Tune: Sussex Carol
('On Christmas night all Christians sing')
*********
O spread the news of Christmas cheer
The season once again is here
O spread the news of Christmas cheer
The season once again is here
Time when our Saviour Christ was born
Rejoice you now, no longer mourn
Light of the world. come down to earth
Through Mary. lowly virgin birth
Light of the world. come down to earth
Through Mary. lowly virgin birth
Power of God o'ershadowing
Her, impossible be no thing
Jesus, He be Emmanuel
'Tis God with us, the good news tell
Jesus, He be Emmanuel
'Tis God with us, the good news tell
Ne'er now shall leave us comfortless
Sends His Spirit, and does us bless
Christ's coming to a world of sin
To cleanse us, make us new within
Christ's coming to a world of sin
To cleanse us, make us new within
We too can be born from above
By His Spirit sent by His love
