It came upon the 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 menFrom heavens all gracious King!"The world in solemn stillness layTo hear the angels sing.

Still through the cloven skies they come,With peaceful wings unfurled;And still their heavenly music floatsO'er all the weary world:Above its sad and lowly plainsThey bend on hovering wing,And ever o'er its Babel soundsThe blessed angels sing.

O' ye beneath life's crushing load,Whose forms are bending low,Who toil along the climbing wayWith painful steps and slow;Look now, for glad and golden hoursCome swiftly on the wing;Oh rest beside the weary roadAnd hear the angels sing.

For lo! the days are hastening on,By prophets seen of old,When with the ever-circling yearsShall come the time foretold,When the new heaven and earth shall ownThe Prince of Peace, their King,And the whole world send back the songWhich now the angels sing.

Silent night! Holy night!All is calm, all is bright,Round young virgin mother and child!Holy infant so tender and mild,Sleep in heavenly peace!Sleep in heavenly peace!

Silent night! Holy night!Shepherds quake at the sight!Glories stream from heaven above,

Heavenly hosts sing Hallelujah!Christ the Savior, is born!Christ the Savior, is born!

Silent night! Holy night!Son of God, love's pure lightRadiant beams from thy holy faceWith the dawn of redeeming grace,Jesus, Lord, at thy birth,Jesus, Lord, at thy birth!

Rockin Around the Christmas Tree

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 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 boy,Do 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 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."

Frosty the snowmanWas a jolly happy soulWith a corncob pipeAnd a button nose andTwo eyes made out of coal

Frosty the snowmanIs a fairy tale they sayHe was made of snowBut the children knowHow he came to life one day

There must have been some magicIn that old silk hat they foundFor when they placed it on his headHe began to dance around

Frosty the snowmanWas alive as he could beAnd the children sayHe could laugh and playJust the same as you and me

Frosty the snowmanKnew the sun was hot that daySo he said, "Let's runAnd we'll have some funNow before I melt away"

Down to the villageWith a broomstick in his handRunning here and thereAll around the squareSaying "Catch me if you can"

He led them down the streets of townRight to the traffic copAnd he only paused a moment whenHe heard him holler "Stop!"

Frosty the snowmanHad to hurry on his wayBut he waved goodbye saying, "Don't you cryI'll be back again some day"Thumpity, thump, thumpThumpity, thump, thumpLook at Frosty go

Thumpity, thump, thumpThumpity, thump, thumpOver the hills of snow

I'm dreaming of a white Christmas Just like the ones I used to knowWhere the treetops glisten,and children listen To hear sleigh bells in the snow

I'm dreaming of a white Christmas With every Christmas card I write May your days be merry and bright And may all your Christmases be white

White Christmas

REPEAT





Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock Jingle bells swing and jingle bells ring Snowing and blowing up bushels of fun Now the jingle hop has begun.

Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rockJingle bell chime in jingle bell time Dancing and prancing in Jingle Bell Square In the frosty air.

What a bright time, it's the right timeTo rock the night away Jingle bell time is a swell timeTo go gliding in a one-horse sleigh

Giddy-up jingle horse, pick up your feet Jingle around the clock Mix and a-mingle to jingling feetThat's the jingle bell rock.

I saw Mommy kissing Santa ClausUnderneath the mistletoe last night.She didn't see me creep

Down the stairs to have a peep;She thought that I was tucked upin my bedroom fast asleep.

Then, I saw Mommy tickle Santa ClausUnderneath his beard so snowy white;

Oh, what a laugh it would have beenIf Daddy had only seenMommy kissing Santa Claus last night.

I Saw Mommy Kissin Santa Claus

REPEAT

I'm dreaming tonight of a place I love. Even more than I usually do. And although I know it's a long road back, I promise you.

I'll be home for Christmas; You can count on me. Please have snow and mistletoe And presents on the tree.

Christmas Eve will find me Where the love-light gleams. I'll be home for Christmas If only in my dreams. I'll be home for Christmas;You can count on me.Please have snow and mistletoeAnd presents on the tree.

Christmas Eve will find meWhere the love-light gleams.I'll be home for ChristmasIf only in my dreams.

I'll Be Home for Christmas

Joy to the world! The Lord is comeLet earth receive her King!Let every heart prepare Him room

And heaven and nature singAnd heaven and nature singAnd heaven, and nature sing

Joy to the earth! The Savior reignsLet men their songs employWhile fields and floodsRocks, hills and plainsRepeat the sounding joyRepeat the sounding joyRepeat, repeat the sounding joy

No more let sins and sorrows growNor thorns infest the groundHe comes to make His blessing flowFar as the curse is foundFar as the curse is foundFar as, far as the curse is found

He rules the world with truth and graceAnd makes the nations proveThe glories of His righteousnessAnd wonders of His loveAnd wonders of His loveAnd wonders, of His love

Joy to the World

Santa came to say: "Rudolph with your nose so bright won't you guide my sleigh tonight?"

