O Magnum Mysterium ……………………… Morten Lauridsen
O magnum mysterium, et admirabile sacramentum, ut animalia viderent Dominum natum, jacentem in
praesepio! Beata Virgo, cujus viscera meruerunt portare Dominum Christum. Alleluia!
O great mystery, and wondrous sacrament, that animals should see the newborn Lord, lying in their manger! Blessed
is the Virgin whose womb was worthy to bear the Lord Jesus Christ. Alleluia!
EVERYBODY SING: (Please remain seated) LET ALL MORTAL FLESH KEEP SILENCE
1) Let all mortal flesh keep silence, and with fear and trembling stand; ponder nothing earthly minded, for with blessing in his hand Christ our God to earth descendeth, our full homage to demand. 2) At his feet the six-winged seraph; cherubim with sleepless eye, veil their faces to the Presence, as with ceaseless voice they cry, “Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia, Lord most high!”
ALL CHOIRS
The Glory of the Father …………………………….. Egil Hovland
The Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us. We beheld the glory of the Father, full of grace and truth. In
the beginning was the Word. The Word was with God. In Him was life; and the life was the light of men. He
came to his own, and his own received him not.
ALL CHOIRS AND BRASS ENSEMBLE
Personent Hodie ……..……………………. arr. Lara Hoggard (Tune and text: Piae Cantiones: 1582) Let youthful voices resound today, joyfully praising Him who is born for us, who is given unto us by the
most-high God, and brought forth from a Virgin. He is born in the world, is wrapped in swaddling cloths,
and placed in a manger in a stable of beasts. He is the ruler over all things. Three wise men come, bearing
gifts. They have found the babe by following a little star. Adoring the Lord, they offer Him gold, incense
and myrrh. Let all the young choristers now sing, as did the angels, praising Him who has come into the
world: "Glory to God in the highest!"
ALL CHOIRS AND THE AMADEUS CHAMBER SYMPHONY
From Christus ……………………………… Felix Mendelssohn
There Shall A Star Come Out Of Jacob There shall a star come out of Jacob and a scepter shall rise out of Israel. With might destroying princes and
nations. As bright the star of morning gleams, so Jesus sheds His glorious beams of light and consolation!
Thy Word, O Lord, radiance darting, truth imparting, gives salvation. Thine be praise and adoration!
From Gloria …………………… Antonio Vivaldi Gloria in excelsis Deo.
Glory to God in the highest.
EVERYBODY SING: (Please stand)

Magnificat ..................................... Christine Donkin
Magnificat anima mea Dominum et exultavit spiritus meus in Deo salutari meo. Quia respexit humilitatem ancillae suæ: Ecce enim ex hoc beatam me dicent omnes generationes.
Quia fecit mihi magna qui potens est, et sanctum nomen eius. Et misericordia eius a progenie in progenies timentibus
eum.
Fecit potentiam in brachio suo, dispersit superbos mente cordis sui. Deposuit potentes de sede et exaltavit humiles.
Esurientes implevit bonis et divites dimisit inanes. Suscepit Israel puerum suum recordatus misericordiæ suæ,
Sicut locutus est ad patres nostros, Abraham et semini eius in sæcula.
Gloria Patria et Filio, et Spiritui Sancto.
Sicut erat in principio, et nunc et semper et in sæcula sæculorum. Amen.
My soul doth magnify the Lord and my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Savior. For he hath regarded the lowliness of his
handmaiden. For behold, from henceforth, all generations shall call me blessed. For he that is mighty hath magnified
me, and holy is his name. And his mercy is on them that fear him throughout all generations. He hath shewed strength
with his arm; he hath scattered the proud in the imagination of their hearts. He hath put down the mighty from their
seat, and hath exalted the humble and meek. He hath filled the hungry with good things, and the rich he hath sent empty
away. He remembering his mercy hath holpen his servant Israel: As he promised to our forefathers, Abraham and his
seed forever. Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit;
As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be: world without end. Amen.
Do You Hear What I Hear? …………… Gloria Shayne arr. Harry Simeone Said the night wind to the little lamb, “Do you see what I see, ‘way up in the sky, little lamb? Do you see what I see? A
star, dancing in the night, with a tail as big as a kite.”
Said the little lamb to the shepherd boy, “Do you hear what I hear, ringing through the sky, shepherd boy? Do you hear
what I hear?” A song, high above the tree, with a voice as big as the sea.”
Said the shepherd boy to the mighty king, “Do you know what I know, in your palace, warm mighty king? Do you know
what I know?” A child shivers in the cold. Let us bring him silver and gold.”
Said the king to the people everywhere, “Listen to what I say: Pray for peace, people everywhere. Listen to what I say:
The child, sleeping in the night, he will bring us goodness and light.”
Ding Dong! Merrily On High ………………. Traditional French Carol arr. Howard Cable
Ding Dong! Merrily on high, the bells are gaily ringing. Ding dong, happily reply the angels all are singing:
Gloria, hosanna in excelsis!
Ding dong, carol all the bells, wait not now do not tarry. Ring out, sound the good noel, the baby born of
Mary. Gloria, hosanna in excelsis!
Hark now, happily we sing and join the angels singing. Ding dong, sound the steeple bell, for joyous news we
are bringing. Gloria, hosanna in excelsis!
EVERYBODY SING: (Please stand) LO, HOW A ROSE 1) Lo, how a Rose e'er blooming from tender stem has sprung! Of Jesse's lineage coming as men of old have sung. It came a flow'ret bright, amid the cold of winter, when half spent was the night. 2) Isaiah 'twas foretold it, the Rose I have in mind; with Mary we behold it, the Virgin Mother kind. To show God's love aright, she bore to us a Savior, when half spent was the night.

SAINT JOHN’S UNIVERSITY MEN’S CHORUS
Betelehemu ……………………………………….. arr. Wendell Whalum (Nigerian Christmas Song)
Betelehemu – Awa yia Baba gbojule, Awa yao ri Baba fehinti.
Nibo labi Jesu, nibo labe bi I, Betelehum ilu ara, nibo la bi Baba o daju.
Iyin nifun o. Adupe fun o, Adupe fun ojo oni, Baba oloreo, Iyin fun o Baba anu, Baba toda wasi.
We are glad that we have a Father to trust. We are glad that we have a Father to rely upon.
Where was Jesus born? Where was he born? Bethlehem, the city of wonder. That is where the Father was
born for sure. Praise, praise, praise be to Him. We thank Thee, we thank Thee for this day, gracious Father.
Praise, praise be to Thee, Merciful Father.
I heard the Voice of Jesus Say …………………… Thomas Tallis (melody)
I heard the voice of Jesus say, “Come unto me and rest; lay down, thou weary one, lay down thy head upon
my breast.” I came to Jesus as I was, weary, and worn and sad; I found in Him a resting place, and He has
made me glad.
I heard the voice of Jesus say, “Behold I freely give the living water, thirsty one, stoop down, and drink, and
live.” I came to Jesus and I drank of that life-giving stream; my thirst was quenched, my soul revived, and
He has made me glad.
I heard the voice of Jesus say, ‘I am this dark world’s light. Look unto Me, thy morn shall rise, and all thy
day be bright.’ I looked to Jesus and I found in Him my star, my sun; and in that Light of Life I’ll walk till
traveling days are done.
Hodie Christus Natus Est ……………………. Axel Theimer
Hodie Christus natus est, Noe! Hodie salvator apparuit. Noe!
Hodie in terra canunt angeli, Noe. Laetantur archangeli. Noe!
Hodie exultant justi dicentes: Gloria in excelsis Deo. Noe!
