glade jul (norwegian - bokmål)
T.B.S. Ingemann (1850)
GDG
glade jol (nynorsk)
Ingemann (1850) & O. Bernt Støylen (1905)
(intro)
Version nynorsk
Glade jul, hellige jul!
Glade jol, heilage jol!
Engler daler ned i skjul.
Englar kjem frå Guds kongestol.
Hit de flyver med paradis grønt,
Blomar ber dei til paradis,
hvor de ser hva for Gud er skjønt.
Fint og fagert dei syng Guds pris.
Lønnlig i blant oss de går.
Løynleg ikring oss dei går.
Lønnlig i blant oss de går.
Løynleg ikring oss dei går.
Julefryd, evig fryd,
Jolebod, gledeleg bod
hellig sang med himmelsk lyd!
Tonar til oss med himmelljod,
Det er engler som hyrdene så,
Song av englar som hyrdingar såg
dengang Herren i krybben lå.
Den gong Jesus i krubba låg.
Evig er englenes sang.
Songen av englar er sæl.
Evig er englenes sang.
Songen av englar er sæl.
Fred på jord, fryd på jord,
Fred på jord, frygd på jord!
Jesusbarnet i blant oss bor.
Jesusbarnet det er vår bror.
Engler synger om barnet så smukt,
Englar syng um hans herlegdom.
han har himmeriks dør oppslukt.
Han hev reidt oss i himmelen rom.
Salig er englenes sang.
Songen av englar er sæl.
Salig er englenes sang.
Songen av englar er sæl.
Salig fred, himmelsk fred,
Sæle fred, himmelsk fred
toner julenatt herned.
Jolekvelden til jord kom ned.
Engler bringer til store og små
Englar syng um den fred dei såg,
bud om ham som i krybben lå.
Syng om han som i krubba låg.
Fryd deg hver sjel han har frelst!
Gled deg, kvar sjel han hev frelst!
Fryd deg hver sjel han har frelst!
Gled deg, kvar sjel han hev frelst!
stille natt
stille natt
Stille natt! Heilage natt!
Stille natt - heilage natt!
Alle sov, eine att
Alt har svevn og mørker tatt.
sit dei unge, dei utvalde to,
Trufast vaker dei heilage to,
ser på barnet, så lukkeleg no:
varsamt voggar dei barnet til ro.
Sov i himmelsæl ro!
Jorda tar himlen i famn.
Sov i himmelsæl ro!
Jorda tar himlen i famn.
Stille natt! Heilage natt!
Stille natt - heilage natt!
Hyrdingar får høyra radt:
Barnet er vår største skatt.
Frå den himmelske englehær
Hyrding vaknar av gåtefull klang.
tonar til dei frå fjern og nær:
Natta tonar av englanes sang:
Erik Hillestad (1991)
grandma got run over by a reindeer G
Grandma got run over by a reindeer,
C
walking home from our house Christmas Eve D
You can say there’s no such thing as Santa G
D
G
but as for me and grandpa we believe Em
D
She’d been drinking too much egg nog G
and we warned her not to go C
but she forgot her medication G
D
G
and she wandered out the door into the snow When we found her Christmas morning at the scene of the attack there were hoofprints on her forehead and incriminating claw marks on her back CHORUS It’s not Christmas without grandma all the family’s dressed in black and we just cant help but wonder should we open up her gifts or send them back! CHORUS Now we’re all so proud of grandpa he’s been taking this so well see him in there watching football drinking beer and playing cards with cousin Mel CHORUS Now the goose is on the table and the pudding made of fig and the blue and silver candles that would just have matched the hair in grandma’s wig CHORUS I’ve warned all my friends and neighbours better watch out for your selfs they should never give a license to a man who drives a sleigh and plays with elfs! CHORUS

but if you kissed me now, I know you’d fool me again. CHORUS A crowded room, friends with tires eyes, I’m hiding from you and our soul of ice. My God! I thought you were someone to rely on. Me? I guess I was a shoulder to cry on. A face on a lover with fire in the heart, a man undercover but you tore me apart. Now I’ve found a real love, you’ll never fool me again. CHORUS

