“For Unto Us a Child is Born”
For unto us a child is born
Unto us a son is given
And the government shall be upon His shoulders
And His name shall be called Wonderful,
Counsellor, the Mighty God,
The Everlasting Father
And the Prince of Peace is He.

“Once in Royals David‟s City”
Once in royal David‟s city
Stood a lowly cattle-shed,
Where a mother laid her baby
In a manger for His bed.
Mary was that mother mild,
Jesus Christ her little child.
2
He came down to earth from heaven,
Who is God and Lord of all;
And His shelter was a stable,
And His cradle was a stall:
With the poor and mean and lowly
Lived on earth our Saviour holy.
For He is our childhood‟s pattern:
Day by day like us He grew;
He was little, weak, and helpless,
Tears and smiles like us He knew;
And He feeleth for our sadness,
And He shareth in our gladness.
And our eyes at last shall see Him,
Through His own redeeming love;
For that child so dear and gentle
Is our Lord in heaven above;
And He leads His children on
To the place where He is gone.

“Man of Sorrows”
“Man of sorrows,” wondrous name
For the Son of God, who came
Ruined sinners to reclaim!
Hallelujah! what a Saviour!
Bearing shame and scoffing rude,
In my place condemned He stood;
Sealed my pardon with His blood:
Hallelujah! what a Saviour!

MAN OF SORROWS
“Lifted up” was He to die,
“It is finished!” was His cry
Now in heaven exalted high:
Hallelujah! what a Saviour!
When He comes, our glorious King,
All His ransomed home to bring,
Then anew this song we‟ll sing:
Hallelujah! what a Saviour!

“Majesty”
(Pew Bible Page No. 1014)
Majesty, worship His majesty.
Unto Jesus be all glory, power and praise.
Majesty, kingdom authority
Flow from His throne unto His own,
His anthem raise.
So exalt, lift up on high the name of Jesus.
Magnify, come glorify Christ Jesus the King.

Jesus who died, now glorified,
King of all Kings.
