Christmas Carol Lyrics,
Sheet Music, and Guitar Tabs

Christmas carol lyrics celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ.

Although we do not know when Jesus's birth happened, the medieval church fastened upon a pagan holiday in an attempt to transform the hearts of communities worshiping "the old gods", in the old ways.

Coventry Carol sheet music for Christmas

This is the story of King Herod's rage descending upon the baby boys of Bethlehem.

It is a sad story, like many in the Bible, but it is a gentle introduction to this part of Jesus' story.

Not originally considered a part of the Christmas story, this song has become so.

Coventry Carol is also known as "Lully, Lullay" and "Lulla, Lullay." 

This is a very satisfying piano arrangement.

A lovely song for voice and piano about when the angel Gabriel brought God's message to Mary, the mother of Jesus.

Gabriel's Message Lyrics and Sheet Music

This is the story of the angel Gabriel appearing to the young woman Mary, who would become the mother of the Messiah.

Isaiah 7:14: Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign; Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel.

A very lovely minor melody.

This song tells the story of the shepherds who heard the angel's message of Jesus's birth.

A Favorite Bible Teacher

Dr. Chuck Missler, now in heaven, for many years taught the Bible like no other teacher I've ever heard.  In this video, "The Christmas Story Part 1", he explores IN DEPTH the genealogy of Jesus Christ, and the history of some of the wrinkles along the way to His birth.

Hidden Codes

Hear Dr. Missler explain how, in the first chapter of Matthew, every word, sentence, paragraph, and more add up to the number seven (7).  Why is this significant?  There is no doctrine or meaning here, perhaps, but it is evidence of a source outside of our world for the writing!

Sevens in the Bible

Listen to this message... it will fill you with WONDER at the plan of God.  As one video commenter states:

"One of Greatest Bible Teachers of all time. Only eternity will reveal his impact on the millions of lives he has touched."

Part 2 of Dr. Missler's message

Contemporary celebrations of Christmas

Truly, it is difficult to untangle a Christian message from current Christmas-time festivities, gift-giving, and community goings-on, but a thin thread can often still be seen woven through the densest materialistic cloth.

God is the inventor of beauty and joy!  Though an Enemy tries to twist all things away from their true purpose and bend "Good" into "Not Good", God is stronger.

"God's Grandeur" by Gerard Manley Hopkins captures this deep truth:

The world is charged with the grandeur of God.

    It will flame out, like shining from shook foil;

    It gathers to a greatness, like the ooze of oil

Crushed. Why do men then now not reck his rod?

Generations have trod, have trod, have trod;

    And all is seared with trade; bleared, smeared with toil;

    And wears man's smudge and shares man's smell: the soil

Is bare now, nor can foot feel, being shod.

And for all this, nature is never spent;

    There lives the dearest freshness deep down things;

And though the last lights off the black West went

    Oh, morning, at the brown brink eastward, springs —

Because the Holy Ghost over the bent

    World broods with warm breast and with ah! bright wings.
