FAMILY CAROL CONCERT
For many of us, Christmas is essentially a time for rejoicing and celebrating the birth of Jesus
Christ. It is also a time when our hearts are moved to remember those who are less fortunate
and a time of tradition both in our homes and in the community.
The Family Carol Concert in Guildford has been part of the town’s Christmas tradition for over
40 years and those of us who gather together to enjoy the music and take part in the singing
will be helping the Rotary Club of Guildford to provide support for others in the Borough. The
Club will again be allocating the proceeds from this afternoon to the Mayor of Guildford’s Charities
which, in turn, helps to support a party for senior citizens, a popular annual event organised
by Rotary on behalf of the Mayor.
The motto of Rotary is “Service before Self” emphasising the privilege we feel in helping others
through our various vocations, although we are well aware that much of our work could not
be undertaken without your generosity.
Therefore, this is our opportunity to thank you for enabling us to serve the local, national and
international community and during the last year, we have been proud to assist needy persons,
local service organisations and to join other Rotarians, both in this country and abroad, in supporting
a wide range of projects throughout the world.
This year’s Rotary International motto is “Real Happiness is Helping Others”, so thank you again ‘
for your support this afternoon which will help us to ensure that we can bring some joy and
happiness into the lives of others.
I wish you a peaceful and joyful Christmas and a prosperous New Year.

Once in royal David’s city
And our eyes at last shall see Him,
Stood a lowly cattle shed,
Where a mother laid her baby
Through his own redeeming love,
For that Child so dear and gentle
In a manger for his bed:
Is our Lord in heaven above;
Mary was that mother mild,
And he leads his children on
Jesus Christ her little child.
To the place where he is gone.
He came down to earth from heaven
Not in that poor lowly stable,
Who is God and Lord of all,
With the oxen standing by,
And his shelter was a stable,
And his cradle was a stall;
With the poor, and mean, and lowly,
Lived on earth our Saviour holy.
All
We shall see Him; but in heaven,
Set at God’s right hand on high;
When like stars his children crowned
All in white shall wait around.
And through all his wondrous childhood
He would honour and obey,
Love, and watch the lowly maiden,
In whose gentle arms he lay;
Christian children all must be
Mild, obedient, good as he.
As with gladness men of old
As with gladness men of old
Did the guiding star behold,
As they offered gifts most rare
At that manger rude and bare,
As with joy they hailed its light,
So may we with holy joy,
Leading onward, beaming bright,
So, most gracious God, may we
Evermore be led to thee.
All our costliest treasures bring,
As with joyful steps they sped
Pure, and free from sin’s alloy,
Christ, to thee our heavenly King.
-
Him whom heaven and earth adore,
In the heaven’ly country bright
Need they no created light;
Thou its light, its joy, its crown,
Thou its sun which does not go down:
So may we with willing feet
Ever seek thy mercy-seat.
There for ever may we sing
Alleluyas to our King.
To that lowly manger-bed,
There to bend the knee before
-
O little town of Bethlehem
O little town of Bethlehem,
How still we see thee lie!
Above thy deep and dreamless sleep
How silently, how silently,
The wondrous gift is given!
So God imparts to human hearts
The silent stars go by.
The blessings of his heaven.
Yet in thy dark streets shineth
The everlasting light;
No ear may hear his coming;
But in this world of sin,
The hopes and fears of all the years
Are met in thee tonight.
Where meek souls will receive him, still
The dear Christ enters in.
O morning star, together
Proclaim the Holy Birth,
And praises sing to God the King,
And peace to men on earth;
For Christ is born of Mary;
O holy Child of Bethehem,
Descend to us, we pray;
Cast out our sin, and enter in,
Be born'in us today.
We hear the Christmas angels
And, gathered all above,
The great glad tidings tell:
While mortals sleep, the angels keep
O come to us, abide with us,
Their watch of wondering love.
Our Lord Emmanuel.

Good King Wenceslas
All Good King Wenceslas looked out
Out on the Feast of Stephen,
When the snow lay all about,
Deep, and crisp and even:
Brightly shone the moon that night,
Though the frost was cruel,
When a poor man came in sight,
Gath’ring winter fuel.
Men
‘Hither, page, and stand by me,
If thou know’st.it, telling,
Yonder peasant, who is he?
Where and what his dwelling?
Ladies ‘Sire, he lives a good league hence,
Underneath the mountain,
Right against the forest fence,
By Saint Agnes’ fountain.’
Ladies “Sire, the night is darker now,
And the wind blows stronger;,
Fails my heart, I know not how;
I can go no longer.’
Men ‘Mark-my footsteps, good my page;
Tread thou in them boldly:
Thou shalt find the winter’s rage
Freeze thy blood less coldly.’
All In his master’s steps he trod,
Where the snow lay dinted;
Heat was in the very sod
Which the Saint had printed.
Therefore, Christian men, be sure
Wealth or rank possessing,
Ye who now will bless the poor,
Shall yourselves find blessing.
Men ‘Bring me flesh, and bring me wine,
Bring me pine-logs hither:
Thou and I will see him dine,
When we bear them thither.’
All Page and monarch, forth they went,
Forth they went together:
Through the rude wind’s wild lament
And the bitter weather.
See amid the winter’s snow
See amid the winter’s snow, Born for us on earth below;
See the tender Lamb appears, Promised from eternal years:
Hail, thou ever-blessed morn!
Hail, redemption’s happy dawn!
Sing through all Jerusalem,
Christ is born in Bethlehem.
Lo, within a manger lies He who built the starry skies;
He who, throned in height sublime,
Sits amid the cherubim:
Hail, thou ever-blessed morn! etc...
Sacred infant, all divine, What a tender love was thine,
Thus to come from highest bliss
Down to such a world as this!
Hail, thou ever-blessed morn! elc...
Teach, o teach us, Holy Child,
By thy face so meek and mild,
Teach us to resemble thee, In thy sweet humility:
Hail, thou ever-blessed morn! etc...

