And His name shall be called ; Away in a manger ; Behold that star ; Children, go where I send thee ; Go, tell it on the mountain ; Mary had a baby ; Mighty wonder ; Remember, O thou man ; Rise up, shepherd, and follow ; Star of the night ; The Virgin Mary had a baby boy ; Wasn't that a mighty day!