Then how the reindeer loved him as they shouted out with glee"Rudolph, the red-nosed reindeer you'll go down in history."

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!

No 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 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 fire is slowly dying.And my dear we're still goodbye-ing.But as long as you love me so,Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow!

When we finally 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 fire is slowly dying,And my dear we're still goodbye-ing,But as long as you love me so,Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow!



You know Dasher and Dancer and Prancer and Vixen, Comet and Cupid And Donner and Blitzen. But do you recall The most famous reindeer of all?

Rudolph, the red-nosed reindeer had a very shiny nose and if you ever saw it you would even say it glows. All of the other reindeer used to laugh and call him names they never let poor Rudolph join in any reindeer games.Then one foggy Christmas eve

O little town of Bethlehem,How still we see the lie!Above thy deep and dreamless sleep.The silent stars go by,Yet in thy dark streets shinethThe everlasting Light,The hopes and fears of all the years,Are met in thee tonight.

For Christ is born of MaryAnd gathered all aboveWhile mortals sleep, the angels keepTheir watch of wondering loveO morning stars, togetherProclaim the holy birthAnd praises sing to God the KingAnd peace to men on earth

How silently, how silentlyThe wondrous gift is given!So God imparts to human heartsThe blessings of his heaven.No ear may hear his coming,But in this world of sin,Where meek souls will receive him still,The dear Christ enters in.

Where children pure and happy,Pray to the blessed Child.Where misery cries out to thee,Son of the mother mild;Where charity stands watching,And faith holds wide the door,The dark night wakes, The glory breaks,And Christmas comes once more.

O holy Child of BethlehemDescend to us, we prayCast out our sin and enter inBe born in us todayWe hear the Christmas angelsThe great glad tidings tellO come to us, abide with usOur Lord Emmanuel!

O Little Town of Bethlehem





Have yourself a merry little Christmas,Let your heart be lightFrom now on, our troubles will be out of sight

Have yourself a merry little Christmas,Make the yuletide gay,From now on,our troubles will be far away.

Once again as in olden days,Happy golden days of yore.Faithful friends who are dear to us Gather near to us once more.

Through the years we all will be together, If the fates allow Hang a shining star upon the highest bough.And have yourself a merry little Christmas now.

Once again as in olden days,Happy golden days of yore.Faithful friends who are dear to us,Gather near to us once more.

Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas

I hear the bellsSaying Christmas is nearThey ring out to tell the worldThat this is the season of cheer

I hear a choir singing sweetly somewhereAnd a glow fills my heartI'm at peace with the worldAs the sound of their singing fills the air

Oh why can't every day be like ChristmasWhy can't that feeling go on endlesslyFor if everyday could be just like ChristmasWhat a wonderful world this would be

I hear a child telling Santa what to bringAnd the smile upon his tiny faceIs worth more to me than anything

If Every Day was Like Christmas




Deck the halls with boughs of holly, Fa la la la la, la la la la. Tis the season to be jolly, Fa la la la la, la la la la.

Don we now our gay apparel, Fa la la, fa la la, la la la. Troll the ancient Yuletide carol, Fa la la la la, la la la la.

See the blazing Yule before us, Fa la la la la, la la la la. Strike the harp and join the chorus,Fa la la la la, la la la la.

Follow me in merry measure, Fa la la la la, la la la la. While I tell of Yuletide treasure, Fa la la la la, la la la la.

Fast away the old year passes, Fa la la la la, la la la la. Hail the new, ye lads and lasses, Fa la la la la, la la la la.

Sing we joyous, all together, Fa la la, fa la la, la la la. Heedless of the wind and weather, Fa la la la la, la la la la.

I'll have a blue Christmas without you; I'll be so blue just thinking about you. Decorations of red on a green Christmas tree Won't mean a thing dear if you're not here with me.

When those blue snowflakes start fallingthat's when those blue memories start calling.You'll be doing all right

with your Christmas of white.But I'll have a blue, blue blue blue Christmas.

I'll have a blue Christmas without you; I'll be so blue just thinking about you. You'll be doing all rightwith your Christmas of white. But I'll have a blue, blue blue blue Christmas.But I'll have a blue, blue blue blue Christmas.

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, you dear old manWhisper what you'll bring to me;Tell me if you can.

When the clock is striking twelve,When I'm fast asleepDown the chimney, broad and black,With your pack you'll creep

All the stockings you will findHanging in a rowMine will be the shortest one,You'll be sure to know

Bobby wants a pair of skates,Suzy wants a sledNellie wants a picture book,Yellow, blue, and redNow I think I'll leave to youWhat to give the restChoose for me, dear Santa Claus;You will know the best.

Jolly Old Saint Nicholas

O Holy Night, The stars are brightly shiningIt is the night of our dear Savior's birthLong lay the world in sin and error pining'Til He appeared and the soul felt its worthA thrill of hope the weary world rejoicesFor yonder breaks a new and glorious morn.

