<strong>St</strong> Matthew’s <strong>Choir</strong> rehearses every Thursday from 7.30 to 9.30pm at<br />
<strong>St</strong> Matthew’s Church. We welcome singers of all abilities, however we<br />
are currently experiencing a shortage of tenors and basses which restricts<br />
the range of music we can perform. There are no auditions or<br />
fees and we always go to the pub afterwards! Gentlemen, <strong>St</strong> Matthew’s<br />
<strong>Choir</strong> needs you! Please consider joining us and encourage your friends<br />
to do likewise.<br />
Telephone the <strong>Choir</strong> Manager on 020 8998 2879,<br />
or email: manager@smce.org.uk for more information.<br />
Thanks<br />
To the Vicar of <strong>St</strong> Matthew’s, Peter Watkins, for letting us use the church<br />
for rehearsals and performances, and to the technical crew, front of house<br />
helpers and everyone who has helped us behind the scenes.<br />

Hark The Herald Angels Sing<br />
F. Mendelssohn<br />
Hark the herald angels sing<br />
Glory to the newborn King;<br />
Peace on earth and mercy mild,<br />
God and sinners reconciled:<br />
Joyful all ye nations, rise,<br />
Join the triumph of the skies,<br />
With angelic hosts proclaim<br />
Christ is born in Bethlehem:<br />
Hark the herald angels sing<br />
Glory to the newborn King<br />
Christ, by highest heaven adored,<br />
Christ the Everlasting Lord,<br />
Late in time, behold him come,<br />
Offspring of a virgin’s womb,<br />
Veiled in flesh the Godhead see,<br />
Hail the incarnate Deity!<br />
Pleased as man with man to dwell,<br />
Jesus, our Emmanuel:<br />
Hark the herald angels sing,<br />
Glory to the newborn King.<br />
Hail the heaven-born Prince of Peace!<br />
Hail the Sun of Righteousness!<br />
Light and Life to all he brings,<br />
Risen with healing in his wings;<br />
Mild he lays his glory by,<br />
Born that man no more may die,<br />
Born to raise the sons of earth,<br />
Born to give them second birth:<br />
Hark the herald angels sing,<br />
Glory to the newborn King.<br />
We Wish you a Merry Christmas<br />
