SOOKE NEWS MIRROR Christmas Song Book 2015

Amid the flurry of holiday activity, it is my pleasure as Acting Mayor to wish the people of Sooke a happy and safe holiday season. As a long-time resident of Sooke, I always look forward to spending the holidays with friends, family and neighbours in this wonderful town that I am proud to call home.

The holidays are a time to reflect on the year past and to look forward to what is to come. This past year, we have seen many exciting improvements to our town, not the least of which is the addition of the roundabout on Sooke Road. One of Council’s top strategic priorities is to enhance community livability, with a particular focus on improving the Town Centre. Council looks forward to continuing improvements to the Town Centre in 2016.

As I look back on the past year, I also wish to thank all of the organizations, individuals and volunteers who work hard throughout the year to make Sooke a better place to live. We are a town dedicated to caring for one another and I am filled with great pride to know that there are so many kind, hardworking people in our community.

I am hopeful that each of you have a joyful and peaceful holiday and that as we turn to the New Year, we all look together towards a prosperous 2016.

Thank you.Acting Mayor Kevin Pearson

ChristmasSongbook

We three kings of Orient are;Bearing gifts we traverse a far

Field and fountain, moor and Mountain,Following you yonder star.

Born a king on Bethlehem’s plain,Gold I bring, to crown Him again,

King forever ceasing never Over us all to reign.

Frank incense to offer have I,Incense owns a Deity nigh.

Pray’r and praising all men rising,Worship Him, God most high.

Myrrh is mine, its bitter perfumeBreathes a life of gathering gloom;Sorr’wing, sighing, bleeding, dying,

Sealed in the stone-cold tomb.

Glorious now behold Him arise,King and God and Sacri� ce,

Alleluia, Alleluia, Earth to heav’ns replies.

Star of night, Star with royal beauty bright,

Westward leading, still proceeding,Guide us to the perfect light.

We Three Kingsof Orient Are

Kahlua Pecan Brown Sugar Baked BrieRecipe from: Deb Stolth | Serves: 6-8

Ingredients1 whole wheel of Brie (19 ounces) Costco sells one, President Brie is the best for this recipe1 cup Kahlua 1 cup packed light brown sugar1 cup chopped pecans (I do leave mine mostly whole for looks)Serve with Keebler Club crackers

DirectionsPreheat oven to 350 degrees. Start by carefully slicing the rind off the top of the Brie wheel, but do not remove completely. Bake for 15 minutes. When the Brie is done baking, the top can be easily removed to expose the creamy cheese.

While the Brie is baking, in a medium saucepan, bring Kahlua and brown sugar to a boil and simmer for 10-15 minutes, until a syrupy consistency is made. Throw the pecans in for 2 minutes at the end to warm them through and completely cover with the sauce.

Remove the Brie from the oven (removing top rind) and pour Kahlua sauce over the Brie.Serve warm with crackers.

City sidewalks, busy sidewalks,Dressed in holiday style.

In the air there’s a feeling of Christmas,Children laughing, people passing,

Meeting smile after smile,And on every street corner you hear:

CHORUS

Silver bells, silver bells,It’s Christmas time in the city. Ring-a-ling, hear them ring,

Soon it will be Christmas day.

City street lights, even stop lights,Blink a bright red and green,

As the shoppers rush home with their treasures. Hear the snow crunch,

See the kids bunch,This is Santa’s big scene,

And above all this bustle you hear:

CHORUS

Silver Bells

ChristmasSongbookDo you hear

what I hear?Said the night wind to the little lamb

“Do you see what I see?Way up in the sky, little lamb

Do you see what I see?A star, a star, dancing in the night

With a tail as big as a kiteWith a tail as big as a kite.”

Said the little lamb to the shepherd boy“Do you hear what I hear?

Ringing through the sky, shepherd boyDo you hear what I hear?

A song, a song high above the treesWith a voice as big as the the sea

With a voice as big as the the sea.”

Said the shepherd boy to the mighty king“Do you know what I know?

In your palace warm, mighty kingDo you know what I know?

A Child, a Child shivers in the coldLet us bring him silver and gold

Let us bring him silver and gold.”

Said the king to the people everywhere“Listen to what I say

Pray for peace, people, everywhereListen to what I say

The Child, the Child sleeping in the nightHe will bring us goodness and light

He will bring us goodness and light.”

