Below are the lyrics for the carols that will be sung.
Oh Christmas Tree
Oh Christmas Tree, Oh Christmas Tree
Thou tree most fair and lovely.
Oh Christmas Tree, Oh Christmas Tree
Thou tree most fair and lovely.
The site of thee at Christmastime,
Spreads hope and gladness far and wide.
Oh Christmas Tree, Oh Christmas Tree
Thou tree most fair and lovely.
Oh Christmas Tree, Oh Christmas Tree
Thou hast a wondrous message.
Oh Christmas Tree, Oh Christmas Tree
Thou hast a wondrous message.
Thou dost proclaim the Savior’s birth,
Good will to men and peace on earth.
Oh Christmas Tree, Oh Christmas Tree
Thou tree most fair and lovely.
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.
