Glory To God In The Highest

Colin Buchanan. © 2005 Universal Music

1. Augustus Caesar boss of the Romans
Wanted to know how his empire’s going
So Mary and Joseph hit the road had to go down
Bethlehem coz that Jo's own home town
No choice gotta head that way now
Even though Mary has a baby any day now

CHORUS
Glory to God in the highest
In the highest give glory to God

2. Now Joseph he was in the line of David
That's family it means they're related
When they finally get into Bethlehem
Well that inn's so full there's no room for them
They're out on the street
And time has come
For the birth of Mary's firstborn Son

3. So there in the dust and miles from home
The Son of God Most High is born
Mary wraps her baby in bits of cloth
And lies him in a manger that's an animal trough
A dusty dirty lonely birth
But Jesus Lord of heaven and earth

4. The shepherds out in the fields nearby
See the glory of the Lord shine in the sky
And they're filled with terror but the angel say
“Good news! Great joy! For born today
In the town of David Christ the Saviour
You'll find a baby lying in a manger”

5. Right then the shepherds see the sky explode
Angels singing in a heavenly host
“Glory to God and peace to men
when God's good favour rests on them”
The angels leave and the shepherds agree
“Let’s go to Bethlehem and see”

6. Well the shepherds saw Jesus and they spread
the word
Amazing everyone who heard
Mary treasured all the wondrous things
A virgin’s child the King of Kings
God's promised Son is the hope of men
Born that day in Bethlehem

The Magi

Colin Buchanan. © 2005 Universal Music

1. When Jesus was born in Bethlehem
The Magi rode into Jerusalem
Tired from their journey dusty and dry
Well they'd followed the star in the eastern sky
Followed the star in the eastern sky

2. Well they went to King Herod and they told
him the news
“That star marks the birth of the King of the Jews
Show us the place for far we have come
And we want to worship God's newborn Son
We want to worship God's newborn Son”

3. Herod gathered the teachers and the priests
for advice
“Where will this happen this birth of the Christ?”
(They said) “Up in Judea as it was foretold
By the prophet Isaiah in the days of old
The prophet Isaiah in the days of old”

4. Well move em out Magi, there's a new King to see
“When you find him,” said Herod
“report back to me
For I wish to worship this King if I can”
But King Herod was hatching a deadly plan
King Herod was hatching a deadly plan

5. The Magi followed the star and they were filled
with joy
And they found Mary and her precious boy
They bowed down right there and worshiped
the Christ
Laying treasures of gold and precious spice
Treasures of gold and precious spice

6. Well those wise men called Magi were warned
in a dream
Of evil King Herod's murderous scheme
They'd found the Messiah God's great high
priest
So they hitched up and rode back toward
the east
Hitched up and rode back toward the east

Those Magi were wise and one thing is true
If you want to be wise you will seek him, too
If you want to be wise you'll seek Jesus
You'll seek him too

The Greatest Christmas Gift

Colin Buchanan. © 2005 Universal Music

CHORUS 1
Whatta you want to get this year for Christmas?
What do you want beneath that Christmas tree?
What do you want stuffed in that Christmas
stocking?
What's the greatest Christmas gift that there
could be?

1. Is it on the TV
Or is it a CD
Or maybe a DVD that everybody wants?
Is it a new pet
Some sort of sports set
Or something you've been wishing for
And dreaming of all year?

CHORUS 1

2. Well is it a bike to ride
Some sort of super slide
Or something that you like that's really really cool?
One of those action toys
Does it make a lot of noise
Have you made yourself a little list
Checked it once or twice?

CHORUS 1
Whatta you want to get this year for Christmas?
What do you want beneath that Christmas tree?
What do you want stuffed in that Christmas
stocking?
What's the greatest Christmas gift that there
could be?

3. What if God gave us
A King to save us
And forgave us for all our sin and greed?
Well that's what he's done
By sending his own Son
For unto us a child is born to us a Son is given

CHORUS 2
Jesus is the greatest gift at Christmas
You won't find him underneath that Christmas tree
Cos most of all us sinners need a Saviour
Come and see the greatest Christmas gift
Look to Jesus Christ and live,
Jesus is the greatest gift that there could ever be.

Jesus Saves! Jesus Saves!

(To the tune of "Jingle Bells")
Colin Buchanan. © 2005 Universal Music

1. The world belongs to God
He spoke and there it was
Though it was very good
It all went bad because
The man that God had made
And the woman there with him
Turned their back on God to get
A deadly taste of sin (But)

CHORUS
Jesus saves! Jesus saves!
Jesus is the Way
Jesus is the Saviour
You can come to Him today - Hey!
Jesus saves! Jesus saves!
People from their sin
You will find forgiveness
When you put your trust in Him

2. Well if you look around
You’ll see how sin has spread
Turning light to dark
And living things to dead
But God still rules the world
He always had a plan
To send his Son to save us
In the likeness of a man

CHORUS

3. Well if you come to God
(You still have time you know)
He’ll wash your sinful heart
And make it white as snow
Come taste eternal life
And death will have no sting
All who trust in Jesus are
The children of the King

