Jingle Bells

Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way, Oh what fun it is to ride In a one-horse open sleigh, O jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way, Oh what fun it is to ride In a one-horse open sleigh!

Dashing through the snow In a one-horse open sleigh O’er the fields we go Laughing all the way. Bells on bob-tail ring, Making spirits bright What fun it is to ride and sing A sleighing song tonight. (repeat chorus)

Rudolph the Red-nosed Reindeer

Rudolph the Red-nosed Reindeer, had a very shiny noseAnd if you ever saw it, you would even say it glows.All of the other reindeer used to laugh and call him namesThey wouldn’t let poor Rudolph join in any reindeer games

Then one foggy Christmas Eve, 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 ReindeerYou’ll go down in history!”

Santa Claus is Coming to Town

You better watch out,You better not cry,Better not pout,I’m telling you why:Santa Claus is coming to town! He’s making a list and checking it twice,Gonna find out who’s naughty and nice.Santa Claus is coming to town!

He sees you when you’re sleeping,He knows when you’re awake.He knows if you’ve been bad or good,So be good for goodness sake! You better watch out,You better not cry,Better not pout,I’m telling you why:Santa Claus is coming to town!

Silent Night

Silent night! Holy night!All is calm, all is bright,Round the Virgin Mother and child,Holy infant, so tender and mild,Sleep in heavenly peace,Sleep in heavenly peace.

Silent night! Holy night!Guiding star; lend your lightSee the eastern wise men bring,Gifts and homage to our KingJesus Christ is here,Jesus Christ is here.

Silent night! Holy night!Wondrous star; lend your light;With the angels let us singHallelujahs to our KingJesus Christ is here,Jesus Christ is here.

I’m Dreaming ofa White Christmas

I’m dreaming of a white ChristmasJust like the ones I used to knowWhere the treetops glisten And children listenTo hear sleigh bells in the snow.

I’m dreaming of a white ChristmasWith every Christmas card I writeMay your days be merry and brightAnd may all your Christmases be white.

Lullaby Carol

Little Jesus, sweetly sleep, do not stir;We will lend a coat of fur.

We will rock you, rock you, rock you,We will rock you, rock you, rock you,

See the fur to keep you warmSnugly 'round your tiny form.

Mary’s little baby, sleep, sweetly sleep,Sleep in comfort, slumber deep.

We will rock you, rock you, rock you,We will rock you, rock you, rock you,

We will serve you all we can,Darling, darling little man

Away in a Manger(Traditional version)

Away in a manger, no crib for a bed,The little Lord Jesus laid down His sweet head.The stars in the bright sky looked down where he layThe little Lord Jesus asleep on the hay.

The cattle are lowing, the baby awakes,But little Lord Jesus, no crying He makesI love Thee, Lord Jesus! look down from the sky,And stay by my side until morning is nigh.

Be near me, Lord Jesus; I ask Thee to stay Close by me for ever, And love me, I pray,Bless all the dear children in Thy tender care,And fit us for heaven to live with Thee there.
