[Mat 1:20] Joseph Dearest Hover on the song's title to listen the music

“Joseph dearest, Joseph mine,
Help me cradle the Child divine;
God reward thee and all that’s thine
In paradise,” so prays the mother Mary.

Refrain

He came among us at Christmastide,
At Christmastide, in Bethlehem;
Men shall bring Him from far and wide
Love’s diadem: Jesus, Jesus,
Lo, He comes, and loves, and saves, and frees us!

“Gladly, dear one, lady mine,
Help I cradle this child of thine;
God’s own light on us both shall shine
In paradise, as prays the mother Mary.”

[Mat 1:20] While The World Awaited Hover on the song's title to listen the music

While the world awaited God’s redeeming love—
Came to Joseph, dreaming, Gabriel from above:
“God would have you take this virgin as your wife,
For the Child within her is the Lord of Life!”

Lo! the weary Family travels on its way
To the Holy City for the night to stay.
Called for an accounting unto Bethlehem—
There would the Messiah bloom from Jesse’s stem.

Since there was no place for them to settle down—
They, with beasts of burden, rested on the ground.
And in David’s City early that next morn,
Clothed in human vesture, Word of God was born.

Jesus Christ, our Savior—born upon this day:
Ox and ass surround Your bed of golden hay.
In the humble stable, manger for Your rest—
Sleep now, infant Jesus, as the world is blest!

[Mat 1:21] I Know Of A Name Hover on the song's title to listen the music

I know of a name, a beautiful name,
That angels brought down to earth;
They whispered it low, one night long ago,
To a maiden of lowly birth.

Refrain

That beautiful name, that beautiful name,
From sin has power to free us!
That beautiful name, that wonderful name,
That matchless name is Jesus!

I know of a name, a beautiful name,
That unto a Babe was given.
The stars glittered bright throughout that glad night,
And angels praised God in Heav’n.

Refrain

The One of that name, my Savior became,
My Savior of Calvary.
My sins nailed Him there; my burdens He bare.
He suffered all this for me.

Refrain

I love that blest name, that wonderful name,
Made higher than all in Heaven.
’Twas whispered, I know, in my heart long ago
To Jesus my life I’ve giv’n.

[Mat 1:23] Eternal Depth Of Love Divine Hover on the song's title to listen the music

Eternal depth of love divine,
In Jesus, God with us, displayed;
How bright Thy beaming glories shine!
How wide Thy healing streams are spread!

With whom dost Thou delight to dwell?
Sinners, a vile and thankless race:
O God, what tongue aright can tell
How vast Thy love, how great Thy grace!

The dictates of Thy sovereign will
With joy our grateful hearts receive:
All Thy delight in us fulfill;
Lo! all we are to Thee we give.

To Thy sure love, Thy tender care,
Our flesh, soul, spirit, we resign:
O fix Thy sacred presence there,
And seal the abode for ever Thine.

O King of glory, Thy rich grace
Our feeble thought surpasses far;
Yea, even our crimes, though numberless,
Less numerous than Thy mercies are.

Still, Lord, Thy saving health display,
And arm our souls with heav’nly zeal;
So fearless shall we urge our way
Through all the powers of earth and hell.

[Mat 1:23] God With Us Hover on the song's title to listen the music

Softly beaming, brightly gleaming,
See yon lovely star;
Glad good news it brings to men,
For in little Bethlehem,
In a manger lies a Stranger,
Christ the Lord and King,
Come to earth salvation unto all to bring.

Refrain

Guiding star, O shine upon our path today,
As of old, still lead us with thy beauteous ray;
By thy light reveal to us the King of love,
Till at last we sing His praise above.

Angels singing, earthward winging,
From the realms of light;
Hover over Judah’s plain,
Lifting high a joyous strain,
Wondrous story, peace and glory,
Is their matchless theme,
For the wondrous Infant shall from sin redeem.

Refrain

Waiting sages, through the ages,
Of His coming told;
God with us—Emmanuel,
Now with sinful man doth dwell;
High and holy, meek and lowly,
God and man is He,
Born today with pow’r divine our souls to free.

[Mat 1:23] God With Us! O Glorious Name! Hover on the song's title to listen the music

God with us! O glorious Name!
Let it shine in endless fame:
God and man in Christ unite;
O mysterious depth and height!

God with us! the eternal Son
Took our soul, our flesh, and bone;
Now, ye saints, His grace admire,
Swell the song with holy fire.

God with us! but tainted not
With the first transgressor’s blot;
Yet did He our sins sustain,
Bear the guilt, the curse, the pain.

God with us! O wondrous grace!
Let us see Him face to face;
That we may Immanuel sing,
As we ought, our God and King!

[Mat 1:23] Slowly Fall The Snowflakes Hover on the song's title to listen the music

Slowly fall the snowflakes, clothing earth in white,
Sweetly bells are chiming, on this Christmas night;
Dark the earth aforetime, white on Christmas morn;
Christ the curse reversing—Mary’s Son is born.

Slowly fall the snowflakes, virgin-white the sod,
In the chill descending, like the grace of God;
Wild the varied chimings, one tale only tell—
Lies in Bethlehem’s manger great Emmanuel.

Slowly fall the snowflakes, hang the holly high,
Bright its berries greeting God Incarnate nigh;
Dark the earth no longer, barren nevermore,
Grace-flowers spring to blossom on th’eternal shore.

[Mat 1:23] Triumph, Ye Heavens! Hover on the song's title to listen the music

Triumph, ye heavens! rejoice ye with high adoration!
Sing to the Lord, to the Savior, in glad exultation!
Angels give ear! God unto men draweth near,
Bringing to lost ones salvation.

God in man’s nature! O mystery past comprehending!
Now is the temple thrown wide and the incense ascending!
Christ is the way! We who were once far away,
Now at His footstool are bending.

Hast Thou, O Holy One, deigned of my need to be thinking?
Chosen me, called me, the waters of life to be drinking?
Shall not my mind fullness of blessing here find,
Deep in humility sinking?

Faithful Immanuel! let me Thy glories be telling;
Ever, my Savior, be Thou in mine inmost heart dwelling.
With me abide; teach me to stay at Thy side,
Where the love-fountain is welling.