Crown him as your King
Mighty God and Saviour
Lord of everything
In love he came
To bear our shame
And break the power of sin

Will you come to Jesus?
Crown him as your King

2. Will you come to Jesus?
He will set you free
Break the power of darkness
Make the blind to see
Do not fear can you hear
Him calling “Come to me”

Will you come to Jesus?
He will set you free

Who Is He In Yonder Stall

Benjamin R Hanby, 1833-1867

1. Who is he in yonder stall
At his feet the shepherds fall?
Who is he in deep distress
Fasting in the wilderness?

CHORUS
Tis the Lord O wondrous story
Tis the Lord the King of Glory
At his feet we humbly fall
Crown him crown him Lord of all

2. Who is he the people bless
For his words of gentleness?
Who is he to whom they bring
All the sick and sorrowing?

3. Who is he that stands and weeps
At the grave where Lazarus sleeps?
Who is he the gathering throng
Greet with loud triumphant song?

4. Low at midnight who is he
Praise in dark Gethsemane?
Who is he on yonder tree
Dies in grief and agony?

The Word Became Flesh

Words and Music by Colin Buchanan. © 2000 Rondor Music (Aust)

Chorus
The Word became flesh and dwelt among us
Oh you’d better believe it
The light of grace to ones in darkness
Oh you’d better believe it
All the glory of the One and Only
Wrapped in perfect humanity
Oh – Grace and truth
Has come through Jesus
Oh you’d better believe it

1. The one who made every bone and muscle
Who was from the beginning at the Father’s side
The one who’s the giver of light and blessing
Was the one the world wouldn’t recognise

2. The endless power of the boundless Saviour
The blood and pain of human birth
Messiah in the line of David
Son of Joseph, God on earth!

Real Hope

Words and Music by Colin Buchanan. © 2000 Rondor Music (Aust)

1. It was a real birth in real stable
In a real dusty Judean town
And a real mother nursed her precious baby
And a bunch of wide-eyed shepherds gathered
round
And real angles sang “Glory!”
For real hope was born that day.

Chorus
I bet all I have on Jesus
I will throw myself on him
For the one who died a real death, for real sin
I bet all I have on Jesus
And throughout eternity
I will marvel at the real hope
That my Saviour won for me

2. It was a real life
He had real friends
He walked shoulder to shoulder with the lost
He wept real tears
For the fallen ones
And he anguished over sin's dreadful cost
And on a real cross he cried, "Forgive them!"
As his real life drained away.

Chorus

3. I have real fears
I do real sin
And I hurt the ones I cherish and adore
But the real mercy
Of the true God
Sees the filthy fallen purchased and restored
And I cry "My God - O fill me
With a heart completely yours!"

Chorus

Hebrew 1:1-2

Words and Music by Colin Buchanan. © 1996 Rondor Music (Aust)

In the past God has spoken
To our forefathers through the prophets
At many times and in various ways
But in these last days he has spoken
To us by his Son
Whom he appointed heir of all things
And through whom the universe was made
Hebrews 1, 1 and 2.

Jesus Is No Fairytale

Words and Music by Colin Buchanan. © 2002 Rondor Music (Aust)

Well you know the story of the 3 bears
And the girl called Goldilocks
Who came in from the woods and gobbled
All their porridge up
Or the story about Snow White
And the 7 dwarves she knew
Well one thing about fairy tales
None of them are true (But...)

CHORUS
Jesus is no fairytale
He’s real as real can be
No one made him up
No he’s as real as you and me
He’s the mighty Son of God
His word will never fail.....
So put your trust in Jesus
Cos he’s no fairytale

2. Once upon a time,
There is a tale they often tell
‘bout Jack and that big beanstalk
And how the giant fell
And then there’s Cinderella
And the handsome prince she wed
Well they’re just stories somebody
Just cooked up in their head (But...)

3. Well there’s nothing wrong with stories
Those tales of make-believe
Like mean old Rumplestiltskin
Or the Princess and the Pea
Just remember that the Bible’s
Not like fairytales you’ve heard
Cos the Bible’s how God’s speaks to us
the Bible is God’s Word (And...)

CHORUS
Jesus is no fairytale
He’s real as real can be
No one made him up
No he’s as real as you and me
He’s the mighty Son of God
His word will never fail.....
So put your trust in Jesus
Put all your trust in Jesus
The Living, risen Jesus
Cos he’s no fairytale!
He’s no fairytale!

Follow The Saviour

1. Grown ups from Wagga Wagga
Kids from Albany
Mums and dads from Wangaratta
Folks from Werris Creek...

CHORUS
Follow the Saviour, Jesus the King
Glorify the Lord of everyone and everything.

2. Sinners from Indooroopilly
Saints from Engadine
Though yours sins be red as scarlet
God can wash you clean.

3. To the sad ones in Coolangatta
The weak in Dubbo West
Jesus calls, ‘Come take my yoke
And I will give you rest.’

4. The proud, the poor, the sick, the rich
To all across this land
Everlasting hope is yours
If you’ll but take his hand
