Lantern Procession 2024 lyrics

1. O little town of Bethlehem

O little town of Bethlehem, how still we see thee lie

Above thy deep and dreamless sleep, the silent stars go by

Yet in thy dark streets shineth the everlasting light

The hopes and fears of all the years are met in thee tonight

For Christ is born of Mary and gathered all above

While mortals sleep, the angels keep their watch of wondering love

O morning stars together proclaim thy holy birth

And praises sing to God the King and peace to men on earth

 

O little town of Bethlehem, how still we see thee lie

Above thy deep and dreamless sleep, the silent stars go by

Yet in thy dark streets shineth the everlasting light

The hopes and fears of all the years are met in thee tonight

 

2. Silent Night

[Verse 1]

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

 

[Verse 2]

Silent night, holy night. Shepherds quake at the sight

Glories stream from heaven afar. Heavenly hosts sing Hallelujah

Christ the Savior is born. Christ the Savior is born

 

[Verse 3]

Silent night, holy night. Son of God, love’s pure light

Radiant beams from Thy holy face with the dawn of redeeming grace

Jesus Lord, at Thy birth. Jesus Lord, at Thy birth

 

3. Away in a manger

Away in a manger, no crib for a bed

The little Lord Jesus laid down His sweet head

The stars in the bright sky looked down where He lay

The little Lord Jesus asleep on the hay

The cattle are lowing, the Baby awakes

But little Lord Jesus, no crying He makes

 

I love You, Lord Jesus, look down from the sky

And stay by my side until morning is nigh

Be near me, Lord Jesus, I ask You to stay

Close by me forever and love me I pray

Bless all the dear children in Your tender care

And fit us for heaven to live with You there

 

4. Rudolph the red nosed reindeer

Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer had a very shiny nose

And if you ever saw it you would even say it glows

All of the other reindeer used to laugh and call him names

They never let poor Rudolph join in any reindeer games

 

Then one foggy Christmas Eve, Santa came to say

“Rudolph, with your nose so bright, won’t you guide my sleigh tonight?”

Then how the reindeer loved him as they shouted out with glee

“Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer, you’ll go down in history”

 

Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer had a very shiny nose

And if you ever saw it, you would even say it glows

All of the other reindeer used to laugh and call him names

They never let poor Rudolph join in any reindeer games

 

Then one foggy Christmas Eve, Santa came to say

“Rudolph, with your nose so bright, won’t you guide my sleigh tonight?”

Then how the reindeer loved him as they shouted out with glee

“Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer. you’ll go down in history”

 

5. Merry Christmas everyone

Snow is fallin’, all around me

Children playin’, having fun

It’s the season, love and understanding

Merry Christmas everyone

 

Time for parties and celebrations

People dancing all night long

Time for presents and exchanging kisses

Time for singing Christmas songs

 

We’re gonna have a party tonight

I’m gonna find that girl underneath the mistletoe

We’ll kiss by candlelight

 

Room is swaying, records playing

All the old songs we love to hear

All I wish that everyday was Christmas

What a nice way to spend the year (woo, yeah)

 

We’re gonna have a party tonight

I’m gonna find that girl underneath the mistletoe

We’ll kiss by candlelight

 

Snow is fallin’ (snow is fallin’), all around me (all around me)

Children playin’ (children playin’), having fun (having fun)

It’s the season , love and understanding

Merry Christmas everyone

Merry Christmas everyone

Ooh, merry Christmas everyone
