1 Big Band of Shepherds You take a big band of shepherds Standing on a hillside in the middle of the night I m talking big band of shepherds Can you imagine what it must have been like? They were watching their sheep with nothing to fear When all of a sudden an angel appeared They looked to the sky but found the light was blinding The glory of the Lord was definitely shining on a Big band of shepherds Standing on a hillside in the middle of the night I m talking big band of shepherds Can you imagine what it must have been like? The angel said, Be not afraid, for unto you is born this day In the city of David, you ll find a little baby, lying in a manger You ll find the savior waiting for a Big band of shepherds Standing on a hillside in the middle of the night I m talking big band of shepherds Can you imagine what it must have been like?

2 Hanging Around the Heavens From the start of all creation when God set us in the sky We have seen a million stories happen right before our eyes. We saw Abraham and Isaac, watched Noah build an ark. When Joseph started dreaming, we were watching from the dark. We ve got the best seat in the house. We can see what God is doing Watch where He is moving. If you could see what we have now, This view that we ve been given whoa It won t be hard to find us, He knows right where we ll be. We ve got the best seat in the house. We can see what God is doing Watch where He is moving. If you could see what we have now, This view that we ve been given whoa Since the moment God decided He would give the world His Son We ve been anxiously awaiting, wondering when the time would come. And if God can somehow use us, then whatever He might need,

3 I Believe I believe in God the Father I believe in Jesus the Son I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Trinity three in one. I believe Jesus came to earth to pay the price For all of our sins I believe Jesus died on the cross and rose to live again. That God is holy and faithful He is the great I am His truth will endure forever And on His Word I stand (music break) I believe, I believe, I believe, I believe I believe, I believe, I believe, I believe I believe when we follow Jesus We receive eternal life I believe He sent the Holy Spirit To guide us in our lives. I believe that Jesus is Lord He s in control of everything I believe He is coming again To reign for eternity. That God is holy and faithful He is the great I am His truth will endure forever And on His Word I stand I believe, I believe, I believe, I believe I believe, I believe!

4 Look Up Four, three, two, one Ready or not, the stars are coming out One by one, that s what I m talking bout Taking our place, we re waiting in a line We ll know what to do and we re ready to shine! Four, three, two, one Ready or not, another night is here Once it starts, we suddenly appear Twinkling lights, we re dancing in the breeze We ll put on a show for the people to see. This little light of mine, I m gonna let it shine. This little light of mine, I m gonna let it shine. Let it shine, let it shine, let it shine. Something s going on in the s tonight. Look up!

5 Shine On Us Lord, let your light, light of your face, shine on us. Lord, let your light, light of your face, shine on us. That we may be saved, that we may have life To find our way in the darkest night. Let your light shine on us. Lord, let your grace, grace from your hand, fall on us. That we may be saved, that we may have life To find our way in the darkest night. Let your grace fall on us. Noel, noel, noel, noel, Born is the king of Israel. Noel, noel, noel, noel, Born is the king of Israel. To find our way in the darkest night. Let your grace fall on us. Let your light shine on us.

6 Wee Three Kings We have seen a shining star leading us to Bethlehem. We have traveled from afar, bringing gifts to offer Him. We have come to We have come to See Him wrapped in swaddling clothes in a manger filled with hay We have come because we know Christ is born to us this day.

Christmas in black and white it s plain as day and night Look through God s Word and you ll see Christmas in black and white.
