>>In the bleak midwinter,
frosty wind made moan,
00:17:01.50\00:17:13.76
Earth stood hard as
iron, water like a stone;
00:17:14.26\00:17:26.63
Snow had fallen, snow
on snow, snow on snow,
00:17:27.00\00:17:39.46
In the bleak
midwinter, long time ago.
00:17:39.86\00:17:52.83
Angels and archangels
they were gathered there,
00:17:53.73\00:18:07.00
Cherubim and
seraphim thronged the air;
00:18:07.30\00:18:19.10
But His mother
only, in her maiden bliss,
00:18:19.43\00:18:32.96
Worshipped the
beloved with a kiss.
00:18:33.30\00:18:46.86
O What can I give
Him, Poor as I am?
00:18:47.33\00:19:02.26
If I were a shepherd
I would bring a lamb;
00:19:02.60\00:19:16.30
If I were a wise
man I would do my part;
00:19:16.70\00:19:29.46
Yet what can I give
Him? Give Him my heart,
00:19:29.93\00:19:44.36
Yet what can I give
Him? Give Him my heart.
00:19:44.73\00:20:03.63
>>Away in a
manger no crib for a bed,
00:20:39.83\00:20:44.46
The little Lord Jesus
laid down His sweet head.
00:20:44.66\00:20:53.63
The stars in the
bright sky looked
00:20:53.86\00:20:54.60
down where He lay,
00:20:54.60\00:21:03.06
The little Lord
Jesus asleep on the hay.
00:21:03.40\00:21:14.76
The cattle are
lowing the baby awakes,
00:21:25.43\00:21:32.63
But little Lord
Jesus no crying He makes.
00:21:32.90\00:21:42.03
I love Thee, Lord Jesus!
00:21:42.36\00:21:42.86
Look down from the sky,
00:21:42.86\00:21:51.33
And stay by my
cradle till morning is nigh.
00:21:51.80\00:22:03.86
Be near me, Lord
Jesus; I ask Thee to stay,
00:22:23.63\00:22:32.00
Close by me
forever and love me I pray.
00:22:32.26\00:22:41.46
Bless all the dear children in
00:22:41.73\00:22:42.43
Thy tender care
00:22:42.43\00:22:50.90
And take us to heaven
to live with Thee there.
00:22:51.13\00:23:03.06
>>Have you heard the
sound of the angel voices
00:23:42.10\00:23:47.86
ringing out so
sweetly, ringing out so clear?
00:23:48.06\00:23:54.40
Have you seen the star
shining out so brightly
00:23:54.63\00:24:00.90
as a sign from God that
Christ the Lord is here?
00:24:01.50\00:24:08.03
Have you heard
the news that they
00:24:08.33\00:24:09.10
bring from heaven
00:24:09.10\00:24:13.90

He will bring new
light to a world in darkness,
00:25:33.33\00:25:38.96
like a bright star
shining in the skies above.
00:25:39.26\00:25:45.63
He will bring new hope
to the waiting nations,
00:25:46.16\00:25:52.23
when he comes to
reign in purity and love.
00:25:52.70\00:25:58.93
