worship, in the form of quiet meditation, begins with the prelude
Prelude 6:30 pm The Virgin’s Slumber Song Amid the roses Mary sits And rocks her Jesus-child, While amid the treetops Sighs the breeze so warm and mild.
Max Reger
And soft and sweetly sings A bird upon a bough: Ah, baby, dear one, Slumber now!
Nina Greensleeves
Happy is Thy laughter, Holy is Thy silent rest, Lay Thy head in slumber Fondly on Thy Mother’s breast. Ah, baby, dear one, Slumber now! G. B. Pergolesi arr. Daniel Gilliam
10:30 pm Three Carols, Op. 20
Away In a Manger
Away and in a manger, No crib for his 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 a sleep on the hay. The cattle are lowing, The poor baby wakes, But little Lord Jesus, No crying he makes.
2
I love you, Lord Jesus; Look down from the sky And stay by my cradle ‘til morning is nigh. Be near me, Lord Jesus; I ask three to stay Close by me forever and love me, I pray. Bless all the dear children in your tender care And fit us for heaven to live with thee there.
Kevin Oldham
Joy to the World Joy to the World! The Lord is come: Let earth receive her King; Let every heart prepare him room, And heaven and nature sing!
Joy to the World! The Savior reigns: Let us our songs employ; While fields and floods, Rocks, hills and plains Repeat the sounding joy! Joy!
He rules the world with truth and grace, And makes the nations prove The glories of his righteousness, And wonders of his love!
Silent Night
Silent night! Holy night! All is calm, all is bright Round yon virgin mother and child! Holy infant, so tender and mild, Sleep in peace. Silent night! Holy night! Shepherds quake at the sight, Glories stream from heaven afar, Heav’nly hosts sing Alleluia! Christ is born! Silent night! Holy night! Wondrous star lend thy light; With the angels let us sing, Alleluia to our King, Christ is born! Alleluia!
6:30 & 10:30 pm The Holly and the Ivy
arr. Reginald Jacques
The holly and the ivy, When they are both full grown, Of all the trees that are in the wood, The holly bears the crown. The rising of the sun And the running of the deer, The playing of the merry organ, Sweet singing in the choir.
The holly bears a berry, As red as any blood, And Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ For to do us sinners good. The rising of the sun And the running of the deer, The playing of the merry organ, Sweet singing in the choir.
The holly bears a blossom, As white as the lily flower, And Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ, To be our sweet Saviour. The rising of the sun And the running of the deer, The playing of the merry organ, Sweet singing in the choir.
The holly bears a prickle, As sharp as any thorn, And Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ On Christmas Day in the morn. The rising of the sun And the running of the deer, The playing of the merry organ, Sweet singing in the choir.
3
The holly bears a bark, As bitter as any gall, And Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ For to redeem us all. The rising of the sun And the running of the deer, The playing of the merry organ, Sweet singing in the choir.
The holly and the ivy, When they are both full grown, Of all the trees that are in the wood, The holly bears the crown. The rising of the sun And the running of the deer, The playing of the merry organ, Sweet singing in the choir.
There is no rose
Benjamin Britten
There is no rose of such virtue As is the rose that bare Jesu; Alleluia.
The angels sungen the shepherds to: Gloria in excelsis deo: Gaudeamus.
For in this rose contained was Heaven and earth in little space; Res miranda.
Leave we all this worldly mirth, And follow we this joyful birth; Transeamus.
By that rose we may well see There be one God in persons three, Paresforma.
Alleluia, resmiranda, Pares forma, gaudeamus, Transeamus.
Sussex Carol
arr. David Willcocks
On Christmas night all Christians sing To hear the news the angels bring. News of great joy, news of great mirth, News of our merciful King’s birth.
When sin departs before His grace, Then life and health come in its place. Angels and men with joy may sing All for to see the newborn King.
Then why should men on earth be so sad, Since our Redeemer made us glad, When from our sin he set us free, All for to gain our liberty?
All out of darkness we have light, Which made the angels sing this night: “Glory to God and peace to men, Now and for evermore, Amen!”
I wonder as I wander I wonder as I wander out under the sky How Jesus my Saviour did come for to die For poor on’ry people like you and like I I wonder as I wander out under the sky
John Jacob Niles I wonder as I wander out under the sky That Jesus my Saviour did come for to die For poor on’ry people like you and like I I wonder as I wander out under the sky I wonder as I wander out under the sky

