Happy spring I hope you all are getting outside and turning everything else off.
Take some time to enjoy and recognize the blessings we have.
Its a beautiful old hymn and I hope you enjoy the spring flowers.

Lyrics:

He leadeth me!
O blessed thought!
O words with heav’nly comfort fraught!
Whate’er I do wher’er I be,
Still ’tis God’s hand that leadeth me.

He leadeth me,
He leadeth me;
By His own hand He leadeth me:
His faithful follower I would be,
for by His hand He leadeth me.

Lord, I would clasp
Thy hand in mine,
Nor ever murmur nor repine.
Content whatever lot I see,
Since ’tis Thy hand that leadeth me.

He leadeth me,
He leadeth me;
By His own hand He leadeth me:
His faithful follower I would be,
for by His hand He leadeth me.

And when my task
on earth is done,
When, by Thy grace
the victory’s won,
E’en death’s cold wave
I will not flee,
Since God thro’ Jordan leadeth me.

He leadeth me,
He leadeth me;
By His own hand He leadeth me:
His faithful follower I would be,
for by His hand He leadeth me.

God Bless, I Love You

Lyrics:

What can wash away my sin?
Nothing but the blood of Jesus;
What can make me whole again?
Nothing but the blood of Jesus.

Refrain:

O precious is the flow

That makes me bright as snow

No other fount I know,

Nothing but the blood of Jesus

For my pardon, this I see,
Nothing but the blood of Jesus;
For my cleansing this my plea,
Nothing but the blood of Jesus.

Refrain

This is all my hope and peace,
Nothing but the blood of Jesus;
This is all my righteousness,
Nothing but the blood of Jesus.

O precious is the flow

That makes me bright as snow

No other fount I know,

Nothing but the blood of Jesus

God Bless

I Love You

Lyrics & Music by: Joe & Bonne Travis

Performed by Bob Parr & “Jay Tucker Travis”

The audio & video recording was made at Tuck’s Place Studio in beautiful Factoryville PA.

Outdoor photos & video all close to home.

“Red Door” a beautiful song by Joe & Bonne Travis (my Brother & Sister in law). Written back in 1985. It gives us a snapshot of the small American church, which I hope we never lose. It is performed by Bob Parr and myself I Hope you enjoy.

Lyrics:

Sunday morning comes 

and the children laugh and play.

As they walk to the church,

 to learn to pray.

As the people come inside 

smiling faces, shaking hands.

And the organs telling stories, 

of the promise Land.

“Chorus”

There’s a church on a hill

 with a big red door. 

Open wide to the people,    

praise the Lord.

There’s a church on a hill 

with a big red door. 

And the people inside, 

are of one accord.

As I walk down the aisle, 

and look at the old wooden pews.

I take a glance at the altar,

the candles too.

As a child comes to light them, 

all quiets down.

I can feel the Spirit begin to move, 

without a sound.

As the service begins 

the pastor looks with a smile.

And the people start to praise and sing,

 in their own style.

Then the word of the Lord 

begins to pour from his soul.

I can feel the excitement, as it is told.

“Chorus”

As the service goes on, 

I hear a baby cry.

And a giggle from some children, 

they get the eye.

As it comes to a close 

we all bow our heads in prayer.

Then we sing alleluia, 

to our Lord who’s there.

There’s a church on a hill 

with a big red door. 

Open wide to the people,    

praise the Lord.

There’s a church on a hill 

with a big red door. 

And the people inside, 

are of one accord

And the people inside, 

are of one accord.

Lyrics:

What a friend we have in Jesus, 

All our sins and griefs to bear!

What a privilege to carry 

Everything to God in prayer

Oh, what peace we often forfeit,

Oh, what needless pain we bear

all because we do not carry

everything to God in prayer.

Have we trials and temptations?

Is there trouble anywhere?

We should never be discouraged,

Take it to the Lord in prayer.

Can we find a friend so faithful?

Who will all our sorrows share?

Jesus knows our every weakness,

Take it to the Lord in prayer.

Are we weak and heavy laden,

Cumbered with a load of care?

Precious Savior, still our refuge

Take it to the Lord in prayer.

Do thy friends despise forsake thee?

Take it to the Lord in prayer.

In His arms He’ll take and shield thee,

Thou wilt find a solace there.

In His arms He’ll take and shield thee,

Thou wilt find a solace there…..

