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.

Radiant beams from thy holy face,
with the dawn of redeeming grace,
Jesus, Lord, at thy birth, Jesus, Lord at thy birth.

Yet in the dark streets shineth The everlasting Light;
The hopes and fears of all the years Are met in thee tonight.

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 all on earth.

V./ In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. R./ Amen.
V./ The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the communion of the
Holy Spirit be with you all. R./ And with your spirit.
I believe in one God, the Father almighty, maker of heaven and earth, of all things
visible and invisible. I believe in one Lord Jesus Christ, the Only Begotten Son of
God, born of the Father before all ages. God from God, Light from Light, true
God from true God, begotten, not made, consubstantial with the Father; through
him all things were made. For us men and for our salvation he came down from
heaven,
The Penitential Act
(genuflect on one knee) and by the Holy Spirit was incarnate of the Virgin Mary, and
Gloria
For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate, he suffered death and was
buried, and rose again on the third day in accordance with the Scriptures. He
ascended into heaven and is seated at the right hand of the Father. He will come
again in glory to judge the living and the dead and his kingdom will have no end.
I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life, who proceeds from the
Father and the Son, who with the Father and the Son is adored and glorified, who
has spoken through the prophets. I believe in one, holy, catholic and apostolic
Church. I confess one baptism for the forgiveness of sins and I look forward to the
resurrection of the dead and the life of the world to come. Amen.

Go Tell It on the Mountain
Spiritual
Go tell it on the mountain, over the hills and ev’rywhere;
Go tell it on the mountain that Jesus Christ is born!
1.
While shepherds kept their watching o’er silent flocks by night,
Behold throughout the heavens there shone a holy light.
2.
The shepherds feared and trembled when lo! above the earth
Rang out the angel chorus that hailed our Savior’s birth.
3.
And lo, when they had heard it, they all bowed down and prayed;
They traveled on together to where the Babe was laid.
4.
Down in a lowly manger the humble Christ was born,
And God sent us salvation that blessed Christmas morn.
V./ Pray, brothers and sisters that my sacrifice
and yours may be acceptable to God, the almighty Father.
R./ May the Lord accept the sacrifice at your hands for the praise and glory of his
name, for our good and the good of all his holy Church.
Preface Dialogue
V./ The Lord be with you. R./ And with your spirit.
V./ Lift up your hearts. R./ We lift them up to the Lord.
Homily
Today as we recite the Creed, the Church invites us to genuflect where indicated in order to
show that we accept the great reality of the Incarnation of the Son of God.

X Musical Prelude X
Ave Maria [Choir]
Franz Biebl (1906-2001)
Angelus Domini nuntiavit Mariae et concepit de
Spiritu Sancto.
The angel of the Lord declared unto Mary, and
she conceived by the Holy Spirit.
Ave Maria, gratia plena, Dominus tecum;
benedicta tu in mulieribus, et benedictus fructus
ventris tui Jesus.
Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee.
Blessed art thou amongst women, and blessed is
the fruit of thy womb, Jesus.
Maria dixit: Ecce ancilla Domini; fiat mihi
secundum verbum tuum.
Mary said: Behold the handmaid of the Lord;
let it be done unto me according to your Word.
Et verbum caro factum est et habitavit in nobis.
And the Word was made flesh and dwelt among
us.
Sancta Maria, mater Dei ora pro nobis
peccatoribus, Sancta Maria, ora pro nobis,
nunc et in hora mortis nostrae. Amen.
Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us
sinners, now and at the hour of our death.
Amen.
God Rest You Merry, Gentlemen
1. God rest you merry, gentlemen, Let nothing you dismay,
For Jesus Christ our Savior Was born upon this day,
To save us all from Satan’s power When we were gone astray.
O tidings of comfort and joy, comfort and joy;
O tidings of comfort and joy!
2. In Bethlehem in Judah This blessed babe was born,
And laid within a manger Upon this blessed morn:
For which his mother Mary Did nothing take in scorn.
O tidings of comfort and joy, comfort and joy;
O tidings of comfort and joy!
3. From God our great Creator A blessed angel came,
And unto certain shepherds Brought tidings of the same,
How that in Bethlehem was born The Son of God by name.
O tidings of comfort and joy, comfort and joy;
O tidings of comfort and joy!
4. The shepherds at those tidings Rejoiced much in mind,
And left their flocks afeeding In tempest, storm, and wind,
And went to Bethlehem straightway, The blessed babe to find.
O tidings of comfort and joy, comfort and joy;
O tidings of comfort and joy!
5. Now to the Lord sing praises, All you within this place,
And with true love and charity Each other now embrace;
This holy tide of Christmas All others shall replace.
O tidings of comfort and joy, comfort and joy;
O tidings of comfort and joy!
Lo, How a Rose E’er Blooming [Choir]
Hugo Distler (1908-42)
Lo, how a Rose e’er blooming From tender stem hath sprung!
Of Jesse’s lineage coming As seers of old have sung. It came, a blossom bright,
Amid the cold of winter, When half spent was the night.
Isaiah ‘twas fortold it, The Rose I have in mind,
With Mary we behold it, The Virgin Mother kind. To show God’s love aright,
She bore to us a Savior, When half spent was the night.
O Flower, whose fragrance tender With sweetness fills the air,
Dispel in glorious splendor The darkness ev’rywhere; True man, yet very God,
From sin and death now save us, And share our ev’ry load.
It Came Upon the Midnight Clear
Carol
1. It came upon the midnight clear, That glorious song of old,
From angels bending near the earth To touch their harps of gold:
‘Peace on the earth, good will to all From heaven’s all gracious King’;
The world in solemn stillness lay, To hear the angels sing.
2. Still through the cloven skies they come, With peaceful wings unfurled,
And still their heav’nly music floats O’er all the weary world:
Above its sad and lowly plains They bend on hov’ring wing,
And ever o’er its Babel sounds The blessed angels sing.
3. Yet with the woes of sin and strife, The world has suffered long;
Beneath the heav’nly hymn have rolled Two thousand years of wrong;
And warring humankind hears not The tidings which they bring;
O hush the noise and cease your strife And hear the angels sing.
4. For, lo, the days are hastening on, By prophets seen of old,
When with the evercircling years Shall come the time foretold,
When peace shall over all the earth Its ancient splendors fling,
And all the world give back the song Which now the angels sing.
Jesus Christ the Apple Tree [Choir]
Elizabeth Poston (1905-87)
The tree of life my soul hath seen, Laden with fruit and always green:
The trees of nature fruitless be Compared with Christ the apple tree.
His beauty doth all things excel: By faith I know, but ne’er can tell
The glory which I now can see In Jesus Christ the apple tree.
For happiness I long have sought, And pleasure dearly I have bought:
I missed of all; but now I see ‘Tis found in Christ the apple tree.
I’m weary with my former toil, Here I will sit and rest awhile:
Under the shadow I will be, Of Jesus Christ the apple tree.
This fruit doth make my soul to thrive, It keeps my dying faith alive;
Which makes my soul in haste to be With Jesus Christ the apple tree.

