Christ Is Born (Sherman)

List to the mu­sic ov­er the earth

Loud the mer­ry joy-bells tell of Je­sus’ birth;

Join in the mu­sic

for on this morn

Christ

our Lord and king is born.

Glory in the high­est

glo­ry give today

Tell the bless­èd sto­ry

sound aloud the lay;

Ring out the tid­ings

for on this morn

Christ

our Lord and king

is born.

Peace He is bring­ing

good­will to men

Gifts of grace and glo­ry tell it once again;

O may our hearts for love

Lord

of Thee

One eter­nal Christ­mas be.

Soon will the day­star shin­ing so bright

Turn the gloom to glo­ry

dark­ness in­to light;

Glad hal­le­luj­ah sing on this morn

For our Sav­ior king is born.

Oh! star of beau­ty

light up the way;

Where thy glo­ry shin­eth from the gates of day:

And in our hearts this bright Christ­mas morn

May our Lord and king be born.
