Mary’s Boy Child

Long time ago in BethlehemSo the Holy Bible say,Mary’s Boy Child, Jesus Christ,Was born on Christmas Day Hark, now hear the angels sing,A new King born today,And man will live for ever more,Because of Christmas Day

Trumpets sound and angels singListen to what they say That man will live for ever more,Because of Christmas Day

While shepherds watched their flocks by night,They see a bright new shining starThey hear a choir singThe music seemed to come from afar

Now Joseph and his wife MaryCame to Bethlehem that night, They found no place to bear her child,Not a single room was in sight.

Hark, now hear the angels sing,A new King born today,And man will live for ever more,Because of Christmas Day

Trumpets sound and angels singListen to what they say That man will live for ever more,Because of Christmas Day

Hark, now hear the angels sing,A new King born today,And man will live for ever more,Because of Christmas Day

Trumpets sound and angels singListen to what they say That man will live for ever more,Because of Christmas Day

By and by they found a little nookIn a stable all forlorn, And in a manger cold and dark,Mary's little boy was born.Long time ago in BethlehemSo the Holy Bible say,Mary’s Boy Child, Jesus Christ,Was born on Christmas Day

Hark, now hear the angels sing,A new King born today,And man will live for ever more,Because of Christmas Day

Trumpets sound and angels singListen to what they say That man will live for ever more,Because of Christmas Day

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!”

Rocking around the Christmas Tree

Rocking around the Christmas treeAt the Christmas party hopMistletoe hung where you can seeEv’ry couple tries to stop Rocking around the Christmas tree,Let the Christmas spirit ringLater we’ll have some pumpkin pieAnd we’ll do some caroling.

You will get a sentimentalFeeling when you hearVoices singing let’s be jolly,Deck the halls with boughs of holly Rocking around the Christmas tree,Have a happy holidayEveryone dancing merrilyIn the new old-fashioned way.

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.

Jingle-Bell Rock

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 glidin' in a one-horse sleigh.

Giddy-up jingle horse; pick up your feet;

Jingle around the clock.

Mix and mingle in a jinglin' beat;

That's the jingle-bell rock.

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 glidin' in a one-horse sleigh.

Giddy-up jingle horse; pick up your feet;

Jingle around the clock.

Mix and mingle in a jinglin' beat;

That's the jingle-bell

That's the jingle-bell

That's the jingle-bell rock.

When Santa got stuck up the chimney

When Santa got stuck up the chimneyHe began to shoutYou girls and boys won’t get any toysIf you won’t pull me out.

My beard is blackThere’s soot in my sack,My nose is tickling tooWhen Santa got stuck up the chimneyAtchoo, atchoo, atchoo

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.

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.

Away in a manger(Jazz)

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 lay

The little Lord Jesus asleep on the hay.

The cattle are lowing, the baby awakes,

But little Lord Jesus, no crying He makes

I love Thee, Lord Jesus! look down from the sky,

And stay by my side until morning is nigh.
