Come Thou long expected Jesus
Born to set Thy people free
From our fears and sins release us
Let us find our rest in Thee
Israel’s strength and consolation
Hope of all the earth Thou art
Dear Desire of every nation
Joy of every longing heart
Born Thy people to deliver
Born a child and yet a king
Born to reign in us forever
Now Thy gracious kingdom bring
By Thine own eternal spirit
Rule in all our hearts alone
By Thine all sufficient merit
Raise us to Thy glorious throne

In The Bleak Midwinter
04:16
|
|||
|
In the bleak midwinter, frosty wind made moan,
earth stood hard as iron, water like a stone;
snow had fallen, snow on snow, snow on snow,
in the bleak midwinter, long ago.
Heaven cannot hold him, nor earth sustain;
heav'n and earth shall flee away when he comes to reign;
in the bleak midwinter a stable place sufficed
the Lord God almighty, Jesus Christ.
What can I give him, poor as I am?
If I were a shepherd I would bring a lamb;
if I were a wise man I would do my part;
yet what I can I give him - give my heart.

Go tell it on the mountain, over the hills and ev’rywhere;
Go tell it on the mountain that Jesus Christ is born!
While shepherds kept their watching o’er silent flocks by night,
behold, throughout the heavens there shone a holy light.
Go tell it on the mountain, over the hills and ev’rywhere;
Go tell it on the mountain that Jesus Christ is born!
The shepherds feared and trembled when, lo, above the earth
rang out the angel chorus that hailed our Savior’s birth.
Go tell it on the mountain, over the hills and ev’rywhere;
Go tell it on the mountain that Jesus Christ is born!
Down in a lonely manger the humble Christ was born;
and God sent us salvation that blessed Christmas morn.
Go tell it on the mountain, over the hills and ev’rywhere;
Go tell it on the mountain that Jesus Christ is born!

Silver Bells
03:11
|

|
City sidewalks busy sidewalks
Dressed in Holiday style
In the air there's a feeling of Christmas
Children laughing people passing
Meeting smile after smile
And on every street corner you hear
Silver bells (silver bells), silver bells
It's Christmas time in the city
Ring-a-ling hear them ring
Soon it will be Christmas day
Strings of street lights even stop lights
Blink a bright red and green
As the shoppers run home with their treasures
Hear the snow crunch see the kids bunch
This is Santa's big scene
And above all the bustle you hear
Silver bells (silver bells), silver bells
It's Christmas time in the city
Ring-a-ling hear them ring
Soon it will be Christmas day

O Come O Come Emmanuel
and ransom captive Israel
that mourns in lowly exile here
until the Son of God appear
Rejoice, Rejoice, Emmanuel shall come to thee O Israel
O Come O Wisdom from on high,
who orderest all things mightily
to us the path of knowledge show,
and teach us in her ways to go
Rejoice, Rejoice, Emmanuel shall come to thee O Israel
O come blest Dayspring come and cheer,
our spirits by Thine advent here
Disperse the gloomy clouds of night,
and death’s dark shadow put to flight
Rejoice, Rejoice, Emmanuel shall come to thee O Israel
O come O King of all please come,
unite us with Thy creation
bid Thou our sad divisions cease
and be thyself our King of Peace.
Rejoice, Rejoice, Emmanuel shall come to thee O Israel

Have yourself a merry little Christmas
Let your heart be light
From now on, our troubles will be out of sight
Have yourself a merry little Christmas
Make the Yuletide gay
From now on, our troubles will be miles away
Here were are as in olden days
happy golden days of yore
Faithful friends who are dear to us
gather near to us once more
Through the years we all will be together
If the Fates allow
Hang a shining star upon the highest bough
And have yourself a merry little Christmas now.

Silent Night

Silent night, holy night, all is calm, all is bright
Round yon virgin mother and child.
Holy infant so tender and mild
Sleep in heavenly peace, Sleep in heavenly peace
Silent night, holy night, shepherds quake at the sight
glories stream from heaven afar
heavenly hosts sing alleluia
Christ the Savior is born, Christ the Savior is born
Silent night, holy night, Son of God, love’s pure light
Radiant beams from your holy face,
With the dawn of redeeming grace,
Jesus, Lord at thy birth, Jesus, Lord at thy birth

Tangled Blue Minneapolis, Minnesota
Since June of 2000, Aimee and Joel have been making music together. Their first CD was completed in 2003. Recorded at a farm house in Wisconsin, it is a caffeinated, folk-rock blend of songs that have shown their durability as the duo traveled with them over 500,000 miles of highways. With a new home in Minneapolis, Tangled Blue recorded "Advent" in 2008 and will finish a third project this year. ... more
