RING IN THE CHRIST
THREE NATIVITY PICTURES IN SONG AND VERSE
The Kings and the Star (Leader)
- The Kings of the East are riding
- Tonight to Bethlehem.
- The sunset glows dividing,
- The Kings of the East are riding ;
- A star their journey guiding,
- Beaming with gold and gem.
- The Kings of the East are riding
- Tonight to Bethlehem.
Refrain (All sing)

- O star of wonder, star of night,
- Star with royal beauty bright,
- Westward leading, still proceeding,
- Guide us to thy per-fect light. A-men.

Hymn No. 36 O Come, All Ye Faithful, Joyful and Triumphant Call To Worship
- Behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people. For unto you is born this day in the city of David— a Saviour, who is Christ, the Lord.
Luke 2 : 10, 11
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, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. Of the increase of his government and of peace there shall be no end.
Isa. 9:6, 7
Invocation
- O GOD, of heavenly glory, and source of earthly peace and good will ; may our Christmas be merry, because it is touched with joy divine; may the remembrance of thy Christ's birth be holy, because he is really born in our hearts today, in his purity and love; through the same, thy son, Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
