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

We three kings of orient are
Field and fountain,
Moor and mountain,
Following yonder star.
O star of wonder, star of night,
Star with royal beauty bright,
Westward leading, still proceeding
Guide us to that perfect Light.

We three kings of Orient are
Bearing gifts we traverse afar
Field and fountain
Moor and mountain,
Following yonder star

O Rejoice, rejoice
Westward leading, still proceeding,
Guide us to thy perfect Light
Star of wonder
Star so bright

Silent night, holy night
All is calm, all is bright
Round yon 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 afar
Heavenly hosts sing alleluia
Christ the Savior, is born!
Christ the Savior, is born!

Silent night, holy night
Son of God, love's pure light
Radiant beams from thy holy face
With the dawn of redeeming grace
Jesus, Lord, at thy birth
Jesus, Lord, at thy birth

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

Come they told me,
pa rum pum pum pum
A new born King to see,
pa rum pum pum pum
Our finest gifts we bring,
pa rum pum pum pum
To lay before the King,
pa rum pum pum pum,
rum pum pum pum,
rum pum pum pum,

So, to honor Him,
pa rum pum pum pum,
When we come.

Little Baby,

I am a poor boy too,
pa rum pum pum pum
I have no gift to bring,
pa rum pum pum pum
Lyrics
That's fit to give the King,
pa rum pum pum pum
rum pum pum pum,
rum pum pum pum,

Shall I play for you,
pa rum pum pum pum,
On my drum?
Mary nodded,
pa rum pum pum pum,
The ox and lamb kept time,
pa rum pum pum pum

I played my drum for Him,
pa rum pum pum pum
I play me best for Him,
pa rum pum pum pum,
rum pum pum pum,

Then He smiled at me,
pa rum pum pum pum
Me and my drum

You better watch out
You better not cry
You better not pout
I'm telling you why
Santa Claus is coming to town
Santa Claus is coming to town
Santa Claus is coming to town

He's making a list
He's checking it twice
Gonna find out who's naughty or nice
Say it now,
Santa Claus is coming to town
Santa Claus is coming to town
Santa Claus is coming to town

He sees you when you're sleepin'
He knows when you're awake,
Yes he does
He knows when you've been bad or good
So you better be good
LyricsYou better be good, you better be good

You better watch out
You better not cry
You better not pout
Say, I'm telling you why
Come on now,
Santa Claus is coming to town.
Santa Claus is coming to town
Santa Claus is coming to town
Oh yeah

He sees you when you're sleepin'
He knows when you're awake,
Yes he does
He knows when you've been bad or good,
So you better be good
You better be good, you better be good
For goodness sake

Little tin horns, little toy drums.
Got Rudy-toot-toots
And some rummy tum tums.
Santa Claus is coming to town.
Santa Claus is coming to town, look out
Santa Claus is coming to town.

Here he comes kids
Can't stop the man no how
He remembers every little thing
You did all year
All those kind unspoken words
Keep up the good work guys
Yep, pretty soon now

Chestnuts roasting on an open fire
Jack Frost nipping at your nose
Yuletide carols being sung by a choir
And folks dressed up like Eskimos

And everybody knows
A turkey and some mistletoe
Help to make the season bright
Tiny tots with their eyes all aglow
Will find it hard to sleep tonight

They know that Santa's on his way
He's loaded lots of toys
And goodies on his sleigh
And ev'ry mother's child is gonna spy
To see if reindeer really know how to fly

And so,
I'm offering this simple phrase
To kids from one to ninety-two
Altho' it's been said
Many times, many ways;
"Merry Christmas to you"
And so,
I'm offering this simple phrase
To kids from one to ninety-two
Altho' it's been said
Many times, many ways;
"Merry Christmas to you"
"Merry Christmas to you"

Oh yes,
Say it now

Morning has broken,
Like the first morning
Blackbird has spoken,
Like the first bird

Praise for the singing,
Praise for the morning
Praise for them springing
Fresh from the world

Sweet the rain's new fall,
Sunlit from heaven
Like the first dewfall,
On the first grass
Praise for the sweetness
Of the wet garden
Sprung in completeness
Where his feet pass
Lyrics
Mine is the sunlight,
Mine is the morning
Born of the one light,
Eden saw play