Fall on your knees O hear the angels voices.O night divine O night when Christ was bornO night divine, O night, O night divine.

Led by the light of Faith serenely beaming,With glowing hearts by His cradle we stand.So led by light of a star sweetly gleaming,Here came the wise men from Orient land.The King of Kings lay thus in lowly manger;In all our trials born to be our friend.

He knows our need, to our weakness is no stranger,Behold your King! Before Him lowly bend!Behold your King! Before Him lowly bend!

Truly He taught us to love one another;His law is love and His gospel is peace.Chains shall He break for the slave is our brother;And in His name all oppression shall cease.Sweet hymns of joy in grateful chorus raise we,Let all within us praise His holy name.

Christ is the Lord! O praise His Name forever,His power and glory evermore proclaim.O night divine, O night, O night divine

O Holly Night





Hark! The herald angels sing,

"Glory to the newborn 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 newborn King!"

Christ, by highest heaven adored,

Christ, the everlasting Lord!

Late in time behold him come,

Offspring of the Virgin's womb.

Veiled in flesh the God head see,

Hail the incarnate Deity!

Pleased as man with man to dwell,

Jesus our Emmanuel.



Mild he lays his glory by,

Born that men no more may die,

Born to raise the sons of earth,

Born to give them second birth.

Risen with healing in his wings,

Light and life to all he brings,

Hail! The Sun of Righteousness!

Hail the heaven-born Prince of Peace!

Hark! The herald angels sing,

"Glory to the newborn king.

Come, Desire of nations come,

Fix in us Thy humble home;

Oh, to all Thyself impart,

Formed in each believing heart!

Hark! the herald angels sing,

"Glory to the new-born king;

Peace on earth and mercy mild,

God and sinners reconciled!"



Hark the Herald Angels Sing

Have a holly, jolly Christmas;It's the best time of the yearI don't know if there'll be snow,but have a cup of cheer.

Have a holly, jolly Christmas;And when you walk down the streetSay 'Hello' to friends you knowand everyone you meet.

Oh, ho, the mistletoehung where you can see;Somebody waits for you;Kiss her once for me.

Have a holly jolly Christmas,and in case you didn't hear,Oh by golly, have a holly,jolly Christmas this year.

Have a Holly Jolly Christmas

City sidewalks, busy sidewalks.Dressed in holiday styleIn the airThere's a feelingof ChristmasChildren laughingPeople passingMeeting smile after smileand on every street corner you'll hear

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

Strings of street lightsEven stop lightsBlink a bright red and greenAs the shoppers rushhome with their treasures

Hear the snow crunchSee the kids bunchThis is Santa's big sceneAnd above all this bustleYou'll hear

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

Silver Bells





Page 16

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas Ev'rywhere you go; Take a look in the five-and-ten, glistening once again With candy canes and silver lanes aglow.

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas, Toys in ev'ry store, But the prettiest sight to see is the holly that will beOn your own front door.

A pair of hopalong boots and a pistol that shoots Is the wish of Barney and Ben; Dolls that will talk and will go for a walk

Is the hope of Janice and Jen; And Mom and Dad can hardly wait for school to start again.

It's beginning to look a lot like ChristmasEv'rywhere you go;There's a tree in the Grand Hotel, one in the park as well,The sturdy kind that doesn't mind the snow.

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas;Soon the bells will start,And the thing that will make them ring is the carol that you singRight within your heart.

It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas

O come, O come, Emmanuel

And ransom captive Israel

That mourns in lonely exile here

Until the Son of God appear

Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel

Shall come to thee, O Israel.

O come, Thou Rod of Jesse, free

Thine own from Satan's tyranny

From depths of Hell Thy people save

And give them victory o'er the grave



O come, Thou Day-Spring, come and cheer

Our spirits by Thine advent here

Disperse the gloomy clouds of night

And death's dark shadows put to flight.



O come, Thou Key of David, come,

And open wide our heavenly home;

Make safe the way that leads on high,

And close the path to misery.



O come, O come, Thou Lord of might,

Who to Thy tribes, on Sinai's height,

In ancient times did'st give the Law,

In cloud, and majesty and awe.



O Come O Come Emmanuel

God rest ye merry, gentlemen

Let nothing you dismay

Remember, Christ, our Saviour

Was born on Christmas day

To save us all from Satan's power

When we were gone astray

O tidings of comfort and joy,

Comfort and joy

O tidings of comfort and joy

From God our Heavenly Father

A blessed Angel came;

And unto certain Shepherds

Brought tidings of the same:

How that in Bethlehem was born

The Son of God by Name.


Comfort and joy


And when they came to Bethlehem

Where our dear Saviour lay,

They found Him in a manger,

Where oxen feed on hay;

His Mother Mary kneeling down,

Unto the Lord did pray.


Comfort and joy


Now to the Lord sing praises,

All you within this place,

And with true love and brotherhood

Each other now embrace;

This holy tide of Christmas

All other doth deface.


Comfort and joy


God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen
