Hey, ho, nobody home,meat, nor drink, nor money have I nonecan't you, we be merry,hey ho, nobody home.

Chorus: A soulin, a soulin, a soulin cakePlease, good missus, a soulin cakeAn apple, a pear, a plum or a cherryAny good thing to make us all merryOne for Peter, two for PaulThree for Him who made us all

God Bless the master of this house, the mistress also

And all the little children who around your table growthe cattle in your stable, the dog at your front door.And all that dwells within your gateswe wish you ten times morechorus:

Go down into your cellor,and see what you can find,if the barrels are all emptywe hope you will be kind.with the apple in your sill, and the pumpkin in your chairWe won't come no more till this time next yearchorus:

The streets are very dirty and my shoes are very thinI've got a little pocket I can put a penny inIf you haven't got a penny, a ha' penny will do

If you haven't got a ha' penny, then God bless you.chorus:

O Come, O Come, Emmanuel

O come, O come, Emmanuel,And ransom captive Israel,That mourns in lonely exile hereUntil the Son of God appear.

Rejoice, rejoice! EmmanuelShall come to thee, O Israel.

O come, O come, Thou Lord of Might,Who to Thy tribes, on Sinai's height,In ancient times didst give the law,In cloud, and majesty, and awe. Refrain

O come, Thou Wisdom from on high,And order all things, far and nigh;To us the path of knowledge show,And cause us in her ways to go. Refrain

O come, Desire of nations, bindIn one the hearts of all mankind;Bid Thou our sad divisions cease,

And be Thyself our King of peace. Refrain

Here We Come A-Wassailing

Here we come a-wassailing among the leaves so green;Here we come a-wandering, so fair to be seen.

(REFRAIN) Love and joy come to you, and to you our wassail, too.

And God bless you and send you a Happy New YearAnd God bless you and send you a Happy New Year

We are not daily beggars that beg from door to door;But we are neighbours' children whom you have seen before. RefrainWe have a little purse made of ratching leather skin;We want a little sixpence to line it well within. RefrainGod bless the master of this house, likewise the mistress, too;

And all the little children that round the table go. Refrain

O Holy Night

O holy night! The stars are brightly shining,It is the night of the dear Saviour's birth.Long lay the world in sin and error pining.

Till He appeared and the Spirit felt its worth.A thrill of hope the weary world rejoices,For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn.Fall on your knees! Oh, hear the angel voices!O night divine, O night when Christ was born;O night, O holy night, O night divine!O night, O holy night, O night divine!

Truly He taught us to love one another,

His law is love and His gospel is peace.Chains he shall break, for the slave is our brother.And in his name all oppression shall cease.Sweet hymns of joy in grateful chorus raise we,With all our hearts we praise His holy name.Christ is the Lord! Oh praise his name for everHis power and glory ever more proclaim!His power and glory ever more proclaim!

Go, Tell It On The Mountain

(Refrain) Go, Tell It On The Mountain, Over the hills and everywhere;Go, Tell It On The Mountain That Jesus Christ is born

While shepherds kept their watching Over silent flocks by night,Behold throughout the heavens, There shone a holy light: (Refrain)

The shepherds feared and trembled When lo! above the earthRang out the angel chorus That hailed our Saviour's birth: (Refrain)

Down in a lowly manger Our humble Christ was bornAnd God send us salvation, That blessed Christmas morn: (Refrain)

Do 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 nightWith a tail as big as a kite,With 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 boy,Do you hear what I hear?A song, a song high above the trees

With 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 king,Do you know what I know?A Child, a Child shivers in the cold--

Let 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, everywhere,Listen 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.

Silver Bells

City sidewalks, busy sidewalks Dressed in holiday styleIn the air There's a feeling of ChristmasChildren laughing People passing

Meeting smile after smile And on ev'ry street corner you'll hear

(REFRAIN) Silver bells, silver bellsIt's Christmas time in the cityRing-a-ling, hear them singSoon it will be Christmas day

Strings of street lights Even stop lightsBlink a bright red and green

As the shoppers rush home with their treasuresHear the snow crunch See the kids bunchThis is Santa's big scene And above all this bustleYou'll hear (refrain)

The Christmas Song

Chestnuts roasting on an open fire

Jack Frost nipping at your noseYuletide carols being sung by a choirAnd folks dressed up like EskimosEverybody knows a turkey and someMistletoe help to make the season brightTiny tots with their eyes all aglowWill find it hard to sleep tonightThey know that Santa's on his wayHe's loaded lots of toys and goodies

On his sleighAnd ev'ry mother'sChild is gonna spy to see ifReindeer really know how to flyAnd so, I'm offering thisSimple phrase to kids fromOne to ninety-twoAltho' it's been said many times

Many ways; "Merry Christmas to you"

Theres a New Kid in Town

We're looking for the king, the new MessiahWe're following the star shining brighter.

