White Christmas

I’m dreaming of a white Christmas Just like the ones I used to know 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 and bright And may all your Christmases be white.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.

I’ll have a blue Christmas without you;I’ll be so blue thinking about you.Decorations of redon a green Christmas treeWon’t mean a thing ifyou’re not here with me.

I’ll have a blue Christmas, that’s certain;And when that blue heartache starts hurting,You’ll be doing all rightwith your Christmas of white,But I’ll have a blue, blue Christmas.

Silent NightSilent 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, Heav’nly hosts sing “Alleluia” Christ, the Saviour, is born! Christ, the Saviour, 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! Darkness flies, all is light! Shepherds hear the angels sing: “Halleluja! Hail the king!” Christ the Saviour is born! Christ the Saviour is born!

Silent night! Holy night! Child of heav’n! O how bright Thous didst smile when Thou wast born! Blessed be that happy morn. Full of heavenly joy, Full of heavenly joy.

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.

Let It Snow, Let It Snow

What Child is this, who laid to rest,On Mary’s lap is sleeping?Whom angels greet with anthems sweetWhile shepherds watch are keeping?This, this is Christ the KingWhom shepherds guard and angels sing.Haste, haste to bring Him laud,The Babe, the Son of Mary.

Why lies He in such mean estateWhere ox and ass are feeding?Good Christian, fear: for sinners here,The silent Word is pleading.This, this is Christ the KingWhom shepherds guard and angels sing.Haste, haste to bring Him laud,The Babe, the Son of Mary.

Nails, spear, shall pierce Him through,The Cross be borne, for me, for you:Hail, hail, the Word made flesh,The Babe, the Son of Mary!

This, this is Christ the KingWhom 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.This, this is Christ the KingWhom shepherds guard and angels sing.Haste, haste to bring Him laud,The Babe, the Son of Mary.

Raise, raise, the song on high,The Virgin sings her lullaby:Joy joy for Christ is born,The Babe, the Son of Mary!This, this is Christ the KingWhom shepherds guard and angels sing.Haste, haste to bring Him laud,The Babe, the Son of Mary.

What Child Is This?

Christmas makes you feel emotional It may bring parties or thoughts devotional Whatever happens or what may be, Here is what Christmas time means to me.

City sidewalk, 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’ll hear:

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’ll hear:

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

Silver Bells

Holiday WishesMay the beauty of the holidays

shine throughout the seasonfor you and yours.

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, Walking in a winter wonderland.In the meadow we can build a snowman, Then pretend that he is Parson Brown He’ll say: Are you married? We’ll say: No man, But you can do the job When you’re in town.

Later on, we’ll conspire, As we dream by the fire To face unafraid, The plans that we’ve made, Walking in a winter wonderland.In the meadow we can build a snowman, And pretend that he’s a circus clown We’ll have lots of fun with mister snowman, Until the other kids 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.

Winter Wonderland

It’s Beginning to Look Like Christmas

It’s beginning to look a lot like ChristmasEv’rywhere you goTake a look in the five-and-ten,Glistening once againWith candy canes and silver lanes aglow.

It’s beginning to look a lot like ChristmasToys in ev’ry storeBut the prettiest sight to seeIs the holly that will beOn your own front door.

A pair of hopalong boots and a pistol that shootsIs the wish of Barney and BenDolls that will talk and will go for a walk

Is the hope of Janice and JenAnd mom and dad can hardly wait for school to start again.

It’s beginning to look a lot like ChristmasEv’rywhere you goThere’s a tree in the Grand Hotel,On ein the park as wellThe sturdy kind that doesn’t mind the snow.

It’s beginning to look a lot like ChristmasSoon the bells will startAnd the thing that will make them ringIs the carol that you singRight within your heart.

Frosty the snowman was a jolly happy soul, With a corncob pipe and a button nose and two eyes made out of coal.

Frosty the snowman is a fairy tale, they say, He was made of snow but 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.

O, Frosty the snowman was alive as he could be, And the children say he could laugh and play just the same as you and me. Frosty the snowman knew the sun was hot that day, So he said, “Let’s run and we’ll have some fun now before I melt away.”

Down to the village, with a broomstick in his hand, Running here and there all around the square saying, Catch me if you can.

He led them down the streets of town right to the traffic cop. And he only paused a moment when he heard him holler “Stop!”

For Frosty the snow man had to hurry on his way, But he waved goodbye saying, “Don’t you cry, I’ll be back again some day.”

Thumpetty thump thump, thumpety thump thump, Look at Frosty go.

Thumpetty thump thump, thumpety thump thump, Over the hills of snow.

Frosty The Snowman

We’re hoping all our clients andfriends have a holiday season

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

For Christ is born of Mary,And, gathered all aboveWhile mortals sleep, the angels keepTheir watch of wondering love.O morning stars, togetherProclaim the holy birth.And praises sing to God the King.And 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 Bethlehem,Descend to us, we pray;Cast out our sin and enter in;Be born in us today!We hear the Christmas angelsThe great glad tidings tell;O come to us, abide with us,Our Lord Emmanuel!