Isaiah 9:2-7
The people who walked in darkness have seen a great light; those who lived in a land of deep darkness-on them light has shined. You have multiplied the nation, you have increased its joy; they rejoice before you as with joy at the harvest, as people exult when dividing plunder. For the yoke of their burden, and the bar across their shoulders, the rod of their oppressor, you have broken as on the day of Midian. For all the boots of the tramping warriors and all the garments rolled in blood The Word of the Lord.
Thanks be to God. 6
shall be burned as fuel for the fire. For a child has been born for us, a son given to us; authority rests upon his shoulders; and he is named Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. His authority shall grow continually, and there shall be endless peace for the throne of David and his kingdom. He will establish and uphold it with justice and with righteousness from this time onward and forevermore. The zeal of the LORD of hosts will do this.
Psalm
96 • sung by the choir
chant by David Hurd
Sing to the LORD a new song; * sing to the LORD, all the whole earth.
Sing to the LORD and bless his Name; * proclaim the good news of his salvation from day to day. Declare his glory among the nations * and his wonders among all peoples.
For great is the LORD and greatly to be praised; * he is more to be feared than all gods.
As for all the gods of the nations, they are but idols; * but it is the LORD who made the heavens. Oh, the majesty and magnificence of his presence! * Oh, the power and the splendor of his sanctuary! Ascribe to the LORD, you families of the peoples; * ascribe to the LORD honor and power. Ascribe to the LORD the honor due his Name; * bring offerings and come into his courts. Worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness; * let the whole earth tremble before him.
Tell it out among the nations: “The LORD is King! * he has made the world so firm that it cannot be moved; he will judge the peoples with equity.” Let the heavens rejoice, and let the earth be glad; let the sea thunder and all that is in it; * let the field be joyful and all that is therein. Then shall all the trees of the wood shout for joy before the LORD when he comes, * when he comes to judge the earth. He will judge the world with righteousness * and the peoples with his truth.

Second Lesson
Titus 2:11-14
For the grace of God has appeared, bringing salvation to all, training us to renounce impiety and worldly passions, and in the present age to live lives that are self-controlled, upright, and godly, while we wait for the blessed hope and
the manifestation of the glory of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ. He it is who gave himself for us that he might redeem us from all iniquity and purify for himself a people of his own who are zealous for good deeds.
The Word of the Lord.
Thanks be to God. Carol 109
Gospel
The first Nowell
Luke 2:1-20
The Holy Gospel of our Lord, Jesus Christ, acording to Luke.
Glory to you, Lord Christ
In those days a decree went out from Emperor Augustus that all the world should be registered. This was the first registration and was taken while Quirinius was governor of Syria. All went to their own towns to be registered. Joseph also went from the town of Nazareth in Galilee to Judea, to the city of David called Bethlehem, because he was descended from the house and family of David. He went to be registered with Mary, to whom he was engaged and who was expecting a child. While they were there, the time came for her to deliver her child. And she gave birth to her firstborn son and wrapped him in bands of cloth, and laid him in a manger, because there was no place for them in the inn. In that region there were shepherds living in the fields, keeping watch over
8
their flock by night. Then an angel of the Lord stood before them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were terrified. But the angel said to them, “Do not be afraid; for see-- I am bringing you good news of great joy for all the people: to you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, who is the Messiah, the Lord. This will be a sign for you: you will find a child wrapped in bands of cloth and lying in a manger.” And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host, praising God and saying, “Glory to God in the highest heaven, and on earth peace among those whom he favors!” When the angels had left them and gone into heaven, the shepherds said to one another, “Let us go now to Bethlehem and
and see this thing that has taken place, which the Lord has made known to us.” So they went with haste and found Mary and Joseph, and the child lying in the manger. When they saw this, they made known what had been told them about this child; and all who heard it
were amazed at what the shepherds told them. But Mary treasured all these words and pondered them in her heart. The shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all they had heard and seen, as it had been told them.

Away in a manger • 7 pm
Away in a manger, no crib for his 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 in the hay.
The cattle are lowing, the baby awakes, but little Lord Jesus no crying he makes. I love thee, Lord Jesus! Look down from the sky, and stay by my side until morning is nigh.