God Bless

I Love You

Lyrics:

“Well the snow is on the meadow”
The evergreen scent fills the air
and the autumn leaves have fallen,
leaving the trees all brown and bare.
As we begin this advent season,
and think of winters that last to long
Oh our hearts should not be heavy
and we should fill the air with song.

(Chorus)

Christmas is a time for caring
Christmas is a time to share
God sent Jesus down to save us
To show the world that He still cares.

Now as we’re running round for presents
and gifts our friends can live without
Please remember the one who saved us
Whose love no one should be without.

(Chorus)

Planning parties, wrapping presents buying clothes and food to share
running errands making cards and decorating everywhere
These distractions around Christmas blind our hearts and steal our time
We must learn to Stop……. for moments to give the lord our hearts and minds.

(Chorus)

Now Jesus came to earth to save us,
not to be lost in red and green
He was born not in a palace,
the lowest place a stable mean.
He taught that we should love each other,
and to be kind to those in need.
Not to judge the poor or hurting,
but help wherever we see the need.

Christmas is a time for caring
Christmas is a time to share
God sent Jesus down to save us
To show the world that He still cares.

I hope this song and video bring the true message of Christmas into your hearts for years to come.

God Bless, I Love You.

This hymn was written by Charles H. Gabriel back in 1905

It is performed by “Jay Tucker Travis” and Steve & Bonnie Stearns.

The audio & video recording was made at Tuck’s Place Studio in beautiful Factoryville PA.

Lyrics:

I stand amazed in the presence, 

Of Jesus the Nazarene,

And wonder how He could love me, 

A sinner, condemned, unclean.

Refrain:

Oh, how marvelous! Oh, how wonderful!

And my song shall ever be;

Oh, how marvelous! Oh, how wonderful!

Is my Savior’s love for me.

For me it was in the garden

He prayed, “Not My will but Thine;”

He had no tears for His own griefs,

But sweat drops of blood for mine.

Refrain:

He took my sins and my sorrows,

He made them His very own;

He bore the burden on Calvary,

And suffered and died alone.

Refrain:

When with the ransomed in glory

His face I at last shall see,

‘Twill be my joy thro’ the ages

To sing of His love for me.

Refrain

We hope this video brings you hope, peace and healing.

God Bless, have a good day we love you.

The audio & video recording was made at Tuck’s Place Studio in beautiful Factoryville PA. 

Lyrics:

I was sinking deep in sin, 

Far from the peaceful shore.

Very deeply stained within, 

Sinking to rise no more.

But the Master of the sea 

Heard my despairing cry.

From the waters lift-ed me.

Now safe am I.

Refrain:

Love lifted me!  Love lifted me! 

When nothing else could help, Love lift-ed me.

Love lifted me!  Love lifted me! 

When noting else could help, Love lifted me.

All my heart to him I give, 

Ev-er to him I’ll cling.

In his bless-ed presence live, 

Ev-er his praises sing.

Love so might-y and so true 

Mer-its my soul’s best songs.

Faithful, loving service, too, 

to him be-longs.

Refrain:

Souls in dan-ger, look a-bove, 

Je-sus com-plete-ly saves,

He will lift you by his love 

Out of the angry waves,

He’s the Master of the sea, 

Billows his will o-bey,

He your Savior wants to be, 

Be saved to-day.

Refrain

This song was great fun and is still a classic.

We hope you enjoyed.

God Bless, We love You.

Lyrics:

Please tell me kind  stranger, what news do you have,
about all these rumors today.
I’ve heard that the teacher they hung on that hill.
Is alive and he’s with us today.
They said he rose on the third day.

I could tell you a story some say is untrue
Some call it a lie and hearsay
But friend I can tell you what you’ve heard is true.
Because I am with you today.

For   I   am   Lazarus
Yes   I   am   Lazarus

This teacher you’ve heard of I know him it’s true
and a friend of mine I’d like to say.
This Jesus he came to my house on that day.
After I had been dead all those days.
He said to come forth, I obeyed.

I could tell you a story some say is untrue
Some call it a lie and hearsay
But friend I can tell you what you’ve heard is true.
Because I am with you today.

For   I   am   Lazarus
Yes   I   am   Lazarus

Now friend are you troubled with your life today,
have the pressures just blown you away?
My life was in pieces I’d thrown it away.
But Jesus he called me to stay.
He said follow me Love’s the way

I am telling the story of my life it’s true.
If not I wouldn’t be here today
Jesus is my Savior to Him I’ll be true
I’ll follow him all of my days.