sainte nuit
voici noël, ô douce nuit!
GDG
M.Melley-Rochat 1864
(intro)
Hymnal of swiss reformed church
Ô nuit de paix, Sainte nuit
Voici Noël, ô douce nuit!
Dans le ciel l’astre luit
L’étoile est là, qui nous conduit:
Dans les champs tout repose en paix
Allons donc tous, avec les mages,
Mais soudain dans l’air pur et frais
Porter à Jésus nos hommages
Le brillant coeur des anges
Car l’enfant nous est né,
Aux bergers apparaît
Le Fils nous est donné!
Ô nuit de foi, Sainte nuit
Voici Noël, ô quel beau jour!
Les bergers sont instruits
Jésus est né! quel grand amour!
Confiants dans la voix des cieux
C’est pour nous qu’il vient sur la terre,
Ils s’en vont adorer leur Dieu
Qu’il prend sur lui notre misère.
Et Jésus, en échange
Un Sauveur nous est né,
Leur sourit radieux
Le Fils nous est donné!
Ô nuit d’amour, Sainte nuit
Voici Noël!ne craignons pas,
Dans l’étable, aucun bruit
Car Dieu nous dit: «Paix ici-bas!
Sur la paille, est couché l’enfant
Bienveillance envers tous les hommes!»
Que la Vierge endort en chantant
Pour nous aussi, tels que nous sommes,
Il repose en ses langes
Un Sauveur nous est né,
Son Jésus ravissant
Le Fils nous est donné!
Ô nuit d’espoir, Sainte nuit
Nuit de Paix
L’espérance a reluit
Nuit de Paix, Sainte Nuit.
Le Sauveur de la terre est né
Dans l’étable aucun bruit.
C’est à nous que Dieu l’a donné
Dans le ciel tout repose en paix.
Célébrons ses louanges
Mais soudain dans l’air pur et frais.
Gloire au Verbe incarné
Le brillant coeur des anges Aux bergers apparaît.
douce nuit! sainte nuit!
Denereaz
Belle nuit
Douce nuit! Sainte nuit!
Belle nuit, sante nuit
Tout se tait, l’heure fuit.
Tout s’endort, plus de bruit
Seuls Joseph et Marie humblement,
Veile seul, le couple sacré
sont penches au berceau de l’Enfant.
Doux enfant aux fins checeux
Dors, Jesus radieux!
sous ces yeux vigilants
Dors, Jesus radieux!
sous ces yeux vigilants
Douce nuit! Sainte nuit!
Belle nuit, sante nuit
Rois, bergers vont a Lui.
Dans les champs, les bergers
L’air s’emplit de cantiques joyeux,
Par les anges advertis

CHORUS This star drew nigh to the northwest, O’er Bethlehem it took it rest, And there it did both stop and stay Right over the place where Jesus lay. CHORUS Then entered in those wise men three Full reverently upon their knee, And offered there in his presence Their gold, and myrrh, and frakincense.

and the music of the season. A
And the merchants’ windows are all bright D
with the faces of the children. A
And the families hurrying to their homes D
A
as the sky darkens and freezes. D
A
They’ll be gathering around the hearths and tales, E
giving thanks for all god’s graces D
E
A
and the birth of the rebel Jesus. A
Well they call him by the prince of peace D
E
And they call him by the savior A
And they pray to him upon the seas D
And in every bold endeavor
A
As they fill his churches with their pride and gold D
A
And their faith in him increases D
A
But they’ve turned the nature that I worshipped in E
From a temple to a robber’s den D
E
A
In the words of the rebel Jesus A
We guard our world with locks and guns D
E
And we guard our fine possessions A
And once a year when christmas comes D
We give to our relations
A
And perhaps we give a little to the poor D
A
If the generosity should seize us D
A
But if any one of us should interfere E
In the business of why they are poor D
E
A
They get the same as the rebel Jesus A
But please forgive me if I seem D
E
To take the tone of judgement A
Fo-or I’ve no wish to come between D
This day and your enjoyment
A
In this life of hardship and of earthly toil D
A
We have need for anything that frees us D
A
So I bid you pleasure and I bid you cheer E
From a heathen and a pagan D
E
A
On the side of the rebel Jesus.
