Lyrics from Concert Program
Silent Night arranged by Northland Church
Silent night, Holy night
All is calm, all is bright
Round yon virgin, mother and child
Holy infant so tender and mild
Oh sleep, sleep in Heavenly peace
Sleep in Heavenly peace
Silent night
Holy night
Prince of Peace by David Coleman
An angel appeared to the shepherds at night
To proclaim the birth of Mary’s son.
Fear not, for behold
I bring you tidings of great joy.
For unto us a child is born,
Unto us a son is given,
The government shall be upon
His shoulder, and His name shall be called
Wonderful Counselor! Mighty God!
Everlasting Father! Prince of Peace!
Wonderful Counselor! Mighty God!
Everlasting Father! Prince of Peace!
This shall be a sign for you,
Lying in a manger wrapped in clothes.
The shepherds went to Bethlehem
To see about the good news of the Lord.
For unto us a king is born,
Establishing righteousness and justice
He will reign on David’s throne
The Prince of Peace, for now and forever
Wonderful Counselor! Mighty God!
Everlasting Father! Prince of Peace!
Wonderful Counselor! Mighty God!
Everlasting Father! Prince of Peace!
Born this day in the city of David
Is a Savior, Christ the Lord!
Glory to God in the highest and
Peace on earth, good will toward men!
(Sop.) Born this day in the city of David is a Savior, Christ the Lord!
Glory to God in the highest and peace on earth, good will toward men!
(Ten.) Wonderful Counselor! Mighty God! Everlasting Father! Prince of Peace!
(Alto and Bar.) Glo-o-o-ria in excelsis Deo
Prince of Peace!
O Little Town of Bethlehem by David Moffitt and Travis Cottrell
O little town of Bethlehem, how still we see thee lie.
Above thy deep and dreamless sleep the silent stars go by.
Yet in thy dark street shineth, the everlasting light.
The hopes and fears of all the years are met in thee tonight.
For Christ is born of Mary and gathered all above.
While mortals sleep, the angels keep their watch of wond’ring love.
O morning stars together proclaim the holy birth.
And praises sing to God the King and peace to men on earth.
Rejoice! Rejoice!
Emmanuel shall come to thee, O Israel.
How silently, how silently the wondrous gift is giv’n.
So God imparts to human hearts the blessings of His heav’n.
No ear may hear His coming, but in this world of sin,
When meek souls will receive Him still, the dear Christ enters in.
Rejoice! Rejoice!
Emmanuel shall come to thee, O Israel.
O holy Child of Bethlehem, descend to us, we pray.
Cast out our sin and enter in, be born in us today.
We hear the Christmas angels, the great glad tidings tell!
O come to us, abide with us, our Lord, Emmanuel!
(Sop) Rejoice! Rejoice!
Rejoice, Emmanuel.
Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel!
We hear the Christmas angels, the great glad tidings tell!
Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel!
(Alto) O holy Child of Bethlehem, descend to us we pray.
Cast out our sin and enter in, be born in us today.
Alleluia, alleluia, glad tidings tell!
O come to us, abide with us, our Lord, Emmanuel!
(Ten) Star of wonder, star of night.
Star with royal beauty bright.
Westward leading, still proceeding,
Guide us to Thy perfect light!
(Bass) Come, O come, come Emmanuel.
Ransom captive Israel.
We hear the angels singing great glad tidings tell.
Come, O come, come Emmanuel.
Rejoice! Rejoice!
Emmanuel shall come to thee, O Israel. x2
All hail the power of Jesus’ name, let angels prostrate fall.
Bring forth the royal diadem, and crown Him Lord of all.
All glory to the Savior who reigns forever more.
Rejoice and sing, proclaim Him King of kings and Lord of lords.
Rejoice and sing, proclaim Him King of kings and Lord of Lords!
Lord of lords!
When Love Was Born by Bernie Herms, Mark Schultz, and Stephanie Lewis
Starlight shines, the night is still,
Shepherds watching from a hill.
I close my eyes to see the night when Love was born.
A perfect Child gently waits,
A mother bends to kiss God’s face.
I close my eyes to see the night when Love was born.
Angels fill the midnight sky, and they sing,
“Hallelujah! He is Christ our King.”
Emmanuel, Prince of Peace,
Love come down for you and me.
Heaven’s gift, the holy spark to light the way inside our hearts.
Bethlehem, through your small door
Came the hope we’ve waited for.
The world was changed forevermore when Love was born.
I close my eyes to see the night when Love was born.
This Is Our God with What Child Is This? by Travis Cottrell, David Moffitt and Sue C. Smith
What Child is this, who, laid to rest
on Mary’s lap is sleeping?
Whom angels greet with anthems sweet,
while shepherds watch are keeping?
This, this is Christ, the King,
whom shepherds guard and angels sing.
Haste, haste to bring him laud,
the Babe, the Son,
the glorious One,
the Babe, the Son of Mary.
Who is this Child asleep in the manger?