Praise with elation,
Praise every morning
God's re-creation
Of the new day

And so this is Christmas
And what have you done?
Another year over
And a new one just begun

And so this is Christmas
I hope you have fun
The near and the dear ones
The old and the young
A very Merry Christmas
And a Happy New Year
Let's hope it's a good one
Without any fear

And so this is Christmas
For weak and for strong
For rich and the poor ones
The road is so long
And so Happy Christmas
For black and for white
For yellow and red ones
LyricsLet's stop all the fights

A very Merry Christmas
And a Happy New Year
Let's hope it's a good one
Without any fear

And so this is Christmas
And what have we done?
Another year over
And a new one just begun
And so Happy Christmas
We hope you have fun
The near and the dear ones
The old and the young

A very Merry Christmas
And a Happy New Year
Let's hope it's a good one
Without any fear

And so happy Christmas
We hope you have fun
The near and the dear ones
The old and the young
We wish you a very Merry Christmas
And a Happy New Year
Let's hope it's a good one
Without any fear

The sun is shining
The grass is green
The orange and palm trees sway.
There's never seen such a day
In Beverly Hills L.A.
But it's December the 24th
And I am longing to be up North.

I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
Just like the ones I used to know.
Where the tree tops 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.

Yes
I'm dreaming of that white Christmas
LyricsThere's nothing like
That newly fallen snow
Treetops glisten,
And children all listen
Hear some sleigh bells in the snow.
You know it's so

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
May every Christmas Day be
May all your Christmases
Be any color you like

Where 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,
Merry and bright.
And may all your Christmases be
May all your Christmases be
May all your Christmases be white

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 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 tiding of the same
How that in Bethlehem was born
The Son of God by name
O tidings of comfort and joy
Comfort and joy
O tidings of comfort and joy....
And Joy....

Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock
Jingle bells swing and jingle bells ring
Snowin' and blowin' up bushels of fun
Now the jingle hop has begun

Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock
Jingle bells chime in jingle bell time
Dancin' and prancin' in
Jingle Bell Square
In the frosty air

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

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

LyricsWhat a bright time, it's the right time
To rock the night away
Jingle bell time is a swell time
To go glidin' in a one-horse sleigh

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

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 the Virgin's womb

Joyful, all ye nations, rise,
Join the triumph of the skies
Pleased as man with man to dwell
Jesus, our Emmanuel!
LyricsHark! the herald angels sing
Glory to the new-born King!

Hail the Heaven-born Prince of Peace
Hail the Son of Righteousness
Light and life to all He brings
Risen with healing in His wings

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

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 ev'ry street corner you'll hear

Silver bells, silver bells
It's Christmas time in the city
Ring-a-ling, hear them sing
Soon it will be Christmas day

[Spoken:]
Yes, I remember
The silver bells of my youth.
From the streets of Brooklyn
They rang up through my window,
And made me smile
Lyrics
Strings of street lights
Even stop lights
Blink a bright red and green
As the mallers 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'll hear Silver bells, silver bells
It's Christmas time in the city
Ring-a-ling, hear them sing
Soon it will be Christmas day
Soon it will be Christmas day

Look at us now,
Part of it all
In spite of it all,
We're still around

Lovers in love,
Just like we were
Being apart's a lonely sound

When people ask how we stay together
I say you never let me down
And you make it feel like Christmas
Even when things go wrong
I hear the sound of Christmas in your song
All year long
Yes, you know that I do

Look at the sun
Shining on me
Nowhere could be a better place

LyricsLovers in love,
That's what we are
I reach for that star out there in space

'Cause you make it feel like Christmas
Even when things go wrong
I hear the sound of Christmas in your song
All year long
And you know that's it true

Sleepy we are,
But happy together
Sounds of forever
Greet the day
So wake up the kids,
Put on some tea
Light up the tree,
It's Christmas day

Yeah, you make it feel like Christmas
Even when things go wrong
I hear the sound of Christmas in your song
All year long
Yes you know that I do
All year long
Light up the tree,
It's Christmas time

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 Soul felt its worth

A thrill of hope
The weary soul 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 divine,
O night when Christ was born
O night,
O holy night,
O night divine!
O night when Christ was born
