4. Joy to the World! the Lord is come;
Let earth receive her King;
Let every heart prepare Him room,
And Heaven and nature sing,
And Heaven and nature sing,
And Heaven, and Heaven, and nature sing.
JOY TO THE WORLD
Hymnal #

5. Joy to the World, the Savior reigns!
Let men their songs employ;
While fields and floods, rocks, hills and plains
Repeat the sounding joy,
Repeat the sounding joy,
Repeat, repeat, the sounding joy.
Vv. 2
6. No more let sins and sorrows grow,
Nor thorns infest the ground;
He comes to make His blessings flow
Far as the curse is found,
Far as the curse is found,
Far as, far as, the curse is found.
Vv. 3
7. He rules the world with truth and grace,
And makes the nations prove
The glories of His righteousness,
And wonders of His love,
And wonders of His love,
And wonders, wonders, of His love.
Vv. 4
8. Hark the herald angels sing
"Glory to the newborn King!
Peace on earth and mercy mild
God and sinners reconciled!"
Joyful, all ye nations rise
Join the triumph of the skies
With the angelic host proclaim:
"Christ is born in Bethlehem"
Hark! The herald angels sing
"Glory to the newborn King!"
HARK THE HERALD ANGELS SING
Hymnal # 133
9. Christ by highest heav'n adored
Christ the everlasting Lord!
Late in time behold Him come
Offspring of a Virgin's womb:
Veiled in flesh the Godhead see
Hail the incarnate Deity,
Pleased as man with man to
dwell
Jesus, our Emmanuel
Hark! The herald angels sing
"Glory to the newborn King!"
Vv. 2
10. Hail the heav'n-born Prince of Peace!
Hail the Son of Righteousness!
Light and life to all He brings
Ris'n with healing in His wings.
Mild He lays His glory by
Born that man no more may die
Born to raise the sons of earth
Born to give them second birth.
Hark! The herald angels sing
"Glory to the newborn King!"
Vv. 3
11. PSALM 122
1 I rejoiced with those who said to me,
“Let us go to the house of the LORD.”
2 Our feet are standing in your gates, Jerusalem.
3 Jerusalem is built like a city that is closely
compacted together.
4 That is where the tribes go up—
the tribes of the LORD—
to praise the name of the LORD
according to the statute given to Israel.
5 There stand the thrones for judgment,
the thrones of the house of David.
Psalm Reading

12. 6 Pray for the peace of Jerusalem:
“May those who love you be secure.
7 May there be peace within your walls
and security within your citadels.”
8 For the sake of my family and friends,
I will say, “Peace be within you.”
9 For the sake of the house of the LORD our God,
I will seek your prosperity.
Psalm Reading

13. 1 CORINTHIANS 1: 3-9
3 Grace and peace to you from God
our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

because of his grace given you in
Christ Jesus.
5 For in him you have been enriched in
every way—with all kinds of speech
and with all knowledge—
Scripture
14. 6 God thus confirming our testimony
about Christ among you.
7 Therefore you do not lack any spiritual
gift as you eagerly wait for our Lord
Jesus Christ to be revealed.
Scripture
15. • 8 He will also keep you firm to
the end, so that you will be
blameless on the day of our
Lord Jesus Christ. 9 God is
faithful, who has called you into
fellowship with his Son, Jesus
Christ our Lord.