For  I  am a Lazarus.
Yes  I  am a Lazarus.

I am telling the story of my life it’s true.
If not I wouldn’t be here today
Jesus is my Savior to Him I’ll be true
I’ll follow him all of my days.

For  I  am a Lazarus.
Yes  I  am a Lazarus.

Lyrics:

Little baby holy child
You have come to save us
You lived with us to show us how
we should serve each other.

What would this world be without
Him who set us free
or would we even be here?
We were taught to love
by the son of him above
who loves us like a father.

(Chorus)

Oh the babe who came to save
who wasn’t like another.
He lived with us to show us how
we should serve each other.

Once a king with everything
He left it all to show us,
we are loved and I am told
that Mary was his mother.     

What’s the point of life
if we live each day in strife
trying to outlive each other?
Oh what joy we find when we
share our love in kind
protecting one another.

(Chorus)

Little baby holy child
you have come to save us
You lived with us to show us how
we should serve each other.

Once a king with everything
He left it all to show us.
We are loved and I am told
that Mary was his mother.

Lyrics:

I know that you’re hurting, it may last a while
we all face our test you and me.
But we have to hold out, and just prove our faith
It’s worth more than all gold could be.

We have been blessed, with the best of this life
good health, love and our liberty
but freedom to choose didn’t come easily
someone paid a high price for me.

(Chorus)

We have the gift and a duty to serve
those who need help, don’t you see
all gifts are different, and so are the needs
of lives that we touch you and me.

Our God given freedom, has given us power
with rights, great wealth and country
the helpless and homeless could easily be
us… it’s just fate don’t you see

(Chorus)

I know that you’re busy and don’t have the time
but times all we have don’t you see.
We are like the flowers that last a few days
we’re gone in a season or three.

(Chorus)

You’re life is a challenge so use what you have
your gift is a choice, choose wisely.
Respect all your brothers and don’t be to proud
love’s the best gift don’t you see.

Lyrics:

Oh why for me, 

Oh why for me

I’m not fit to be free 

Why should I be set free.

My shame is like a chain, 

My Soul is filled with pain

Why would He set me free, 

So that I could live free

Oh why for me. 

Oh why for me

Oh why for me, 

Oh why for me

God sent his only Son, 

His work had just begun

To prove He loves me, 

He died on Calvary.

Oh why for me, 

Oh why for me

This grace is for me 

God’s proved He loves me.

Oh why for me. 

Oh why for me

Life is like a Mountain Railway Lyrics & Credits

This Hymn was written by M.E. Abbey and Charles D, Tillman back in 1890.

Performed by “Jay Tucker Travis” & Bob Parr.

The rail-bike footage taken at Soaring’ Eagle Rail Tours in Hawley, PA.

 All music and video production was done at Tuck’s Place studio in Factoryville PA.

Lyrics:

Life is like a mountain railroad, With an engineer that’s brave;

We must make the run successful From the cradle to the grave;

Watch the curves, the fills, the tunnels, Never falter, never quail;

Keep your hand upon the throttle, And your eye upon the rail.

[Refrain]

Blessed Savior, Thou wilt guide us, Till we reach the blissful shore,

Where the angels wait to join us In Thy praise forevermore.

You will roll up grades of trial, You will cross the bridge of strife;

See that Christ is your conductor On this lightning train of life;

Always mindful of obstruction, Do your duty, never fail;

Keep your hand upon the throttle, And your eye upon the rail.

[Refrain]

You will often find obstructions, Look for storms and wind and rain;

On a fill or curve or trestle, They will almost ditch your train;

Put your trust alone in Jesus; Never falter, never fail;

Keep your hand upon the throttle, And your eye upon the rail. 

[Refrain]

As you roll across the trestle, Spanning Jordan’s swelling tide;

You behold the Union Depot Into which your train will glide;

There you’ll meet the Superintendent, God the Father, God the Son,

With the hearty, joyous plaudit, “Weary pilgrim, welcome home.” 

[Refrain]

This is a gift and a hobby I hope you enjoy and this song spreads the message of hope we have in Jesus Christ.

God Bless have a good Day.

Lyrics:

My faith looks up to Thee,

Thou Lamb of Calvary

Savior divine!

Now hear me while I pray,

Take all my guilt away,

Oh, let me from this day

Be wholly Thine!

