'Tis Christmas Eve!


Midnight Mass


by Rose Marchen




‘Tis the stroke of midnight, Christmas morn


Bells ring, Mass is begun


Know all ye lands that God’s Son is born





People all sing, the notes are airborne


Kyrie Eleison


‘Tis the stroke of midnight, Christmas morn





Cloths and candles the altar adorn


The priest prays with deacon


Know all ye lands that God’s Son is born





We remember Christ, tiny newborn


Come to save His children


‘Tis the stroke of midnight, Christmas morn





Praying, expressing feelings inborn


Awe for what God has done


Know all ye lands God’s Son is born





Sing Alleluia for Christ our dear Lord


Incense floats, bells are rung


‘Tis the stroke of midnight, Christmas morn


Know all ye lands that God’s Son is born.
