1. Kontakion, Byzantine chant
(words by St. Romanos the Melodist, 6th c.)
Today the Virgin gives birth to Him who is above all being, and the earth offers a cave to Him whom no man can approach. Angels with shepherds give glory, and Magi journey with a star. For unto us is born a young Child, the pre-eternal God.
2. Sticheron, mode V
The Magi, kings of Persia, knew with assurance that Thou, the heavenly King, wast born on earth. Led by the light of a star they came to Bethlehem, and offered their chosen gifts, gold and frankincense and myrrh. Falling before Thee they worshipped Thee: for they saw Thee who art timeless lying as a babe in the cave.
3. God Is With Us, mode VI
God is with us, understand, O ye nations and submit ye - for God is with us.
Hearken ye unto the ends of the earth - ...
Submit yourselves, O ye mighty ones;
For if ye again strengthen yourselves,ye shall again be vanquished;
And whatsoever counsel ye shall take, the Lord shall bring it to naught;
And the word, whatsoever ye speak, shall not remain with you;
And of your fear we shall be neither afraid not in dread;
But the Lord our God, Him will we hallow, and he shall be fear unto us;
And I be trusting in Him, He shall be unto me sanctification;
And I will be hoping in Him, and shall be saved by Him;
Behold I and the children which God hath given me;
4. O Yulelog, O Yulelog (Christmas song)
O Yulelog, O Yulelog,
Our old cousin, you are welcome to us and to our homes!
O dear Serbian Yulelog, our old kinsman.
O Yulelog, O Yulelog, you bring us so much of joy, with sacks full of all good things;
You announce Christ to us, you glorify and tell of Him.
O dear Serbian Yulelog, our old cousin.
O Yulelog, O Yulelog!

14. Sessional Hymns (After the First Kathisma)
Josef was seized with fear in contemplating the mystery in which nature is surpassed, and, and his thoughts went to the fleece covered with dew, the bush unconsumed by fire, and Aaron’s rod that budded, O Mother of God, for thou didst conceive without seed. Thy spouse and and guardian witnessed for thee before the priests and cried: “A virgin has given birth and, after childbearing, has remained a virgin!”
15. All ye nations clap your hands!
All ye nations clap your hands
For Christ the Saviour is with us.
He was born in Bethlehem, Judea,
a babe wrapped in swaddling bands.
Shepherds play their pipes,
Giving thanks to God, Who is born.
Wise men have come from the east,
Bringing frankincense, gold and mirrh.
The Pre-eternal Word ha come down
To vanquish all the idols at last.
And all their powers are no more;
Let Christ God reign forever!