May Thy rich grace impart

Strength to my fainting heart,

My zeal inspire!

As Thou hast died for me,

Oh, may my love to Thee

Pure, warm, and changeless be,

A living fire!

While life’s dark maze I tread,

And griefs around me spread,

Be Thou my guide;

Bid darkness turn to day,

Wipe sorrow’s tears away,

Nor let me ever stray

From Thee aside.

When ends life’s transient dream,

When death’s cold, sullen stream

Shall o’er me roll;

Blest Savior, then in love,

Fear and distrust remove;

Oh, bear me safe above,

A ransomed soul!

I hope you enjoyed it and my prayers are with all in this world at this crazy time. 

Stay strong in your faith my friends this rocky ride is far from over.

God Bless

Lyrics by: John Newton. Tune: New Britain written 1779  

Performed by: “Jay Tucker Travis” & Bob Parr on lead guitar

Lyrics:

Amazing grace (how sweet the sound)

that saved a wretch like me!

I once was lost, but now am found,

was blind, but now I see.

‘Twas grace that taught my heart to fear,

and grace my fears relieved;

how precious did that grace appear

the hour I first believed!

Through many dangers, toils and snares

I have already come:

’tis grace has brought me safe thus far,

and grace will lead me home.

The Lord has promised good to me,

his word my hope secures;

he will my shield and portion be

as long as life endures.

Yes, when this flesh and heart shall fail,

and mortal life shall cease:

I shall possess, within the veil,

a life of joy and peace.

The earth shall soon dissolve like snow,

the sun forbear to shine;

but God, who called me here below,

will be forever mine.

How true.

God Bless

I Love You

O the deep, deep love of Jesus, 

vast, unmeasured, boundless, free!

Rolling as a mighty ocean 

in its fullness over me!

Underneath me, all around me, 

is the current of Thy love

Leading onward, leading homeward 

to Thy glorious rest above!

O the deep, deep love of Jesus, 

spread His praise from shore to shore!

How He loveth, ever loveth, 

changeth never, nevermore!

How He watches o’er His loved ones, 

died to call them all His own;

How for them He intercedeth, 

watcheth o’er them from the throne!

O the deep, deep love of Jesus, 

Tis a heaven of heavens to me

and it lifts me

up to glory

for it lifts me up to Thee!

Lyrics:

Come Thou Fount of every blessing

Tune my heart to sing Thy grace;

Streams of mercy, never ceasing,

Call for songs of loudest praise

Teach me some melodious sonnet,

Sung by flaming tongues above.

Praise the mount! I’m fixed upon it,

Mount of Thy redeeming love.

Here I raise my Ebenezer;

Hither by Thy help I’m come;

And I hope, by Thy good pleasure,

Safely to arrive at home.

Jesus sought me when a stranger,

Wandering from the fold of God;

He, to rescue me from danger,

Interposed His precious blood.

O to grace how great a debtor

Daily I’m constrained to be!

Let thy goodness like a fetter,

Bind my wandering heart to Thee.

Prone to wander, Lord, I feel it,

Prone to leave the God I love;

Here’s my heart, O take and seal it,

Seal it for Thy courts above.

God Bless

I Love You

Lyrics:

There is a fountain filled with blood 

Drawn from Immanuel’s veins;

And sinners, plunged beneath that flood, 

Lose all their guilt-y stains:

Lose all their guilty stains, 

Lose all their guilt-y stains;

And sinners, plunged be-neath that flood, 

Lose all their guilt y stains.

The  dying  thief  rejoiced  to  see  

That  fountain  in  His day;

And there may I, though vile as he,  

Wash  all my sins away;

Wash all my sins  away,  

Wash all my sins away;

And there may I, though vile as he,   

Wash all my sins away.

Dear dying Lamb, Thy precious   

blood Shall never  lose  its pow’r

Till all the ransomed church of    

God be saved to sin no more;

Be saved to sin no more, Be saved to sin no more;

Till all the ransomed church of God.  

Be saved to sin no more.

E’er since by faith, I saw the stream  

Thy flowing wounds supply,

Re deeming love has been my theme,  

And shall be till I die;

And shall be till I die,  

And shall be till I die;

Redeeming love has been my theme,  

And shall be till I die.

When this poor, lisping, stammering tongue 

Lies silent in the grave,

Then in a nobler, sweeter song,   

I’ll sing Thy pow’r to save.

