing of Isr-Aa-Del.
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.
(Refrain)
Hark! The Herald Angels Sing
“Glory Cto the Dnew born GKing,
peace on earth, and mercy Amild,
DGod and sinners reconciled!”
GJoyful, all ye Cnations Drise,
Gjoin the triumph Cof the Dskies;
Cwith th’ angelic Amhost proclaim,
D“Christ is Gborn in Bethlehem!”
CHark! the herald Amangels sing,
D“Glory Gto the Dnew born GKing!”
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 th’ incarnate Deity,
pleased with us in flesh to dwell,
Jesus, our Emmanuel.
Hark! the herald angels sing,
“Glory to the new born King!”
O Little Town of Bethlehem
how Gstill we Dsee thee Glie;
above thy Edeep and Cdreamless sleep
the Gsilent Dstars go Gby.
Yet in thy dark streets Bmshineth
the Emeverlasting Bmlight;
the Ghopes and fears of Call the years
are Gmet in Dthee to-Gnight.
For Christ is born of Mary,
and gathered all above,
while mortals sleep, the angels keep
their watch of wondering love.
O morning stars together,
proclaim the holy birth,
and praises sing to God the king,
and peace to all on earth!
How silently, how silently,
the wondrous gift is given;
so God imparts to human hearts
the blessings of his heaven.
No ear may hear his coming,
but in this world of sin,
where meek souls will receive him, still
the dear Christ enters in.

Note: This song is meant to be sung in “rounds.”
The starting group (e.g. the girls) sings the first line, then the other group (e.g. the boys) sings the first line while the first group sings the second line, etc. So one group trails the other and the basic melody turns into a beautiful close harmony.

Note: This song can be sung in “rounds”:
For example: boys would start off “Trust in the Lord with all thine heart and…”
At that point the girls would start right in: “Trust in the Lord…”

Little Birdy with the Silly Name
Early in the morning,
When I’m fast asleep.
I heard a little chirping,
I heard a little peep.
It’s from a little birdy,
With the funny name.

Just to keep him still.

With the funny name.

The window fell upon him,
And out his guts did spew.

With the funny name.
