Annunciation  by Giovanni e Joe Joe 12 e 13 anni.

 

In the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent by God to a town in Galilee called Nazareth, to a virgin engaged to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David.  The virgin’s name was Mary.  And he came to her and said, “Greetings, favored one!  The Lord is with you.”  But she was much perplexed by his words and pondered what sort of greeting this might be.   The angel said to her, “Do not be afraid, Mary, for you have found favor with God.  And now, you will conceive in your womb and bear a son, and you will name him Jesus.  He will be great, and will be called the Son of the Most High, and the Lord God will give to him the throne of his ancestor David.  He will reign over the house of Jacob forever, and of his kingdom there will be no end.”   Mary said to the angel, “How can this be, since I am a virgin?”   The angel said to her, “The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you; therefore the child to be born will be holy; he will be called Son of God.  And now, your relative Elizabeth in her old age has also conceived a son; and this is the sixth month for her who was said to be barren.  For nothing will be impossible with God.”   Then Mary said, “Here I am, the servant of the Lord; let it be with me according to your word.”  Then the angel departed from her.

 

 Deck the Halls

 

Deck the halls with boughs of holly

Fa la la la la la la la la

'Tis the season to be jolly,

Fa la la la la la la la la

Don we now our gay apparel,

Fa la la la la la la la la

Troll the ancient Yuletide carol,

Fa la la la la la la la la.

 

Fast away the old year passes,

Fa la la la la la la la la

Hail the new, ye lads and lasses,

 Fa la la la la la la la la

Sing we joyous all together,

Fa la la la la la la la la

Heedless of the wind and weather,

Fa la la la la la la la la.

 

 

O Christmas Tree

 

O Christmas tree, O Christmas tree!
How are thy leaves so verdant!
O Christmas tree, O Christmas tree,
How are thy leaves so verdant!

Not only in the summertime,
But even in winter is thy prime.
O Christmas tree, O Christmas tree,
How are thy leaves so verdant!

O Christmas tree, O Christmas tree,
Much pleasure doth thou bring me!
O Christmas tree, O Christmas tree,
Much pleasure doth thou bring me!

For every year the Christmas tree,
Brings to us all both joy and glee.
O Christmas tree, O Christmas tree,
Much pleasure doth thou bring me!

O Christmas tree, O Christmas tree,
Thy candles shine out brightly!
O Christmas tree, O Christmas tree,
Thy candles shine out brightly!

Each bough doth hold its tiny light,
That makes each toy to sparkle bright.
O Christmas tree, O Christmas tree,
Thy candles shine out brightly!

 

Ariana- 8 anni:La visita di Maria a Santa Elisabetta.

 

 In quei giorni Maria si mise in viaggio verso la montagna e raggiunse in fretta una città di Giuda. Entrata nella casa di Zaccaria, salutò Elisabetta. (

Appena Elisabetta ebbe udito il saluto di Maria, il bambino le sussultò nel grembo. Elisabetta fu ripiena di Spirito Santo ed esclamò a gran voce: «Benedetta tu fra le donne, e benedetto il frutto del tuo grembo!»  «A che debbo che la madre del mio Signore venga a me? Ecco, appena la voce del tuo saluto è giunta ai miei orecchi, il bambino ha esultato di gioia nel mio grembo. Allora Maria disse: «L’anima mia magnifica il Signore, e il mio spirito esulta in Dio, mio Salvatore.

 

    

Poesie

THE LITTLE BLACK DOG

I wonder if Christ had  a little black dog

all curly and woolly like mine,With two silky ears and a nose round and wet,

And two tender brown eyes that shine? I' m sure if He had that little black dog

Knew right from the start He was God, That he needed no proof that God was divine.

But just worshipped the ground that He trod. I'm afraid that He hadn't because I have read

how He prayd in the garden alone.For all of His friend and disciples had fled.

Even Peter, the one called stone.And so I am sure  that little black dog

with a heart so tender and warm , would never have left Him to soffer alone.

The Heart

I bring you my heart
That is now filled with love,
Because God sent a baby
From Heaven above.

I bring you my heart
Its so happy within,
I know Jesus loves me -
He died for my sin.

I bring you my heart
You should give yours away,
Give it to Jesus -
And be saved today

 

 

Songs : O’ Holy Night –

 

 

O Holy Night
The stars are brightly shining
It is the night of our dear Savior's birth
Long lay the world in sin and error pining
'Til He appeared and the soul felt its worth
A thrill of hope, the weary world rejoices
For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn!
Fall on your knees,
O hear the angels' voices!
O night divine,
O night when Christ was born
O night divine,
O night divine,
O night divine!

Led by the light of faith serenely beaming,
With glowing hearts by His cradle we stand.
So led by light of a star sweetly gleaming,
Here came the wise men from Orient land.
The King of kings lay thus in lowly manger,
In all our trials born to be our Friend!
He knows our need; to our weakness is no stranger.
Behold your King; before Him lowly bend!
Behold your King; before Him lowly bend!

Truly He taught us to love one another;
His law is love and His Gospel is peace.
Chains shall He break for the slave is our brother
And in His Name all oppression shall cease.
Sweet hymns of joy in grateful chorus raise we,
Let all within us praise His holy Name!
Christ is the Lord! O praise His name forever!
His power and glory evermore proclaim!
His power and glory evermore proclaim!

 

 

Away in the Manger

 

 

Away in a manger, no crib for a bed,
the little Lord Jesus laid down his sweet head,
The stars in the bright sky looked down where he lay,
the little Lord Jesus asleep on the hay.

The cattle are lowing, the baby awakes,
but little Lord Jesus no crying he makes.
I love you, Lord Jesus; look down from the sky,
and stay by my side until morning is nigh.

Be near me, Lord Jesus, I ask you to stay
close by me forever, and love me, I pray.
Bless all the dear children in your tender care,
and take us to heaven, to live with you there

The Bell

Ring the bell!
Let the whole world know,
That Jesus was born
In a manger long ago.

Ring it loud,
So all can hear.
Go tell the world
That the Savior is near!

Ring it for the saved,
But especially for the lost!
Tell them Jesus loves them,
And died upon the cross.

Ring it with joy
When to your friends you say,
"He didn’t stay in the tomb -
He rose on the third day!"

We ring the bells with gladness
Now at Christmas, a time of joy.
We thank our heavenly father,
For Bethlehem’s baby boy!

 

Jessica: Annuncia i pastori.

 

When the angels  ad departed, the shepherds returned to Bethlehem, and there in a stable 

they found the infant Jesus, lying in a manger watched over  by His Mother Mary and

Joseph. And so great was the surprise and Joy of the shepherds that they went out  all

they met of the wondrous things which they had seen.
