219: Angels From the Realm of Glory!
Writer: J. Montgomery
Composer: H. Smart
Verse 1: Angels from the realms of glory
Wing your flight o'er all the earth!
Ye who sang creation's story
Now proclaim Messiah's birth:
Chorus: "'Come and worship,
Come and worship,
Worship Christ the new born King!'"
Verse 2: Shepherds in the fields abiding
Watching o'er your flocks by night;
God with man is now residing
Yonder shines the infant light!
Chorus: Come and worship,
Come and worship,
Worship Christ the new born King!
Verse 3: Sages, leave your contemplations;
Brighter visions beam afar!
Seek the great Desire of nations;
Ye have seen His natal star!
Chorus: Come and worship,
Come and worship,
Worship Christ the new born King!
Verse 4: Saints before the altar bending
Watching long in hope and fear;
Suddenly, the Lord descending
In His temple shall appear!
Chorus: Come and worship,
Come and worship,
Worship Christ the new born King!
220: It Came Upon A Midnight Clear
Writer: E. H. Sears
Composer: R. S. Willis
Verse 1: It came upon the midnight clear
That glorious song of old
From angels bending near the earth
To touch their harps of gold'
"Peace on the earth, good-will to men,
From heaven's all gracious King!"
The world in solemn stillness lay
To hear the angels sing!
Verse 2: Still thro' the cloven skies they come
With peaceful wings unfurled,
And still their heavenly music floats
O'er all the weary world!
Above its sad and lowly plains,
They bend on hovering wing
And ever o'er its Babe sounds
The blessed angels sing!
Verse 3: And ye, beneath life's crushing load
Whose forms are bending low
Who toil along the climbing way
With painful steps and slow!
Look now! for glad and golden hours
Come swiftly on the wing!
O rest beside the weary road
And hear the angels sing!
Verse 4: For lo, the days are hastening on
By prophet-bards foretold!
When with the evercircling years
Comes round the age of gold
When peace shall over all the earth!
Its ancient splendors fling
And the whole world give back the song
Which now the angels sing!
221: Go Tell It On The Mountain
Tradition Sunday School Song.
Verse 1: While shepherds kept their watching,
O'er silent flocks by night,
Behold throughout the heavens;
There shone a holy light!
Chorus: Go tell it on the mountain
Over the hills and everywhere.
Go tell it on the mountain
That Jesus Christ is born!
Verse 2: The shepherds feared and trembled,
When lo, above the earth
Rang out the angel chorus
That hailed our Savior's birth!
Chorus: Go tell it on the mountain
Over the hills and everywhere.
Go tell it on the mountain
That Jesus Christ is born!
Verse 3: Down in a lowly manger,
The humble Christ was born!
And God sent us salvation
That blessed Christmas morn!
Chorus: Go tell it on the mountain
Over the hills and everywhere.
Go tell it on the mountain
That Jesus Christ is born!

His Son of love has come