Nicene Creed • BCP 358 We believe in one God, the Father, the Almighty, maker of heaven and earth, of all that is, seen and unseen. We believe in one Lord, Jesus Christ, the only Son of God, eternally begotten of the Father, God from God, Light from Light, true God from true God, begotten, not made, of one Being with the Father. Through him all things were made. For us and for our salvation he came down from heaven: by the power of the Holy Spirit he became incarnate from the Virgin Mary, and was made man. For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate; he suffered death and was buried. On the third day he rose again in accordance
with the Scriptures; he ascended into heaven and is seated at the right hand of the Father. He will come again in glory to judge the living and the dead, and his kingdom will have no end. We believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life, who proceeds from the Father and the Son. With the Father and the Son he is worshiped and glorified. He has spoken through the Prophets. We believe in one holy catholic and apostolic Church. We acknowledge one baptism for the forgiveness of sins. We look for the resurrection of the dead, and the life of the world to come. Amen.

Holy Communion Offertory Anthem
Ring Out Ye Bells
Dale Trumbore (b. 1987) text by Paul Laurence Dunbar (1872-1906)
Ring out, ye bells! All Nature swells With gladness at the wondrous story,— The world was lorn, But Christ is born To change our sadness into glory.
The darkness breaks And Dawn awakes, Her cheeks suffused with youthful blushes. The rocks and stones In holy tones Are singing sweeter than the thrushes.
Sing, earthlings, sing! Tonight a King Hath come from heaven’s high throne to bless us. The outstretched hand O’er all the land Is raised in pity to caress us.
Then why should we In silence be, When Nature lends her voice to praises; When heaven and earth Proclaim the truth Of Him for whom that lone star blazes?
Come at his call; Be joyful all; Away with mourning and with sadness! The heavenly choir With holy fire Their voices raise in songs of gladness.
No, be not still, But with a will Strike all your harps and set them ringing; On hill and heath Let every breath Throw all its power into singing!

It is right, and a good and joyful thing, always and every where to give thanks to you, Father Almighty, Creator of heaven and earth.
Because you gave Jesus Christ, your only Son, to be born for us; who, by the mighty power of the Holy Spirit, was made perfect Man of the flesh of the Virgin Mary his mother; so that we might be delivered from the bondage of sin, and receive power to become your children.
Therefore we praise you, joining our voices with Angels and Archangels and with all the company of heaven, who for ever sing this hymn to proclaim the glory of your Name:
12
Sanctus S131
We give thanks to you, O God, for the goodness and love which you have made known to us in creation; in the calling of Israel to be your people; in your Word spoken through the prophets; and above all in the Word made flesh, Jesus, your Son. For in these last days you sent him to be incarnate from the Virgin Mary, to be the Savior and Redeemer of the world. In him, you have delivered us from evil, and made us worthy to stand before you. In him, you have brought us out of error into truth, out of sin into righteousness, out of death into life. We give thanks to you, O God, for the goodness and love which you have made known to us in creation; in the calling of Israel to be your people; in your Word spoken through the prophets; and above all in the Word made flesh, Jesus, your Son. For in these last days you sent him to be incarnate from the Virgin Mary, to be the Savior and Redeemer of the world. In him, you have delivered us from evil, and made us worthy to stand before you. In him, you have brought us out of error into truth, out of sin into righteousness, out of death into life. On the night before he died for us, our Lord Jesus Christ took bread; and when he had given thanks to you, he broke it, and gave it to his disciples, and said, “Take, eat: This is my Body, which is given for you. Do this for the remembrance of me.” After supper he took the cup of wine; and when he had given thanks, he gave it to them, and said, “Drink this, all of you: This is my Blood of the new Covenant, which is shed for you and for many for the forgiveness of sins. Whenever you drink it, do this for the remembrance of me.” Therefore, according to his command, O Father,
We remember his death, We proclaim his resurrection, We await his coming in glory;
13
And we offer our sacrifice of praise and thanksgiving to you, O Lord of all; presenting to you, from your creation, this bread and this wine.
We pray you, gracious God, to send your Holy Spirit upon these gifts that they may be the Sacrament of the Body of Christ and his Blood of the new Covenant. Unite us to your Son in his sacrifice, that we may be acceptable through him, being sanctified by the Holy Spirit. In the fullness of time, put all things in subjection under your Christ, and bring us to that heavenly country where, with [_________. and] all your saints, we may enter the everlasting heritage of your sons and daughters; through Jesus Christ our Lord, the firstborn of all creation, the head of the Church, and the author of our salvation. By him, and with him, and in him, in the unity of the Holy Spirit all honor and glory is yours, Almighty Father, now and for ever. The Great Amen • at the conclusion of the Great Thanksgiving all sing:
The Lord’s Prayer • BCP 364 Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy Name, thy kingdom come, thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever and ever. Amen.