O Little Town of Bethlehem

God Rest Ye Merry GentlemenGod 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.

In Bethlehem, in Jewry, This blessed Babe was born, And laid within a manger, Upon this blessed morn; That which His Mother Mary, Did nothing take in scorn. 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. O tidings of comfort and joy, Comfort and joy, O tidings of comfort and joy.

“Fear not,” then said the Angel, “let nothing you affright, This day is born a Saviour Of pure Virgin bright, To free all those who trust in Him

From Satan’s power and might.” O tidings of comfort and joy,

Comfort and joy, O tidings of comfort and joy.

The shepherds at those tidings Rejoiced much in mind, And left their flocks a-feeding, In tempest, storm, and wind: And went to Bethlehem straightway, The Son of God to find. O tidings of comfort and joy, Comfort and joy, O tidings of 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. O tidings of comfort and joy, Comfort and joy, O tidings of 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. O tidings of comfort and joy, Comfort and joy, O tidings of comfort and joy.

No crying He makes.I love Thee, Lord Jesus;Look down from the skyAnd stay by my cradleTill morning is nigh.

Be near me, Lord Jesus;I ask Thee to stayClose by me foreverAnd love me I pray!Bless all the dear chil-drenIn Thy tender care,And fit us for Heaven

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.

Chestnuts roasting on an open fire Jack Frost nipping at your nose Yule-tide carols being sung by a choir And folks dressed up like Eskimos.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 every 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 Although it’s been said Many times, many ways Merry Christmas to you.

Then one foggy Christmas EveSanta came to say Rudolph with your nose so brightWon’t you guide my sleigh tonight?Then all the reindeer loved himAnd they shouted out with glee “Rudolph the red-nosed reindeerYou’ll go down in history!”

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 kite With a tail as big as a kite

Said the little lamb to the shepherd boy Do you hear what I hear? Ringing thru the sky, shepherd boy Do you hear what I hear? A song, a song High above the tree With a voice as big as the sea With a voice as big as 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 ev’rywhere Listen to what I say! Pray for peace, people ev’rywhere Listen to what I say! The Child, the Child Sleeping in the night He will bring us goodness and light He will bring us goodness and light

Do You Hear What I Hear?

Here comes Santa Claus! Here comes Santa Claus! Right down Santa Claus Lane! Vixen and Blitzen and all his reindeer are pulling on the reins.

Bells are ringing, children singing; All is merry and bright. Hang your stockings and say your prayers, ‘Cause Santa Claus comes tonight.

Here comes Santa Claus! Here comes Santa Claus! Right down Santa Claus Lane! He’s got a bag that is filled with toys for the boys and girls again.

Hear those sleigh bells jingle jangle, What a beautiful sight. Jump in bed, cover up your head, ‘Cause Santa Claus comes tonight

Here Comes Santa Claus

It Came Upon The Midnight Clear It came upon the midnight clear,That glorious song of old,From angels bending near the earthWith news of joy foretold,“Peace on the earth, good will to menFrom heaven’s all gracious King.”The world in solemn stillness lay,To hear the angels sing.

Still through the cloven skies they come,Love’s banner all unfurled;And still their heavenly music floatsOver all the weary world.Above its sad and lowly plainsOld echoes plaintive ring,And ever over its Babel soundsThe blessed angels sing.

Yet with the woes of sin and strifeThe world has suffered long;Beneath the Angel-strain have rolledTwo thousand years of wrong;And man at war with man hears not

The love-song which they bring;O! hush the noise, ye men of strife,And hear the Angels sing.

O ye, beneath life’s crushing loadWhose 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;O 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.

Let there be peace on earthAnd let it begin with me.Let there be peace on earthThe peace that was meant to be.With God as our fatherBrothers all are we.Let me walk with my brotherIn perfect harmony.

Let peace begin with meLet this be the moment now.With every step I takeLet this be my solemn vow.To take each moment And live each moment With peace eternally.Let ther be peace on earth,And let it begin with me.

Let There Be Peace on Earth

O Come All Ye FaithfulJoyful and triumphant,O come ye, O come ye to Bethlehem.Come and behold Him,Born the King of Angels;O come, let us adore Him,O come, let us adore Him,O come, let us adore Him,Christ the Lord.

O Sing, choirs of angels,Sing in exultation,Sing all that hear in heaven God’s holy word.Give to our Father glory in the Highest;

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

All Hail! Lord, we greet Thee,Born this happy morning,O Jesus! for evermore be Thy name adored.Word of the Father, now in flesh appearing;O come, let us adore Him,O come, let us adore Him,O come, let us adore Him,Christ the Lord.