Away in a manger
(Children)
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 thee, Lord Jesus! Look down from the sky,
And stay by my side until morning is nigh.
Be near me, Lord Jesus; I ask thee to stay
Close by me for ever, and love me, I pray.
Bless all the dear children in thy tender care,
And fit us for heaven, to live with thee there.
O come, all ye faithful
Joyful and triumphant.
Sing, choirs of angels,
Sing in exultation,
O come ye, O come ye to Bethlehem;
Sing, all ye citizens of heaven above;
Come and behold him,
Born the King of Angels:
Glory to God
In the highest:
O come, all ye faithful,
O come, let us adore him,
O come, let us adore him,
O come, let us adore him,
Christ the Lord.

Light of Light,
Lo! he abhors not the Virgin’s womb.

Yea, Lord, we greet thee,
Born this happy morning,

GUILDFORD PHILHARMONIC ORCHESTRA
Guildford Philharmonic Orchestra’s regular playing strength of 75 professional musicians perform an annual
season of concerts at the Civic Hall attracting national attention.
The Guildford Philharmonic Orchestra was founded in 1945 by Guildford Borough Council; its first Musical
Director was Crossley Clitheroe. On his death in 1962 he was succeeded by Vernon Handley, who served
the Orchestra for 21 years. Sir Charles Groves held the position from 1986 until his death in June 1992.
A varied repertoire each season reflects the Orchestra’s desire to appeal to all music lovers— there really
is something for everyone. Celebrated musicians highlight each season, and children’s concerts and educational
projects are frequently held. An ‘Adopt a Player’ scheme introduces young audiences to the players, and
workshops promoted in association with the County Music Inspectorate help to cultivate composition skills
amongst GCSE music students.
Guildford Philharmonic Orchestra continues to be funded and promoted by Guildford Borough Council
with assistance from the South East Arts Association, the South East Music Trust, the Musician’s Union
and the goodwill of the Guildford Philharmonic Society. The Orchestra acknowledges the generous support
of its Sponsors.
GUILDFORD PHILHARMONIC CHOIR
The Guildford Philharmonic Choir was formed by Guildford Borough in order to perform the major choral
repertoire with the Guildford Philharmonic Orchestra. As well as performing well-known choral works,
the choir specializes in twentieth century British music and this has led to recordings of Gerald Finzi’s
‘Intimations of Immortality’ with the Guildford Philharmonic Orchestra and Patrick Hadley’s “The Trees
So High’ with the Philharmonia Orchestra, both recordings being conducted by Vernon Handley.
The choir is conducted by some of the most eminent musicians, and as well as giving frequent
concerts in Guildford, the choir occasionally visits other British cities. In 1988 the Guildford
Philharmonic Choir visited Paris and in 1990 joined forces with the Freiburger Bach Choir in
Freiburg Munster.
The Choir is trained by Neville Creed, who was appointed Chorus Master in 1987 and he is
assisted by Peter White. Jeremy Filsell is the Choir’s accompanist.
The choir’s future plans include a summer concert in the Guildford Festival in July and next
season a return visit to Freiburg.
Further details about the choir may be obtained from:

GUILDFORD CATHEDRAL CHOIR
The Choir of Guildford Cathedral was formed in 1961 under Barry Rose, the Cathedral’s first
Organist and Choirmaster. Since the Consecration of the Cathedral, the Choir has maintained
a daily Sung Evensong, and has built up an enviable reputation for its singing. The boys of the
choir (20), are drawn from Lanesborough Preparatory school in Guildford and some of the older
ones attend the Royal Grammar School. The lower parts are sung by professional layclerks and
choral scholars from the University of Surrey.
During its relatively short history, the choir has made numerous recordings, including an album
of Christmas Carols which won a ‘Gold Disc’ award for the sale of over five hundred thousand

records, and just recently a ‘Platinum Disc’ for over a million records sold. The choir has toured
widely in Britain and Europe and in 1988 undertook an extensive tour of Canada, singing to
capacity audiences from Ottawa in the East, to Victoria BC in the West. The choir broadcasts
regularly on BBC Radio 3, and has made several TV appearances.
In 1974 Barry Rose moved to St. Paul’s Cathedral, and he was succeeded by Philip Moore He
was appointed to York Minster in 1983 and the post is now occupied by the present Organist
and Master of the Choristers, Andrew Millington.
The choir covers a large repertoire from plainsong to contemporary music, including a wide variety
of European styles. In addition to service music, the choir occasionally performs larger works
with orchestra. In recent years, these have included Handel’s ‘Messiah’, Bach’s ‘St. John Passion’
and Haydn’s ‘Nelson Mass’.
