Gathering | Christmas Offering
Over the skies of Bethlehem appeared a star
While angels sang to lowly shepherds
Three wise men seeking truth traveled from afar
Hoping to find the child from Heaven
Falling on their knees
they bowed before the humble Prince of Peace
I bring an offering of worship to my King
No one on earth deserves the praises that I sing
Jesus, may You receive the honor that You’re due
O Lord, I bring an offering to You
I bring an offering of worship to my King
No one on earth deserves the praises that I sing
Jesus, may You receive the honor that You’re due
O Lord, I bring an offering to You
I bring an offering to You
I bring an offering to You

Reflection | 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
Fall___on your knees
O hear the angel voices
O night___divine
O night___when Christ was born
Closing | It’s Christmas Medley
Away in a manger, no crib for a bed
The little Lord Jesus laid down His sweet head
The stars in the 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 Thee Lord Jesus, look down from the sky
And stay by my cradle ’til morning is nigh
It’s Christmas
The angels are singing
And I know the reason
The Savior is born
It’s Christmas
The bells are ringing
And I feel like shouting
Joy to the world
Go tell it on the mountain
Over the hills and everywhere
Go tell it on the mountain that Jesus Christ is born
It’s Christmas
The angels are singing
And I know the reason
The Savior is born
Yes, it’s Christmas
The bells are ringing
And I feel like shouting
Joy to the world
Joy to the world
Oh, joy to the world