Homily
Profession of Faith
Tonight as we recite the Creed, the Church invites us to genuflect where indicated in order to
show that we accept the great reality of the Incarnation of the Son of God.
I believe in one God, the Father almighty, maker of heaven and earth, of all things
visible and invisible. I believe in one Lord Jesus Christ, the Only Begotten Son of
God, born of the Father before all ages. God from God, Light from Light, true
God from true God, begotten, not made, consubstantial with the Father; through
him all things were made. For us men and for our salvation he came down from
heaven,
[genuflect] and by the Holy Spirit was incarnate of the Virgin Mary, and became
man.
For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate, he suffered death and was
buried, and rose again on the third day in accordance with the Scriptures. He
ascended into heaven and is seated at the right hand of the Father. He will come
again in glory to judge the living and the dead and his kingdom will have no end.
I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life, who proceeds from the
Father and the Son, who with the Father and the Son is adored and glorified, who
has spoken through the prophets. I believe in one, holy, catholic and apostolic
Church. I confess one baptism for the forgiveness of sins and I look forward to the
resurrection of the dead and the life of the world to come. Amen.

Preparation of the Gifts
O Holy Night [Choir]
Adolphe Adam, arr. Luckner
O holy night! The stars are brightly shining, it is the night of our dear Saviour’s birth.
Long lay the world in sin and error pining, ‘til He appeared and the soul felt its worth.
A thrill of hope the weary world rejoices, for yonder breaks a new and glorious morn.
Fall on your knees! O hear the angels’ voices! O night divine, O night when Christ was born;
O night divine, O night, O night Divine.
Led by the light of Faith serenely beaming, with glowing hearts by His cradle we stand.
So led by light of a star sweetly gleaming, here come the wise men from Orient land.
The King of Kings lay thus in lowly manger; in all our trials born to be our friend.
He knows our need, to our weakness is no stranger, Behold your King! Before Him lowly bend!
Behold your King, Before Him lowly bend!
Truly He taught us to love one another; His law is love and His gospel is peace.
Chains shall He break for the slave is our brother; and in His name all oppression shall cease.
Sweet hymns of joy in grateful chorus raise we, let all within us praise His holy name.
Christ is the Lord! O praise His Name forever, His power and glory evermore proclaim.
His power and glory evermore proclaim.
V./ Pray, brothers and sisters that my sacrifice and
yours may be acceptable to God, the almighty Father.
R./ May the Lord accept the sacrifice at your hands for the praise and glory of his
name, for our good and the good of all his holy Church.

