That mourns in lonely exile here
 C                Dm E   C
Until the Son of God appear

Rejoice, rejoice, Emmanuel

Shall come to thee, O Israel
 
 
Am                   Dm E  Am
O come, Thou Rod of Jesse, free

And close the path to misery
 
 
Am                    Dm  E Am
O come, O come, Thou Lord of might
        C              Dm  E    Am
Who to Thy tribes, on Sinai’s height
       Dm               C         G
In ancient times did’st give the Law
  C             Dm  E      C
In cloud, and majesty and awe

   D              Bm
Oh little town of Bethlehem
    Em        A        D
How still we see thee lie
                    Bm
Above the dark and dreamless sleep
    Em       A       D
The silent stars go by
  
Yet in thy dark streets shineth
        E       A
The everlasting light
    D                   Bm
The hopes and fears of all the years
    Em      A      D
Are met in thee tonight

    D              Bm
O morning stars together
     Em        A     D    
Proclaim thy holy birth
                     Bm
And praises sing to God the King
     Em      A        D
And peace to men on earth
  
For Christ is born of Mary
              E    A
And gathered all above
        D                Bm           
While mortals sleep the angels keep
        Em          A      D
Their watch over wondering love

    D              Bm
How silently, how silently,
    Em         A       D
The wondrous gift is given;
                   Bm
So God imparts to human hearts
    Em         A      D
The blessings of His Heaven.
  
No ear may hear His coming,
             E        A
But in this world of sin,
      D                 Bm
Where meek souls will receive Him still,
    Em           A      D
The dear Christ enters in.

  D                     Bm
Where children pure and happy
    Em        A       D
Pray to the blessed Child
                   Bm
Where misery cries out to thee
    Em         A      D
Son of the mother mild
                   
Where charity stands watching
                  E       A
And faith holds wide the door
      D                    Bm
The dark night waits the glory breaks
    Em           A        D
And Christmas comes once more


  D               Bm
Oh holy child of Bethlehem,
    Em      A       D
Descend on us we pray;
                      Bm
Cast out our sin and enter in
    Em     A      D
Be born in us today.
                  
We hear the Christmas angels,
                  E       A
Their great glad tidings tell,
      D          Bm    
Oh come to us, abide in us,
    Em      A   D
Our lord, Emanuel.

Intro: C Am F G

C                Am       Dm             G
In the bleak midwinter, frosty wind made moan,

C                   Am    Dm      G      C
Earth stood hard as iron, water like a stone;

Dm                Am            C       F       G
Snow had fallen, snow on snow, snow on snow on snow,

C                Am      Dm G C
In the bleak midwinter, long ago.

C                       Am        Dm           G
Our god, heaven cannot hold him, nor earth sustain;

C                       Am        Dm        G       C
Heaven and earth shall flee away when he comes to reign.

Dm               Am        C     F        G
In the bleak midwinter a stable place sufficed

     C           Am    Dm  G   C  
The lord God almighty, Jesus Christ.


C                Am    Dm                 G
Angels and archangels may have gathered there,

C              Am        Dm    G     C
Cherubim and seraphim thronged the air;

Dm              Am    C       F      G
But his mother only, in her maiden bliss,

C               Am     Dm   G  C
Worshiped the beloved with a kiss.


C           Am        Dm        G
What can I give him, poor as I am?

C           Am        Dm         G      C
If I were a shepherd, I would bring a lamb;

Dm           Am       C       F      G
If I were a wise man, I would do my part;

C                 Am       Dm G      C
Yet what I can I give him: give my heart.

"The First Noel"

Born is the King of Is...rael

Verse  1:
D          F#m        G          D/F#
The first Noel, the angel did say
        G             D/F#   
Was to certain poor shepherds
   Em         A   D
In fields as they lay
                  F#m
In fields where they
      G             D/F#
Lay keeping their sheep
      G             D/F#
On a cold winter's night
    Em  A      D
That was so deep

Chorus:
 D     F#m     G    D/F#
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
G           D      Em A   D  
Born is the King of Is...rael


Verse 2:

They looked up
And saw a star
Shining in the the East
Beyond them far
And to the earth
It gave great light
And so it continued
Both day and night


Verse 3:
And by the light of that same star,
Three wise men came
From country far;
To seek for a King
Was their intent,
And to follow the star wherever it went.

