1. Rudolph the Red-Nosed ReindeerRudolph 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.

2. Santa Claus is Coming to TownOh! You better watch out, you better not cry, You better not pout, I’m telling you why: Santa Claus is coming to town!

He’s making a list, checking it twice,Gonna find out who’s naughty or nice.

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 reindeer, You’ll go down in history!”

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! Oh!

3. Jingle Bell Rock Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rockJingle bells swing and jingle bells ringSnowing and blowing up bushels of funNow the jingle hop has begun

Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rockJingle bells chime in jingle bell timeDancing 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 sleighGiddy-up jingle horse, pick up your feetJingle around the clock

Mix and a-mingle in the jingling feetThat’s the jingle bell,That’s the jingle bell,That’s the jingle bell rock

5. Winter WonderlandSleigh 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

4. Feliz NavidadFeliz NavidadFeliz NavidadFeliz Navidad, prospero año y felicidad [repeat}

I wanna wish You a Merry ChristmasI wanna wish You a Merry ChristmasI wanna wish You a Merry Christmas, from the bottom of my heart{repeat whole song}

In the meadow we can build a snowman (in the meadow we can build a snowman) And pretend that he’s a circus clown (and pretend that he’s a circus clown We’ll have lots of fun with mister snowman Until the other kids knock him down Sleigh bells ring (sleigh bells ring), are you listening? In the lane, snow is glistening A beautiful sight We’re happy tonight Walking in a winter wonderland Walking in a winter wonderland We’re walking in a winter wonderland, wonderland walking in a winter wonderland

8. O Holy NightO 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 Spirit felt its worth. A thrill of hope the weary world rejoices, For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn. Fall on your knees! Oh, hear the angel voices! O night divine, the night when Christ was born; O night, O holy night, O night divine! O night, O holy night, O night divine!

Led by the light of faith serenely beaming, With glowing hearts by His cradle we stand. O’er the world a star is sweetly gleaming, Now come the wisemen from out of the Orient land. The King of kings lay thus lowly manger; In all our trials born to be our friends. He knows our need, 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 he shall break, for the slave is our brother. And in his name all oppression shall cease. Sweet hymns of joy in grateful chorus raise we, With all our hearts we praise His holy name. Christ is the Lord! Then ever, ever praise we, His power and glory ever more proclaim! His power and glory ever more proclaim

9. Have Yourself a Merry Little ChristmasHave yourself a merry little Christmas, Let your heart be light From 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 miles away.

Here we are 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.