I’ll sing Thy pow’r to save,

I’ll sing Thy pow’r to   save.

Then in a nobler, sweeter song,   

I’ll sing Thy pow’r to save.

Help me walk from day to day

Lyrics:

I’d rather have Jesus than silver or gold

I’d rather be His than have riches untold

I’d rather have Jesus than houses or lands

I’d rather be led by His nail-pierced hand

Than to be the king of a vast domain

And be held in sin’s dread sway

I’d rather have Jesus than anything

This world affords today

I’d rather have Jesus than worldly applause

I’d rather be faithful to His dear cause

I’d rather have Jesus than worldwide fame

Yes, I’d rather be true to His holy name

Than to be the king of a vast domain

And be held in sin’s dread sway

I’d rather have Jesus than anything

This world affords today

He’s fairer than lilies of rarest bloom

He’s sweeter than honey from out the comb

He’s all that my hungering spirit needs

I’d rather have Jesus and let Him lead

 Than to be the king of a vast domain

And be held in sin’s dread sway

I’d rather have Jesus than anything

This world affords today

God Bless

I Love You

Lyrics:

Blessed assurance, Jesus is mine! 

O what a foretaste of glory divine! 

Heir of salvation, purchase of God, 

Born of his Spirit, washed in his blood.

Refrain:

This is my story, this is my song, 

Praising my Savior all the day long

This is my story, this is my song, 

Praising my Savior all the day long

Perfect submission, perfect delight,

Visions of rapture now burst on my sight

Angels descending, bring from above

Echoes of mercy, whispers of love.

Refrain

Perfect submission all is at rest

I in my savior am happy and blessed

Watching and waiting looking above

Filled with his goodness and lost in his love.

This is my story, this is my song, 

Praising my Savior all the day long

This is my story, this is my song, 

Praising my Savior all the day long

God Bless

I Love You

Lyrics:

Little baby holy child
You have come to save us
You lived with us to show us how
we should serve each other.

What would this world be without
Him who set us free
or would we even be here?
We were taught to love
by the son of him above
who loves us like a father.

(Chorus)

Oh the babe who came to save
who wasn’t like another.
He lived with us to show us how
we should serve each other.

Once a king with everything
He left it all to show us,
we are loved and I am told
that Mary was his mother.     

What’s the point of life
if we live each day in strife
trying to outlive each other?
Oh what joy we find when we
share our love in kind
protecting one another.

(Chorus)

Little baby holy child
you have come to save us
You lived with us to show us how
we should serve each other.

Once a king with everything
He left it all to show us.
We are loved and I am told
that Mary was his mother.

Lyrics:

“Well the snow is on the meadow”
The evergreen scent fills the air
and the autumn leaves have fallen,
leaving the trees all brown and bare.
As we begin this advent season,
and think of winters that last to long
Oh our hearts should not be heavy
and we should fill the air with song.

(Chorus)

Christmas is a time for caring
Christmas is a time to share
God sent Jesus down to save us
To show the world that He still cares.

Now as we’re running round for presents
and gifts our friends can live without
Please remember the one who saved us
Whose love no one should be without.

(Chorus)

Planning parties, wrapping presents buying clothes and food to share
running errands making cards and decorating everywhere
These distractions around Christmas blind our hearts and steal our time
We must learn to Stop……. for moments to give the lord our hearts and minds.

(Chorus)

Now Jesus came to earth to save us,
not to be lost in red and green
He was born not in a palace,
the lowest place a stable mean.
He taught that we should love each other,
and to be kind to those in need.
Not to judge the poor or hurting,
but help wherever we see the need.

Christmas is a time for caring
Christmas is a time to share
God sent Jesus down to save us
To show the world that He still cares.

I hope this song and video bring the true message of Christmas into your hearts for years to come.

God Bless, I Love You.

Set to the tune of “Greensleeves”, a traditional English folk song in 1871.

Performed by: “Jay Tucker Travis”.

Filmed all around Tunkhannock, Montrose & Factoryville PA.

Lyrics:

What child is this who, laid to rest

On Mary’s lap is sleeping?

Whom angels greet with anthems sweet

While shepherds watch are keeping?

This, this is Christ the King

Whom shepherds guard and angels sing

Haste, haste to bring him laud

The babe, the son of Mary

Why lies He in such mean estate,
Where ox and ass are feeding?
Good Christians, fear, for sinners here
The silent Word is pleading.