         G    D               G C G
A ray of hope flickers in the sky
            Em                D
A tiny star lights up way up high
     C               D                 Bm
All across the land, dawns a brand7 new morn
Em            D    Am     D7       G  C  G   D
This comes to pass when a child is born


         G    D               G C G
A silent wish sails the seven seas
                    Em             D 
The winds of change whisper in the trees
        C              D                   Bm
And the walls of doubt crumble, tossed and torn
Em            D    Am     D7       G  C  G  D7
This comes to pass when a child is born


       G   D            G C G
A rosy hue settles all around
                    Em                 D
You've got the feel you're on solid ground
         C          D               Bm
For a spell or two, no-one seems forlorn
Em            D    Am     D7       G     C    G  E
This comes to pass when a child is born



And all of this happens because the world is waiting,
Waiting for one child
Black, white, yellow, no-one knows
But a child that will grow up and turn tears to laughter,
Hate to love, war to peace and everyone to everyone's neighbour
And misery and suffering will be words to be forgotten, forever


           A      E           A D A
It's all a dream, an illusion now
                   F#m              E           
It must come true, sometime soon somehow
     D               E                 C#m
All across the land, dawns a brand new morn
F#m            E    Bm     E7       D  Dm  A
This comes to pass when a child is born

Once In Royal David s City chords
H. Gauntlett / C. Alexander 1849

D7       G     
Once in royal David s city,
          D7           G
stood a lowly cattle shed
D7      G            C   G
Where a mother laid her Baby,
Em      Am  D7      G
in a manger for His bed
C    G        Am     G
Mary was that mother mild,
C     G           D7     G
Jesus Christ, her little Child.


 D7   G                 
He came down to earth from heaven,
        D7             G
who is God and Lord of all
D7         G       C     G
And His shelter was a stable,
Em       Am     D7    G
and His cradle was a stall
C        G         Am        G
With the poor, and mean, and lowly,
C        G         D7     G
lived on earth our Savior holy.


 D7      G      
And, through all His wondrous childhood,
          D7        G
he would honor and obey
D7       G         C     G
Love and watch the lowly maiden,
Em       Am.     D7      G
in whose gentle arms He lay
C         G        Am       G
Christian children all must be,
C      G        D7      G
mild, obedient, good as He.


D7      G      
For He is our childhood's pattern;
         D7              G
day by day, like us, He grew
D7     G       C         G
He was little, weak, and helpless,
Em        Am        D7         G
tears and smiles, like us He knew
C      G          Am     G
And He cares when we are sad,
C      G           D7     G
and he shares when we are glad.


D7        G       
And our eyes at last shall see Him,
         D7                G
through His own redeeming love
D7       G        C        G
For that Child so dear and gentle,
Em      Am       D7      G
is our Lord in heaven above
C      G         Am       G
And He leads His children on,
C      G           D7    G
to the place where He is gone.

C                          G      C  
Said the night wind to the little lamb
C 
Do you see what I see
C                  G      C 
Way up in the sky, little lamb
C 
Do you see what I see
Am              Em   
A star, a star, dancing in the night
       F       G        E 
With a tail as big as a kite's
       F       G7       C  
With a tail as big as a kite's
C                           G        C  
Said the little lamb to the shepherd boy
C 
Do you hear what I hear
C                        G        C  
Ringing through the sky, shepherd boy
C 
Do you hear what I hear
Am               Em   
A song, a song, high above the trees
       F         G         E 
With a voice as big as thesea
       F         G7        C 
With a voice as big as the sea
C                            G      C  
Said the shepherd boy to the mighty kin
C   
Do you know what I know
C                    G      C 
In your palace warm, mighty king
C   
Do you know what I know
Am               Em   
A child, a child shivers in the cold
       F         G          E 
Let us bring him silver and gold
       F         G7         C  
Let us bring him silver and gold
C                           G     C  
Said the king to the people every where
C 
Listen to what I say
C                      G     C  
Pray for peace, people every where
C 
Listen to what I say

Am                Em   
A child, a child, sleeping in the night
        F        G            E 
He will bring us good ness and light 
        F        G7           C  
He Will bring us good ness and light
