Song Lyrics

For Sunday, December 14

 

Jesus What a Friend for Sinners

Jesus, what a friend for sinners
Jesus, lover of my soul
Friends may fail me, foes assail me
He, my Savior, makes me whole

Chorus
Hallelujah, what a Savior
Hallelujah, what a friend
Saving, helping, keeping, loving
He is with me to the end

Jesus, what a strength in weakness
Let me hide myself in Him
Tempted, tried, and sometimes failing
He, my strength, my victory wins

Jesus, what a help in sorrow
While the billows o’er me roll
Even when my heart is breaking
He, my comfort, helps my soul

Jesus, I do now receive Him
More than all in Him I find
He hath granted me forgiveness
I am His and He is mine

 

What Child Is This

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 of Mary

Why lies He is such mean estate
Where ox and lamb are feeding?
Good Christian, fear, for sinners here
The silent Word is pleading
Nails, spear shall pierce Him through
The cross be borne for me, for you
Hail, hail the Word made flesh
The Babe, the Son of Mary

So bring Him incense, gold, and myrrh
Come peasant, king to own Him
The King of kings salvation brings
Let loving hearts enthrone Him
Raise, raise a song on high
The virgin sings her lullaby
Joy, joy for Christ is born
The Babe, the Son of Mary

Raise, raise a song on high
The virgin sings her lullaby
Joy, joy for Christ is born
The Babe, the Son of Mary

 

Mary Did You Know

Mary, did you know that your baby boy
Would one day walk on water?
Mary, did you know that your baby boy
Would save our sons and daughters?
Did you know that your baby boy
Has come to make you new?
And this Child that you’ve delivered
Will soon deliver you
Mary, did you know?

Mary, did you know that your baby boy
Will give sight to a blind man?
Mary, did you know that your baby boy
Will calm the storm with His hand?
Did you know that your baby boy
Has walked where angels trod?
When you kiss your little baby
You’ve kissed the face of God
Mary, did you know?

Bridge
The blind will see, the deaf will hear
The dead will live again
The lame will leap, the dumb will speak
The praises of the Lamb

Mary, did you know that your baby boy
Is Lord of all creation?
Mary, did you know that your baby boy
Will one day rule the nations?
Did you know that your baby boy
Is heaven’s perfect Lamb?
That sleeping Child you’re holding
Is the great I Am
Mary, did you know?

 

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
Till He appeared and the soul felt its worth
A thrill of hope, the weary world rejoices
For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn

Chorus 1
Fall on your knees
O hear the angel voices
O night divine
O night when Christ was born
O night divine
O night, O night divine

Truly He taught us to love one another
His law is love and His gospel is peace
Chains shall He 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

Chorus 2
Christ is the Lord
O, praise His name forever
His pow’r and glory
Evermore proclaim
His pow’r and glory
Evermore proclaim

Chorus 1

You Are My King (Amazing Love)

I’m forgiven because You were forsaken
I’m accepted, You were condemned
I’m alive and well, Your Spirit is within me
Because You died and rose again

Chorus
Amazing love, how can it be
That You, my King, would die for me
Amazing love, I know it’s true
And it’s my joy to honor You
In all I do, I honor You

Bridge
You are my King
You are my King
Jesus, You are my King
Jesus, You are my King