Nails, spear shall pierce Him through,
The cross be borne for me, for you.
Hail, hail the Word made flesh,
The Babe, the Son of Mary.

So bring him incense, gold, and myrrh

Come, peasant, king, to own him

The King of kings salvation brings

Let loving hearts enthrone him

This, this is Christ the King

Whom shepherds guard and angels sing

Haste, haste to bring him laud

The babe, the son of Mary

God Bless

I Love You

Lyrics:

Good King Wenceslas looked out  

On the Feast of Stephen

When the snow lay round about 

deep and crisp and even

Brightly shone the moon that night

though the frost was cruel

When a poor man came in sight 

gathering winter fu – el

“Hither, page, and stand by me, 

If thou know’st it, telling,

Yonder peasant, who is he? 

where and what his dwelling?”

“Sire, he lives a good league hence, 

underneath the mountain;

Right against the forest fence, 

by Saint Agnes’ foun  –  tain.”

“Bring me flesh, and bring me wine 

bring me pine logs hither;

Thou and I will see him dine, 

when we bear them thither.”

Page and monarch, forth they went, 

forth they went together;

Through the rude wind’s wild lament 

and the bitter wea  –   ther.

“Sire, the night is darker now, 

and the wind blows stronger;

Fails my heart, I know not how, 

I can go no longer.”

“Mark my footsteps, my good page; 

tread thou in them boldly.

Thou shalt find the winter’s rage, 

freeze thy blood less cold  –   ly.”

In his master’s steps he trod, 

where the snow lay dinted.

Heat was in the very sod 

which the Saint had printed.

Therefore, Christian men, be sure, 

wealth or rank pos-sessing;

Ye who will now bless the poor, 

shall yourselves find bles  –   sing.

God Bless

I Love You

Silent Night Holy Night:

Lyrics & Music Franz Xaver Gruber, Christmas Eve 1818,

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!

Shepherds quake at the sight!

Glories stream from heaven afar,

Heavenly hosts sing Alleluia!

Christ the Savior is born!

Christ the Savior is born!

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!

Away in a Manger:

Lyrics: Anonymous

Music: Carl Muller

Away in a manger, 

no crib for a bed,

The little Lord Jesus 

laid down his sweet head.

The stars in the bright sky

 looked down where he lay,

The little Lord Jesus 

asleep on the hay.

The cattle are lowing, 

the baby awakes,

But little Lord Jesus, 

no crying he makes.

I love thee, Lord Jesus! 

look down from the sky,

And stay by my cradle 

till morning is nigh.

Be near me, Lord Jesus; 

I ask thee to stay

Close by me forever, 

and love me I pray.

Bless all the dear children 

in thy tender care,

And take us to heaven

to live with thee there.

God Bless

I Love You

Lyrics:

Oh little town of Bethlehem

How still we see thee lie

Above thy deep and dreamless sleep

The silent stars go by

Yet in thy dark streets shineth

The everlasting light

The hopes and fears of all the years

Are met in thee tonight

For Christ is born of Mary

And gathered all above

While mortals sleep, the angels keep

Their watch of wond’ring love

O morning stars, together

Proclaim the holy Birth

And praises sing to God the King

And peace to men on earth

How silently, how silently

The wondrous gift is given

So God imparts to human hearts

The blessings of His Heaven

No ear may hear His coming

But in this world of sin

Where meek souls will receive Him still

The dear Christ enters in

Oh holy child of Bethlehem

Descend to us we pray

Cast out our sin and enter in

Be born in us today

We hear the Christmas angels

Their great glad tidings tell

Oh come to us, abide with us

Our Lord Emmanuel

God Bless

I Love You

Lyrics:

O come, O come, Emmanuel,
And ransom captive Israel
That mourns in lonely exile here
Until the Son of God appear.

Refrain:

Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel
Shall come to thee, O Israel.

O come, Thou Wisdom from on high,
And orders all things mightily;
To us the path of knowledge show,
And cause us in its ways to go.

Refrain:

O come thou dayspring, come and cheer

Our spirits by thy justice here

Disperse the gloomy clouds of night

And deaths dark shadows put to flight

Refrain:

O come desire of nations bind

All peoples in one heart and mind

From dusk tho brought us forth to light

deliver us from earthly strife.

Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel
Shall come to thee, O Israel. 

God Bless
