Poems of Advent 3



Christ is Born!  Hallelujah!:
Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
Christ is born!  Hallelujah!  Christ is born! Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
On this glad morning Christ is born! 
With trumpets sounding Christ is born!
Christ is born!  Hallelujah! 

Day of Days:
O day of days the earth awakes. Behold! The King has come!
O day of days our hearts awake.  Behold! The King has come!
O joyous hour the angels sing.  Behold!  The King has come!
O blessed night the shepherds watch!  Behold!  The King has come!

Hallelujah and Rejoice:
Christ is born!  Hallelujah!  Hallelujah!  Hallelujah!  Hallelujah!
Christ is born!  Christ is born!  Christ is born!  Hallelujah!
Rejoice!  Hallelujah!  Rejoice!  Hallelujah!
Hallelujah!  Hallelujah!  Hallelujah!
Behold!  Thy King has come!
Rejoice!  Hallelujah!  Rejoice! 

Merry Christmas to you all!