Mater ora filium, ut post hoc exilium nobis donet gaudium, beatorum omnium.
(Mother, pray thy Son, that after this exile, may grant us the joy of all the blessed ones.)
Fair maiden, who is this bairn that thou bearest in thine arm?
Sir, it is a Kinges Son that in heav’n above doth won.
Man to Father he hath none, but himself God alone;
Of a maid he would be born, to save mankind that was forlorn.
Three kings brought him presents, gold, myrrh, and frankincense,
To my Son full of might, King of kings and lord of right.
Fair maiden, pray for us unto thy Son, sweet Jesus,
That he will send us of his grace in heav’n on high to have a place.

The Penitential Act
V./ Brothers and sisters, let us acknowledge our sins,
and so prepare ourselves to celebrate the sacred mysteries.
R./ I confess to almighty God and to you, my brothers and sisters,
that I have greatly sinned, in my thoughts and in my words,
in what I have done and in what I have failed to do,
(and, striking their breast, they say):
through my fault, through my fault, through my most grievous fault;
therefore I ask blessed Mary, ever Virgin, all the Angels and Saints, and you, my
brothers and sisters, to pray for me to the Lord our God.

Homily
Profession of Faith
Today as we recite the Creed, the Church invites us to genuflect where indicated in order to
show that we accept the great reality of the Incarnation of the Son of God.
I believe in one God, the Father almighty, maker of heaven and earth, of all things
visible and invisible. I believe in one Lord Jesus Christ, the Only Begotten Son of
God, born of the Father before all ages. God from God, Light from Light, true
God from true God, begotten, not made, consubstantial with the Father; through
him all things were made. For us men and for our salvation he came down from
heaven,
[genuflect] and by the Holy Spirit was incarnate of the Virgin Mary, and became man.
For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate, he suffered death and was
buried, and rose again on the third day in accordance with the Scriptures. He
ascended into heaven and is seated at the right hand of the Father. He will come
again in glory to judge the living and the dead and his kingdom will have no end.
I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life, who proceeds from the
Father and the Son, who with the Father and the Son is adored and glorified, who
has spoken through the prophets. I believe in one, holy, catholic and apostolic
Church. I confess one baptism for the forgiveness of sins and I look forward to the
resurrection of the dead and the life of the world to come. Amen.

O Holy Night [Choir: 11 am]
Adolphe Adam, arr. Luckner
O holy night! The stars are brightly shining, it is the night of our dear Saviour’s birth.
Long lay the world in sin and error pining, ‘til He appeared and the soul felt its worth.
A thrill of hope the weary world rejoices, for yonder breaks a new and glorious morn.
Fall on your knees! O hear the angels’ voices! O night divine, O night when Christ was born;
O night divine, O night, O night Divine.
Led by the light of Faith serenely beaming, with glowing hearts by His cradle we stand.
So led by light of a star sweetly gleaming, here come the wise men from Orient land.
The King of Kings lay thus in lowly manger; in all our trials born to be our friend.
He knows our need, to our weakness is no stranger, Behold your King! Before Him lowly bend!
Behold your King, Before Him lowly bend!
Truly He taught us to love one another; His law is love and His gospel is peace.
Chains shall He break for the slave is our brother; and in His name all oppression shall cease.
Sweet hymns of joy in grateful chorus raise we, let all within us praise His holy name.
Christ is the Lord! O praise His Name forever, His power and glory evermore proclaim.
His power and glory evermore proclaim.
V./ Pray, brothers and sisters that my sacrifice and
yours may be acceptable to God, the almighty Father.
R./ May the Lord accept the sacrifice at your hands for the praise and glory of his
name, for our good and the good of all his holy Church.
Preface Dialogue
V./ The Lord be with you. R./ And with your spirit.
V./ Lift up your hearts. R./ We lift them up to the Lord.
V./ Let us give thanks to the Lord our God. R./ It is right and just.

Profession of Faith
I believe in one God, the Father almighty, maker of heaven and earth, of all things visible
and invisible. I believe in one Lord Jesus Christ, the Only Begotten Son of God, born of
the Father before all ages. God from God, Light from Light, true God from true God,
begotten, not made, consubstantial with the Father; through him all things were made.
For us men and for our salvation he came down from heaven,
[bow] and by the Holy Spirit was incarnate of the Virgin Mary, and became man.
For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate, he suffered death and was buried, and
rose again on the third day in accordance with the Scriptures. He ascended into heaven
and is seated at the right hand of the Father. He will come again in glory to judge the
living and the dead and his kingdom will have no end. I believe in the Holy Spirit, the
Lord, the giver of life, who proceeds from the Father and the Son, who with the Father
and the Son is adored and glorified, who has spoken through the prophets. I believe in
one, holy, catholic and apostolic Church. I confess one baptism for the forgiveness of
sins and I look forward to the resurrection of the dead and the life of the world to come.
Amen.
