Arise and Sing This Christmas Morn

Words by Marvin K. Gardner

Music by Vanja Y. Watkins

1. Arise and sing this Christmas morn, Alleluia!
For unto us a Child is born, Alleluia!
And raise your praises unto heav’n, Alleluia!
For unto us a Son is giv’n. Alleluia!

2. Come celebrate His wond’rous birth, Alleluia!
For Christ shall govern all the earth, Alleluia!
With heart and mind and strength proclaim: Alleluia!
For Wonderful shall be His name, Alleluia!

3. Our Counsellor, our mighty God, Alleluia!
Our Father, our redeeming Lord, Alleluia!
Come worship Christ, the Prince of Peace, Alleluia!
May our rejoicing never cease, Alleluia!

Based on Isa. 9:6
