Parents,
We are SO excited about our 2023 Kids Christmas program! The joy your kids bring to church and Christmas is a powerful combination. This year, we are doing two songs and several speaking parts.
Our Sunday school teachers will be working on teaching the songs and motions to your kids on Sunday mornings, but please listen to the songs with your kids at home so they are comfortable singing along (loudly!) to the music!
Key Dates:
- December 12th - Practice at the church at 6:00 p.m.
- December 17th - Kid's Christmas Program at Restoration Church at 10 a.m!
- Please arrive by 8:45 so we can do another run-through at 9a.
Thank you for your help in making our Kid's Christmas Program a success!
Do You Hear What I Hear
Verse 1
Said the night wind to the little lamb
Do you see what I see?
(Do you see what I see?) Way up in the sky, little lamb Do you see what I see? (Do you see what I see?) A star, a star, dancing in the night With a tail as big as a kite With a tail as big as a kite
Verse 2
Said the little lamb to the shepherd boy Do you hear what I hear? (Do you hear what I hear?) Ringing through the sky, shepherd boy Do you hear what I hear? (Do you hear what I hear?)
A song, a song high above the trees With a voice as big as the sea With a voice as big as the sea
Verse 3
Said the shepherd boy to the mighty king Do you know what I know? (Do you know what I know?) In your palace warm, mighty king Do you know what I know? (Do you know what I know?)
A Child, a Child shivers in the cold Let us bring him silver and gold Let us bring him silver and gold
Verse 4
Said the king to the people everywhere
Listen to what I say! (Listen to what I say!) Pray for peace, people, everywhere Listen to what I say! (Listen to what I say!) The Child, the Child sleeping in the night He will bring us goodness and light He will bring us goodness and light
It's Christmas
Verse 1
Away in a manger, no crib for a bed The little Lord Jesus laid down His sweet head The stars in the sky looked down where He lay The little Lord Jesus asleep on the hay
Verse 2
The cattle are lowing, the baby awakes But little Lord Jesus, no crying He makes I love thee Lord Jesus, look down from the sky And stay by my cradle 'til morning is nigh
Chorus
It's Christmas The angels are singing And I know the reason The Savior is born It's Christmas The bells are ringing And I feel like shouting Joy to the world
Verse 3
Be near me, Lord Jesus I ask thee to stay Close by me forever and love me I pray And bless all the dear children in thy tender care And fit us for heaven to live with thee there
Chorus
It's Christmas The angels are singing And I know the reason The Savior is born Yes, it's Christmas The bells are ringing And I feel like shouting Joy to the world
Bridge
Go tell it on the mountain Over the hills and everywhere Go tell it on the mountain that Jesus Christ is born
Chorus
It's Christmas The angels are singing And I know the reason The Savior is born Yes, it's Christmas The bells are ringing And I feel like shouting Joy to the world Joy to the world Oh, joy to the world