"Old man, won't you help us if you can,"He shook his head but he pointed his hand.

There's a new kid in town,And he's lying in a manger down the road.There's a new kid in town,But he's just another baby I suppose,Heaven knows,

There's a new kid in town,Here in Bethlehem.

I see you've traveled far bearing treasureYou say these gifts are for the new King's pleasureI've heard that a king might comeBut up till now there hasn't been one.

Gesu Bambino

When blossoms flowered 'mid the snows upon a winter nightWas born the Child the Christmas Rose, The King of Love and LightThe angels sang, the shepherds sang, The grateful earth rejoiced

And at His blessed birth the stars Their exultation voiced.

O Come let us adore Him, O come let us adore HimO come let us adore Him, Christ the Lord.

Again the heart with rapture glows to greet the holy nightthat gave the world it's Christmas Rose, It's king of Love and Light

Let ev'ry voice acclaim His name, The grateful chorus swellFrom paradise to earth He came that we with Him might dwell

O come let us adore him O come let us adore Him

O come let us adore Him, Christ the Lord.

What Child Is This?

What child is this, who, laid to rest, On Mary's lap is sleeping?Whom angels greet with anthems sweet,While shepherds watch are keeping?

This, this is Christ the King, Whom shepherds guard and angels sing:Haste, haste to bring him laud, The babe, the son of Mary.

Why lies he in such mean estate Where ox and ass are feeding?Good Christian, fear: for sinners here The silent Word is pleading.This, this is Christ the King, Whom shepherds guard and angels sing:Haste, haste to bring him laud, The babe, the son of Mary.

So bring him incense, gold, and myrrh,

Come, peasant, king, to own him.the King of kings salvation brings, Let loving hearts enthrone him.Raise, raise, the song on high, The Virgin sings her lullaby:Joy, joy for Christ is born, The Babe, the Son of Mary!

Angels We Have Heard on High

Angels we have heard on high,Singing sweetly oer the plainsAnd the mountains in replyEchoinging their joyous strains.Gloria in excelsis Deo.Gloria in excelsis Deo.Shepherds, why this jubilee?Why your joyous strains proong.

What the gladsome tiding beWhich inspire your heavenly songGloria in excelsis Deo.Gloria in excelsis Deo.Come to Bethlehem and see

We Three Kings of Orient Are

We three kings of Orient areBearing gifts we traverse afar.Field and fountain, moor and mountain,

Following yonder star.ChorusO star of wonder, star of night,Star with royal beauty bright,Westward leading, still proceeding,Guide us to thy perfect Light.

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

King forever, ceasing neverOver us all to reign.(Chorus)

Let It Snow!

Oh, the weather outside is frightful,But the fire 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,And I brought some corn for popping;The lights are turned way down low,Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow.When we finally say good night,How I'll hate going out in the storm;But if you really hold me tight,All the way home I'll be warm.

The fire is slowly dying,And, my dear, we're still good-bye-ing,But as long as you love me so.Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow.

Rocking Around the Christmas Tree

Rocking around the Christmas treeat the Christmas party hopMistletoe hung where you can seeevery couple tries to stopRocking around the Christmas tree,let the Christmas spirit ringLater we'll have some pumpkin pieand we'll do some caroling.You will get a sentimental

feeling when you hearVoices singing let's be jolly,deck the halls with boughs of hollyRocking around the Christmas tree,have a happy holidayEveryone dancing merrilyin the new old-fashioned way.

Sleigh Ride

Just hear those sleigh bells jingle-ingRing ting tingle-ing tooCome on, it's lovely weatherFor a sleigh ride together with you

Outside the snow is fallingAnd friends are calling "You Hoo"Come on, it's lovely weatherFor a sleigh ride together with y1ou

Giddy-yap giddy-yap giddy-yap let's goLet's look at the snowWe're riding in a wonderland of snow

Giddy-yap giddy-yap giddy-yap it's grandJust holding your handWe're gliding along with the songOf a wintry fairy land

Our cheeks are nice and rosyAnd comfy cozy are weWe're snuggled up together like twoBirds of a feather would be

Let's take the road before usAnd sing a chorus or twoCome on, it's lovely weatherFor a sleigh ride together with you

There's a birthday party at the home of Farmer Gray

It'll be the perfect ending of a perfect dayWe'll be singing the songs we love to sing without a single stopAt the fireplace while we watch the chestnuts popPop! Pop! Pop!

There's a happy feeling nothing in the world can buyWhen they pass around the coffee and the pumpkin pieIt'll nearly be like a picture print by Currier and IvesThese wonderful things are the thingsWe remember all through our lives
