SILENT NIGHT

Snippet

What a paradox that a babe in a manger should be called mighty! Yet even 

as a baby, Jesus Christ revealed power. His birth affected the heavens as 

that star appeared. The star affected the Magi, and they left their homes and 

made that long journey to Jerusalem. Their announcement shook King Herod 

and his court. Jesus' birth brought angels from heaven and simple shepherds 

from their flocks on the hillside. Midnight became midday as the glory of the 

Lord appeared to men.  Reference: His Name is Wonderful, Christianity 

Today. 4, p. 545, 

Scripture

While they were there, the time came for the baby to be born, 

and she gave birth to her firstborn, a son. She wrapped him in 

cloths and placed him in a manger, because there was no guest 

room available for them.  Luke 2:6-7 NIV

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!

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

Silent night! holy night!

Shepherds quake at the sight

Glories stream from heaven afar

Heavenly hosts sing Alleluia

Christ the Saviour is born

Christ the Saviour is born!

Sentence Prayer

Christ is Coming

Christ has Come

Christ will Come Again
