Gathering | Angels We Have Heard On High
Angels we have heard on high
Sweetly singing o’er the plains
And the mountains in reply
Echoing their joyous strains
Glo___ria, in excelsis Deo
Glo___ria, in excelsis Deo
Shepherds, why this jubilee?
Why your joyous strains prolong?
What the gladsome tidings be
Which inspire your heavenly song?
Glo___ria, in excelsis Deo
Glo___ria, in excelsis Deo
Mass Setting | Mass of St. Ann
Preparation of the Gifts | 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
I love You, Lord Jesus
Look down from the sky
And stay by my side
Until morning is nigh
Be near me, Lord Jesus
I ask You to stay
Close by me forever
And love me I pray
Bless all the dear children
In Your tender care
And fit us for heaven
To live with You there
Communion | O Holy Night
O holy night
The stars are brightly shining
It is the night of our dear Savior’s birth
Long lay the world
In sin and error pining
‘Til He appeared and the soul felt its worth
A thrill of hope
The weary world rejoices
For yonder breaks
A new and glorious morn
Fall___on your knees
O hear the angel voices
O night___divine
O night___when Christ was born
Truly He taught us to love one another
His law is love and His gospel is peace
Chains He shall break
For the slave is our brother
And in His name all oppression shall cease
Sweet hymns of joy in grateful chorus raise we
Let all within us praise His holy Name
Christ___is the Lord
O praise___His Name forever
His pow’r___and glory evermore
Evermore proclaim
His pow’r___and glo___ry evermore
Evermore proclaim
Fall___on your knees
O hear the angel voices
O night___divine
O night___when Christ was born
O night___divine
O night divine
Closing | Hail, Holy Queen
Hail, holy Queen enthroned above
O Maria
Hail, mother of mercy and of love
O Maria
Triumph, all ye cherubim
Sing with us, ye seraphim
Heav’n and earth resound the hymn
Salve, salve, salve, Regina
Our life, our sweetness here below
O Maria
Our hope in sorrow and in woe
O Maria
Triumph, all ye cherubim
Sing with us, ye seraphim
Heav’n and earth resound the hymn
Salve, salve, salve, Regina
