ONCE IN ROYAL DAVID’S CITY - Soloist: Nicole Barber (Higher Bebington Junior School)
(1st verse SOLO)
1. Once in royal David’s city,2. He came down to earth from heaven,
Stood a lowly cattle shed,Who is God and Lord of all,
Where a mother laid her Baby,And His shelter was a stable,
In a manger for His bed:And His cradle was a stall:
Mary was that mother mild,With the poor, and mean and lowly,
Jesus Christ, her little Child.Lived on earth our Saviour holy.
3. And our eyes at last shall see him,4. Not in that poor lowly stable,
Through His own redeeming grace.With the oxen standing by,
For that Child, so dear and gentle,We shall see Him, but in heaven,
Is our Lord in heaven above:Set at God’s right hand on high:
And he leads his children on,When like starts his children crowned,
To the place where he is gone.All in white shall wait around.
Creative Community Choir / Musical Director: James Sills

OH LITTLE TOWN OF BETHLEHEM
(1st verse SOLO)
1.Oh little town of Bethlehem3. How silently, how silently,
How still we see thee lie.The wondrous gift is given.
Above thy deep and dreamless sleep,So God imparts to human hearts,
The silent stars go by.The blessings of His Heaven.
Yet in thy dark streets shineth,No ear may hear His coming,
The everlasting Light.But in this world of sin.
The hopes and fears of all the years,Where meek souls will receive Him still,
Are met in thee tonight.The dear Christ enters in.
2. For Christ is born of Mary,4. O Holy Child of Bethlehem,
And gathered all above.Descend to us we pray.
While mortals sleep the angels keep,Cast out our sin and enter in,
Their watch of wondering love.Be born in us today.
O morning stars together,We hear the Christmas angels,
Proclaim the holy birth.The great glad tidings tell.
And praises sing to God the King,O come to us, abide with us,
And peace to men on earth.Our Lord Emmanuel!
Birkenhead High School Academy Choir / Directors: Chris Watson, Jeanette Boyhan & Matt Lammin

1. Hark the herald angels sing2. Christ by highest heav'n adored
"Glory to the newborn King! Christ the everlasting Lord!
Peace on earth and mercy mild Late in time behold Him come
God and sinners reconciled" Offspring of a Virgin's womb

Born to give them second birth

THE FIRST NOWELL
1. The First Nowell, the Angels did say2. They looked up and saw a star
Was to certain poor shepherds in fields as they layShining In The East beyond them far
In fields where they lay keeping their sheepAnd to the earth it gave great light
On a cold winter's night that was so deep.And so it continued both day and night.
Nowell, Nowell, Nowell, NowellNowell, Nowell, Nowell, Nowell
Born is the King of Israel!Born is the King of Israel!
3. And by the light of that same star 4. This star drew nigh to the northwest
Three wise men came from country farO'er Bethlehem it took its rest
To seek for a King was their intentAnd there it did both Pause and stay
And to follow the star wherever it went. Right o'er the place where Jesus lay.
Nowell, Nowell, Nowell, NowellNowell, Nowell, Nowell, Nowell
Born is the King of Israel!Born is the King of Israel!
