Strangers to your promise, 

Orphans with no home;

Separated from each other, 

All of us, alone.

Hearts so full of hatred, 

Mouths so full of lies;

We cannot see for fighting,

We’ve blackened all our eyes.

Be our peace, O Christ;

By your blood, bring us near.

Be our peace, O Christ;

Perfect Love, drive out fear.

Divided and at odds, 

Hostility in our plans—

O come, O Jesus come 

With healing in your hands.

Destroy the walls of pride, 

The hubris in our hearts;

In you we will be one, 

And no more be apart.

Be our peace, O Christ;

By your blood, bring us near.

Be our peace, O Christ;

Perfect Love, drive out fear.

Do not leave us to ourselves 

Or surely we will come undone;

Bring us reconciliation, 

In your cross now make us one!

Here we have a firm foundation, 

You will be our cornerstone.

Only you can end our hatred, 

Jesus, you and you alone!

Be our peace, O Christ;

By your blood, bring us near.

Be our peace, O Christ; 

Perfect Love, drive out fear.

Christ, of all my hopes the ground, 

Christ, the spring of all my joy,

Still in you may I be found, 

Still for you my pow'rs employ,

Still for you my pow'rs employ.

Let your love my heart inflame; 

Keep your fear before my sight;

Be your praise my highest aim; 

Your glory my chief delight,

Your glory my chief delight.

Fountain of o'erflowing grace, 

Freely from your fullness give;

Till I close my earthly race, 

May I prove it "Christ to live,"

May I prove it "Christ to live.”

Firmly trusting in your blood, 

Nothing shall my heart confound

Safely I shall pass the flood, 

Safely reach Immanuel's ground,

Safely reach Immanuel’s ground.

When my last breath comes to give 

And my body down I lie

Having known it "Christ to live,” 

Let me know it "gain to die,"

Let me know it "gain to die.”

Sing with joy, ’tis Christmas Morn, 

Unto us a Child is born;

Christ has come on earth to dwell, 

God with us, Immanuel!

Shepherds, watching thro' the night, 

Wondering at the dazzling light,

Hear the glorious Angel tell 

Of the Hope of Israel.

O come let us adore him

O come let us adore him

O come let us adore him

Jesus Christ our Lord 

Thousand thousand angels raise 

Songs of glad triumphant praise;

Singing, through the starry sky, 

"Glory be to God on High!”

O come let us adore him

O come let us adore him

O come let us adore him

Jesus Christ our Lord

Jesus! who we now adore, 

May we love You more and more;

As by faith we, wondering, see 

This Your great humility!

O come let us adore him

O come let us adore him

O come let us adore him

Jesus Christ our Lord

My soul in silence waits for God,   

My Savior He has proved;

He only is my Rock and Tower;     

I never shall be moved.

My honor is secure with God,  

My Savior He is known;

My Refuge and my Rock of strength    

Are found in God alone.

O my soul, my soul    

In silence waits for God

O my soul, my soul    

In silence waits for God

My enemies my ruin seek,   

They plot with fraud and guile;

Deceitful, they pretend to bless,    

But inwardly revile.

My soul in silence waits for God,    

He is my help approved;

He only is my Rock and Tower,  

And I shall not be moved.

O my soul, my soul    

In silence waits for God

O my soul, my soul    

In silence waits for God

On Him, ye people, evermore  

Rely with confidence;

Before Him pour ye out your heart,  

For God is our defense.

For God has spoken o’er and o’er, 

And unto us has shown,

That saving power and lasting strength 

Belong to Him alone.

O my soul, my soul    

In silence waits for God

O my soul, my soul    

In silence waits for God

My soul in silence waits for God,   

My Savior He has proved;

He only is my Rock and Tower;     

I never shall be moved.

Into the darkness and into our pain
Into the suffering so blinding 
It threatens to drive us insane
Into the wasteland of our loneliness 

The Word became flesh 

Into this petty and self-righteous game 
Into our constant refusal 
To stop and accept any blame 
Into the hatred and rage we caress 

The Word became flesh 
The Word became flesh

Into the darkness and into our pain
Into the suffering so blinding 
It threatens to drive us insane
Into the wasteland of our loneliness 

The Word became flesh
Into this petty and self-righteous game 
Into our constant refusal 
To stop and accept any blame 
Into the hatred and rage we caress 

The Word became flesh 
The Word became flesh

What kind of King
Comes down from his throne, 
Takes all this heartache
And makes it his own?
What kind of King
Comes down from his throne, 
Takes all these tears
And makes them his own?
What kind of King
Comes down from his throne, 
Takes all this suffering
And makes it his own?
What kind of King
Comes down from his throne, 
Takes all these sorrows
And makes them his own?

The Word became flesh 
The Word became flesh

Sing, you daughter of the King,
Let your joyful praises ring!
See, He comes humbled now,
And before Him all things bow.
He has come to bring you peace,
He who rules from sea to sea.
To the ends of the earth,
Sing His praise — Sing His praise
Sing His praise — Sing His praise

He will set the pris’ner free,
Give you strength, bring victory.
He, our King, is your hope,
Ruling all, so broad His scope;
Lightning from His arrow flies
He has heard His people’s cries.
Trumpets sound for the King,
Sing His praise — Sing His praise
Sing His praise — Sing His praise

He will save you by His hand;
Shining there throughout His land,
Precious jewels in His crown
Are His people all around.
See how awesome is our God,
And His righteousness applaud;
Sing His praise, O child of God,
Sing His praise — Sing His praise
Sing His praise — Sing His praise
