All My Heart This Night Rejoices Composer(s): Johann Georg Ebeling; Paul Gerhardt Performer(s): The Cambridge Singers; and various other artists
All my heart this night rejoices As I hear Far and near Sweetest angel voices "Christ is born," their choirs are singing Till the air Everywhere Now with joy is ringing
Forth today the Conqueror goeth Who the foe, Sin and woe Death and hell, o'erthroweth God is man, man to deliver His dear Son Now is one With our blood forever
Shall we still dread God's displeasure Who, to save, Freely gave His most cherished Treasure? To redeem us, He hath given His own Son From the throne Of His might in heaven
Should He who Himself imparted Aught withhold From the fold Leave us broken-hearted? Should the Son of God not love us Who, to cheer Sufferers here Left His throne above us?
If our blessed Lord and Maker Hated men, Would He then Be of flesh partaker? If He in our woe delighted Would He bear All the care Of our race benighted?
He becomes the Lamb that taketh Sin away And for aye Full atonement maketh For our life His own He tenders And our race, By His grace Meet for glory renders
Hark! a voice from yonder manger Soft and sweet, Doth entreat "Flee from woe and danger Brethren, from all ills that grieve you You are feed; All you need I will surely give you"
Come, then, banish all your sadness One and all, Great and small Come with songs of gladness Love Him who with love is glowing Hail the Star, Near and far Light and joy bestowing
Ye whose anguish knew no measure Weep no more; See the door To celestial pleasure Cling to Him, for He will guide you Where no cross, Pain, or loss Can again betide you
Hither come, ye heavy-hearted Who for sin, Deep within Long and sore have smarted For the poisoned wound you're feeling Help is near, One is here Mighty for their healing
Hither come, ye poor and wretched Know His will Is to fill Every hand outstretched Here are riches without measure Here forget All regret Fill your hearts with treasure
Let me in my arms receive Thee On Thy breast Let me rest Savior, ne'er to leave Thee Since Thou hast Thyself presented Now to me, I shall be Evermore contented
Guilt no longer can distress me Son of God, Thou my load Bearest to release me Stain in me Thou findest never I am clean, All my sin Is removed forever
I am pure, in Thee believing From Thy store Evermore Righteous robes receiving In my heart I will enfold Thee Treasure rare, Let me there Loving, ever hold Thee
Dearest Lord, Thee will I cherish Though my breath Fail in death Yet I shall not perish But with Thee abide forever There on high, In that joy Which can vanish never
All I Want Is You This Christmas Composer(s): Martin Briley; Dana Calitri Performer(s): *Nsync
Snowy night Where it's warm here by the fire Here with you (here with you) I have all that I desire It's been a long year But somehow we got by Now it's Christmas Eve And love is on our side