Frosty the Snowmanwas a jolly happy soul,

With a corn cob pipe and a button noseAnd two eyes made out of coal.

Frosty the Snowman is a fairy tale, they say,He was made of snowbut the children know

How he came to life one day.There must have been some magic

In that old silk hat they found,For when they placed it on his head,

He began to dance around.Oh, Frosty the Snowmanwas alive as he could be.

And the children sayhe could laugh and play

Just the same as you and me.

Frosty theSnowman

ChristmasSongbook

God rest you merry, gentlemen,let nothing you dismay,

Remember, Christ, our Savior,was born on Christmas day;

To save us all from Satan’s power, when we were gone a stray.

In Bethlehem, in Jewry,this blessed Babe was born,And laid within a manger,upon this blessed morn;

The which His mother Marydid nothing take I scorn.

From God, our heav’nly Father,a blessed angel came,

And unto certain shepherdsbrought tidings of the same

How that in Bethlehem was born the Son of God by name.

God Restyou Merry,Gentlemen

The shepherds at those tidings, rejoiced much in mind,

And left their � ocks a feeding,in tempest, storm, and wind,

And went to Bethlehem straitway,the Son of God to � nd.

O tidings of comfort and joy,comfort and joy,

O tidings of comfort and joy,comfort and joy.

It Came Upon A Midnight ClearIt came upon a midnight clear, That glorious song of old,

From Angels bending near the earth, To touch their harps of gold.“Peace on the earth, goodwill to men

From heaven’s all gracious King!”The world in solemn stillness lay, To hear the Angels sing.

Still through the cloven skies they come, With peaceful wings unfurled;

And still their heavenly music � oats, O’er all the weary world;Above its sad and lowly plains, They bend on heavenly wing,

And ever o’er its babel-sounds, The blessed Angels sing.

Yet with the woes of sin and strife The world has suffered long;Beneath the angel-strain have rolled,

Two thousand years of wrong;And man, at war with man, hears not,

The words of peace they bring:- Oh! Listen now, ye men of strife, And hear the Angels sing!

O Prince of Peace, Thou knowest well This weary world below;Thou seest how men climb the way, With painful steps and slow.

Oh! Still the jarring sounds of earth That round the pathway ring,And bid the toilers rest awhile To hear the Angels sing.

Let It SnowLet It Snow

Oh! the weather outside is frightful,But the � re is so delightful,

And since we’ve no place to go,Let it snow! Let it snow! Let it snow!

It doesn’t show signs of stopping,But I brought some corn for popping,The lights are turn’d way down low,Let it snow! Let it snow! Let it snow!

When we � nally kiss goodnight,How I’ll hate going out in the storm!

But if you’ll really hold me tight,All the way home, I’ll be warm.

The � re is slowly dying,And, my dear, we’re still good-byeing,

But as long as you love me so,Let it snow! Let it snow! Let it snow!

Hark!The HeraldAngels Sing

Hark! the herald angels sing, Glory to the new born King,Peace on earth, and mercy mild, God and sinners reconciled.

Joyful, all ye nations rise, Join the triumph of the skies;With the angelic host proclaim, “Christ is born in Bethlehem.”

Hark! the herald angels sing Glory to the new born King.

Christ, by highest heaven adored, Christ, the everlasting Lord,Late in time behold him come, Offspring of a Virgin’s womb,Veiled in � esh the Godhead see! Hail, the incarnate Deity!Pleased as Man with man to dwell, Jesus, our Emmanuel.Hark! the herald angels sing Glory to the new born King.

Hail, the heaven-born Prince of Peace! Hail, the Sun of Righteousness,Light and life to all he brings,

Risen with healing in his wings, Mild he lays his glory by,Born that man no more may die, Born to raise the sons of earth,

Born to give them second birth.

Jingle bells, jingle bells, Jingle all the way;Oh what fun it is to ride, In a one-horse open sleigh.Dashing thru the snow, In a one horse open sleigh;

O’er the � elds we go, Laughing all the way;

Bells on bobtail ring, Making spirits bright;What fun it is to ride and sing

A sleighing song tonight!

CHORUS

Jingle bells, jingle bells, Jingle all the way;Oh what fun it is to ride, In a one-horse open sleigh.