Tender and mild, this intimate stranger?
Recklessly, wildly loving a dangerous world.
Who is this Light invading our darkness?
Glorious might, the sun rising for us.
Conquering might, He captures the hardest of hearts.
We sing:
This is our God, living and breathing.
Call Him courageous, relentless and brave.
This is our God, loving and reaching,
scandalous mercy and mighty to save.
Hallelujah! This is our God! x3
Sing praise.
Who is this One who will not condemn us?
Why would He come to shoulder our sentence?
Nothing we’ve done will keep Him from giving us grace.
Who is this One? We watch and we’re speechless.
God’s only Son, embracing our weakness.
He overcomes all death and He frees us to live.
And we sing:
This is our God, suff’ring and dying.
Call Him the Hero redeeming the lost.
This is our God, love sacrificing,
all that is holy, accepting our cross.
Hallelujah! This is our God! x3
Sing praise.
This is our God,
living and breathing.
Call Him courageous, relentless and brave.
This is our God,
loving and reaching,
scandalous mercy and mighty to save.
Hallelujah! This is our God! x3
Sing praise.
Oh, this, this is Christ the King,
whom shepherds guard and angels sing.
Haste, haste to bring him laud,
the Babe, the Son, of Mary!
This, this is Christ the King,
whom shepherds guard, and angels sing!
Haste, haste to bring Him laud,
the Babe, the Son, the glorious One,
the Babe, the Son.
This is our God,
living and breathing.
Call Him courageous, relentless and brave.
This is our God,
loving and reaching,
scandalous mercy and mighty to save.
Hallelujah! This is our God! x3
Sing praise!

Carol Medley arranged by David Coleman
Go tell it on the mountain, over the hills and everywhere
Go tell it on the mountain, that Jesus Christ is born
Hark! The herald angels sing, “Glory to the newborn King,
Peace on earth, and mercy mild, God and sinners reconciled.”
Joyful, all ye nations rise, join the triumph of the skies;
With th’angelic host proclaim, “Christ is born in Bethlehem!”
Hark! The herald angels sing, “Glory to the newborn King!”
O come, all ye faithful, joyful and triumphant,
O come ye, O come ye to Bethlehem.
Come and behold Him, born the King of angels;
O come let us adore him, O come let us adore him,
O come let us adore him, Christ the Lord.
Joy to the world, the Lord is come! Let earth receive her king!
Let every heart prepare Him room and heaven and nature sing
And heaven and nature sing, And heaven and heaven and nature sing
The Night That Christ Was Born by Kirk Franklin
Listen to the angels rejoicing ever so sweetly,
Receiving heaven’s glory, the night that Christ was born.
Can’t you see the people coming from every nation,
Pleading for salvation, the night that Christ was born?
Oh, such a wonderful Savior to be born in a manger
So that I can share in His favor, and my heart be made anew.
Listen to the trumpet shouting through the darkness, crying “Holy, holy,”
The night that Christ was born.
Oh, such a wonderful Savior to be born in a manger
So that I can share in His favor, and my heart be made anew.
Listen to the trumpet shouting through the darkness, now behold a Savior
The night that Christ was born.
We Have Our Savior by David Moffitt and Jonathan Lee
Light of the world, Emmanuel,
The Word of God has come to dwell.
Our only hope is in a Child
Let God and sinners now be reconciled.
Glory, glory, we have our Savior.
Glory, glory to our God.
Peace on earth is born in a manger for Love has come to us.
We have our Savior.
Joy to the earth,
This newborn King has come to bear our suffering;
to break the curse that binds us here.
The hope of our salvation drawing near.
Glory, glory, we have our Savior.
Glory, glory to our God.
Peace on earth is born in a manger for love has come to us.
We have our Savior.
The lame will walk. The blind will see.
The captive heart will be set free.
A Child has come to change the world forever.
No more will sin or sorrow reign.
A King has come to save the day.
A light has dawned and darkness
It’s over. It’s over!
Glory, glory, we have our Savior.
Glory, glory to our God.
Peace on earth is born in a manger for love has come to us.
Love has come to us.
We have our Savior.
You Are Loved by David Moffitt and Laura Story
Do you see the wise men coming from afar;
Traveling through the darkness to the radiant star?
Can you see the stable filled with heaven’s light
And the lowly manger that holds our hope tonight?
Do you hear the footsteps of shepherds and of kings
Running to behold Him, bringing offerings?
Can you hear the Baby, hear His gently cry
Amidst the sound of angels and Mary’s lullaby?
Do you hear what I hear?
Our God of heaven is drawing near
With this message from above:
“Child, you are loved.”
Do you know the story of God’s redeeming heart?
Despite your fears and failures, He loves you as you are.
Reaching out in mercy, He gently lifts your face
And says, “My child, your sin and shame are covered by my grace.”
Do you hear what I hear?
Our God of heaven is drawing near
With this message from above:
“Child, you are loved.”
With this message from above:
“Child, you are loved.”