Welcome! And thank you for joining us for worship.
Take a moment to read about what the rest of life is like in our community of faith. This CATHEDRAL MATTERS includes information about worship, spiritual formation, service, fellowship, and more (note that there are several seasonal closures). Find something that fits. Try it on. And let me know if you have questions or comments. The Cathedral Office is closed on Christmas Day and December 26, but if you have a pastoral need, know that the pastoral care line is never closed. Please call—the pastoral care number is 502-632-3213—and I will respond. And I hope you will join us for the rest of our Christmastide services: Christmas Day: Spoken Eucharist with Carols, at Noon in the Chapel The First Sunday after Christmas: December 30, at 8:30 and 10:30 I want to thank those who have made this worship possible: Bishop White, Canon Coultas and Canon Lewis, Verger and Acolytes, the Altar Guild, Cathedral Life, Chalice Bearers, Choirmaster and the Choir, Organist and guest musicians, Hospitality Volunteers, those who decorated our spaces and produced our printed materials, Lectors and Intercessors, Office Volunteers, Ushers, and the Cathedral Staff. I invite you to take a moment to thank them as well. After the service, before returning to the cool air, stop in the Narthex for a warm drink and even warmer fellowship. But first, as you prepare to worship and begin the season of Christmas, reflect upon this prayer from a New Zealand Prayer Book: Welcome, welcome, Jesus Christ our infant Savior, baby who makes every birth holy. May we, who like the shepherds have witnessed in the stable a new kind of love, return to our work with joy. May we, for whom the heavens have opened to proclaim that God is with us, we who have fed on living bread and drunk the wine of heaven, go out to be instruments of your peace, day by day. I am glad you are here. Faithfully,

Justice Ministry Through CLOUT
Here’s the latest on your Justice Ministry: The Cathedral, along with 20 other CLOUT member congregations in Louisville, works to build a city of justice where its systems assure that all people are treated fairly. On Dec. 4 CLOUT held its Researchto-Action Kickoff. While past issue efforts will continue, we will begin to research a new issue this year relating to Senior Concerns. The first task will be to decide on a specific problem affecting senior citizens in our city. What problem would you like to see us work to correct? Do you have a story to tell? In addition, if you would like to be part of this justice ministry at the Cathedral, please speak to one of the CLOUT Team members: Page Curry, Mildred Franks, and Jim Monin.

Central Louisville Community Ministries
Central Louisville Community Ministries (CLCM), formerly Help Ministries of Central Louisville, is one of the oldest community ministries in the city of Louisville. It was created in 1968 by ministers in the downtown area to respond in a structured way to the requests for help that came to churches. CLCM gives direct and personal assistance to residents of the central Louisville community who are in need; to provide a place where residents feel welcome and can receive referrals and shortterm emergency assistance; to advocate on behalf of clients for the improvement of the quality of assistance from providers of public and private services; to create and implement programs that build a sense of community among clients, churches, businesses, and the public and private social sectors; and to provide opportunities to fulfill their urban missions by combining their resources, both financial and human.
Downtown Episcopal Outreach (DEO)
Don’t be afraid of CHANGE—put it in the DEO Pig! DEO supports Laundry Love, Kentucky Refugee Ministry and addresses gap needs that arise in service agencies throughout central Louisville. Using the Dean’s Discretionary Fund, and working with outreach partners including Central Louisville Community Ministries, Our Merciful Savior Episcopal Church and St. George’s Episcopal Church, we help with expenses such as ID application fees, prescription drugs, utilities, and some transportation costs. You can help by contributing to the Dean’s Discretionary Fund, and by putting coins and bills in the DEO Piggy Bank.
Coffee In The Hall
Each weekday morning from 8 am to 12:30 pm the hallway in the link building is open to our neighbors. This allows them the chance to come in for a break from the heat/cold/rain, use the restroom, and have a cup of coffee or a bottled water. You can help with this ministry by donating 4-pound bags of sugar, cans of ground coffee, or bottled water to the Cathedral Office. 4