A day or two ago, I thought I’d take a ride;And soon Miss Fannie Bright, Was seated by my side;

The horse was lean and lank; Misfortune seem’d his lot,He got into a drifted bank, And then we got upshot!

CHORUS

Now the ground is white, Go it while you’re young,Take the girls tonight, And sing the sleighing song;

Just get a bobtail’d bay, Two forty for his speed,Then hitch him to an open sleigh,

And crack! you’ll take the lead.CHORUS

Jingle Bells

Good King WenceslasGood King Wenceslas look’d out

on the Feast of Stephen,When the snow lay round 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.“Hither, page, and stand by me,

if thou know’st it; telling,Yonder peasant, who is he?

Where and what his dwelling?”“Sire, he lives a good league hence,

underneath the mountain;Right against the forest fence,

by Saint Agnes’ fountain.”

“Bring me flesh, and bring me wine, bring me pine logs hither;

Thou and I will see him dine,when we bear them thither.”

Page and monarch forth they went,forth they went together;

Through the rude wind’s wild lament, and the bitter weather.

“Sir, the night is darker now, and the wind blows stronger;

Fails my heart, I know not how, I can go no longer.”

Mark my footsteps, my good page, tread thou in them boldly:

Thou shalt find the winter’s rage freeze thy blood less coldly.”

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.

JollyOld Saint Nicholas

Jolly old Saint Nicholas,Lean your ear this way!

Don’t you tell a single soulWhat I’m going to say;

Christmas Eve is coming soon;Now, my dear old man,

Whisper what you’ll bring to me,Tell me if you can.

When the clock is striking twelve,When I’m fast asleep,

Down the chimney broad and black,With your pack you’ll creep;

All the stockings you will � ndHanging in a row;

Mine will be the shortest one,You’ll be sure to know.

Johnny wants a pair of skates;Susy wants a sled;

Nellie wants a picture bookYellow, blue and red;

Now I think I’ll leave to youWhat to give the rest;

Choose for me, dear Santa Claus,You will know the best.

The Holly and the IvyThe holly and the ivy, now both are full well grown,

Of all the trees that are in the wood,the holly bears the crown.

The holly bears a blossom as white as lily � ow’r:And Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ to be our sweet Savior.

The holly bears a berry, as red as any blood;And Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ, to do poor sinners good.

O the rising of the sun, the running of the deer,The playing of the merry organ,

Sweet singing in the choir, sweet singing in the choir.

Sleigh bells ring, are you listening,in the lane, snow is glistening

A beautiful sight,we're happy tonight,

walking in a winter wonderland.

Gone away is the bluebird,here to stay is a new bird

He sings a love song,as we go along,


In the meadow we can build a snow-man,

Then pretend that he is Parson BrownHe'll say: Are you married?

we'll say: No man,But you can do the jobwhen you're in town.

Later on, we'll conspire,as we dream by the � re

To face unafraid,the plans that we've made,


Sleigh bells ring, are you listening,in the lane, snow is glistening

A beautiful sight,we're happy tonight,


Gone away is the bluebird,here to stay is a new bird

He sings a love song,as we go along,


In the meadow we can build a snow-man,

and pretend that he's a circus clownWe'll have lots of fun with mister snow-

man,until the alligators knock him down.

When it snows, ain't it thrilling,Though your nose gets a chilling

We'll frolic and play, the Eskimo way,walking in a winter wonderland.

Walking in a winter wonderland,walking in a winter wonderland.

ChristmasSongbook I Heard

The Bells On Christmas DayI heard the bells on Christmas Day

Their old familiar carols play,And wild and sweet the words repeatOf peace on earth, goodwill to men.

I thought how, as the day had come, The belfries of all Christendom

Had rolled a long th’ unbroken songOf peace on earth, goodwill to men.

And in despair I bowed my head;“There is no peace on earth,” I said,

“For hate is strong and mocks the song Of peace on earth, goodwill to men.”

Then pealed the bells more loud and deep:

“God is not dead, nor doth He sleep; The wrong shall fail, the right prevail, With peace on earth, goodwill to men.”

Till, ringing, singing on its way,The world revolv’d from night to day,

A voice, a chime, a chant sublime,Of peace on earth, goodwill to men!
