Every year, my church does a program where well known songs (e.g. O Holy
Night, Christmas carols - allows for occasional audience participation if
desired, songs from Messiah, etc.) are interspersed with readings from the
Bible (mostly ones regarding the birth of Christ) and occasionally poetry or
stories that go along with the theme. The songs are placed as much as
possible following a reading along the same lines. The audience always loves
it (full house every year). This gives you a lot of flexibility in designing
the program according to the capabilities of your performers.