Sharing Faith Dinners
Bishop White has invited all congregations of the diocese to participate in the Sharing Faith Dinners, a program intended to draw us deeper into the work of engaging our faith. He writes that “this resource is being offered by the Departments of Christian Formation, and Mission and Evangelism, in response to the call in his address to the 189th Diocesan Convention to renew our focus on adult baptism and evangelism. It will benefit our congregations and our ministry as a diocese.” Sign-up sheet for participating in a gathering is on the Office Bulletin Board. Let me know if you have questions.
Welcome Ministry
Have you ever gone to a church for the first time and no one spoke to you as you entered? That is a Greeter’s role of outreach--to make a person feel welcome as they enter a church for the first time. It requires only about 15-20 minutes each time you greet and it is beneficial to the greeter as much as the one greeted. If you would like to help with this important service to the church, please contact the Dean or Bobbie Fritton.
Greetings!
A greeting card program for Christ Church Cathedral parish has been developed to recognize special and significant days – birthdays, anniversaries, baptisms, confirmations, weddings, and to reach out to the homebound and to express condolences. Adults with current e-mail addresses will receive e-cards from caring@christchurchlouky. org. When the animated portion ends, wait for your personal message screen to appear. Paper cards will be mailed to our children, youth and to folks without e-mail. Please add caring@ christchurchlouky.org to your e-mail addresses so that your e-cards will reach your inbox. To assure receipt of e-cards, please inform the church office of a new or updated e-mail address (after the 2017 Directory listings). Thank you!

Why do we pray, study, work, listen and build?
Benedict, the father of Benedictine spirituality, suggested that our life is best balanced between prayer, study, and work. We have taken that challenge as the basis of our common life together at Christ Church Cathedral: We pray (worship and the arts). We study (spiritual formation). We work (service to others). In addition, we know that we are sustained by our life together, and that works best when we listen to one another. We also aim to build and maintain a structure that will support all of our ministry efforts. And so: We listen (cathedral life and fellowship), We build (administration). In Cathedral Matters, you will find information about ministry opportunities at the Cathedral which fit into all five of these areas. Under each of the five main categories you will see what is new to the listing for this week. You will notice that some paragraphs repeat weekly, so that our guests won’t miss any news. You are urged to take your Cathedral Matters home with you so that you will have it for ready reference. Now, read about our ministry, think about how you would like to be involved...and jump right in!

Planned Giving, Your Legacy of Faith The year end is coming! At least this solicitation is not coming by mail, email or voice mail. The year end is a time for you to consider options regarding financial matters such as a major gift to the Endowment Corporation.
IRA’s: For traditional IRA owners who have turned 70 ½, a Required Minimum Distribution (RMD) is mandatory and is taxed as ordinary income, unless it is made as a qualified charitable distribution to a charity such as the Endowment Corporation. For those who have not yet reached that age and who find that tax deferred savings in this form are not needed, some or all of an IRA (or other tax advantaged savings) can be transferred tax free as well.
Appreciated Securities; Gifts of shares of stock or bonds which were acquired long ago and have a low “basis” qualify for charitable deduction at full current value. If such shares are transferred to children or others, the current value over basis (and annual exclusion) may be subject to gift tax. Even closely-held securities may be considered.
Life Insurance Policies: Rather than let any form of life insurance policy or annuity lapse, consider gifting it to the Endowment Corp. Other Tangible Property: If you have a car, one or more pieces of unneeded “brown” furniture, a painting, or even real estate which is no longer needed, consider giving it to the Cathedral or the Endowment Corporation. Cash or prospective inheritances: Current cash or expected inheritances can become valuable deductions as well.
Years ago the Endowment Corporation and the Chapter adopted joint Gift Acceptance Policy to facilitate giving for the Cathedral. If you and your tax advisor find this time of year a good time to make a gift, please feel free to contact a member of the Endowment Corporation Board or the Dean to discuss how such generosity can be accepted.
