Let It Snow! Let It Snow! 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’ve bought 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 good-bying,But as long as you love me so,Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!

Hark! the herald angels sing,“Glory to the newborn King!”Peace on earth, and mercy mild,God and sinners reconciledJoyful, all ye nations, rise,Join the triumph of the skies;With th’ angelic host proclaim,“Christ is born in Bethlehem.” Hark! the herald angels sing,“Glory to the newborn King!”

Christ, by highest heav’n adored:Christ, the everlasting Lord;Late in time behold him come,Offspring of the favored one.Veil’d in flesh, the Godhead see;Hail, th’incarnate Deity:Pleased, as man, with men to dwell,Jesus, our Emmanuel!Hark! the herald angels sing,“Glory to the newborn King!”

Hail! the heav’n born Prince of peace!Hail! the Son of Righteousness!Light and life to all he brings,Risen with healing in his wingsMild 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.Hark! the herald angels sing,“Glory to the newborn King!”

The First Noel the angel did sayWas to certain poor shepherdsin fields as they lay;In fields as they lay, keeping their sheep,On a cold winter's night that was so deep.

Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel,Born is the King of Israel.

They looked up and saw a starShining in the east beyond them far,And to the earth it gave great light,And so it continued both day and night.

And by the light of that same starThree wise men came from country far;To seek for a king was their intent,And to follow the star wherever it went.

This star drew nigh to the northwest,O'er Bethlehem it took it rest,And there it did both stop and stayRight over the place where Jesus lay.

Then entered in those wise men threeFull reverently upon their knee,and offered there in his presenceTheir gold, and myrrh, and frankincense.

Then let us all with one accordSing praises to our heavenly Lord;That hath made heaven and earth of naught,And with his blood mankind hath bought

Th e Fi rst Noel


O Holy NightO Holy night!The stars are brightly shining.It is the night of our dear Saviour’s birth. Long lay the worldIn sin and error pining,Till He appeared and the soul felt its worth. A thrill of hopeThe weary world rejoicesFor yonder breaks a new and glorious morn. Fall on your knees!Oh, hear the angel voices!Oh night, divine! O night,When Christ was born. O night divine, O night,O night divine.

Fros ty Th e SnowmanFrosty the Snowman was a jolly happy soulWith 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 knowHow he came to life one day.There must have been some magic inThat old silk hat they foundFor when they placed it on his headHe began to dance around.Oh, Frosty the Snowman was alive as he could be,And the children sayHe could laugh and playJust the same as you and me.Thumpety, thump thump, Thumpety, thump thumpLook at Frosty go.Thumpety, thump thump, Thumpety, thump thump,Over the hills of snow.

We Wish You a Merry ChristmasWe wish you a Merry Christmas;We wish you a Merry Christmas;We wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

Good tidings we bring to you and your kin;Good tidings for Christmas and a Happy New Year.

Oh, bring us a figgy pudding;Oh, bring us a figgy pudding;Oh, bring us a figgy pudding and a cup of good cheer: Refrain

We won’t go until we get some;We won’t go until we get some;We won’t go until we get some, so bring some out here: Refrain

We wish you a Merry Christmas;We wish you a Merry Christmas;We wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
