The Daily DispaTch Christmas songbook sunDay, December 2, 2012 3
Best wishes for the Christmas season from everyone at The Daily Dispatch! We hope our annual Christmas song-book inspires you and your loved ones to bring in the season with song.
We’ve included both traditional hymns and all-time favorite seasonal classics in this year’s songbook to offer something for everyone. You’ll also find seasonal recipes and tips for holiday celebrations.
It’s easy for the Christmas season to feel overwhelming. We can all become easily stressed out trying to balance the regular schedule of daily life — work, school, extracurricular activities, church — with all the additional demands of the season.
Will all the shopping, baking and wrapping get done on time? Can we manage to get a few days off from work to spend with family and friends? Whose house do we celebrate at on Christmas Day? Will the in-laws and
grandparents get mad if we’re not there on time?
Kids are the only ones who greet each Christmas season with the joy and hope we all want to have. They have been waiting with concealed anticipa-tion since Dec. 26 of last year, able to contain their excitement at seeing this festive time of the year come around again.
Amid all the travel planning, gift buying and other holiday preparations, take time to stop and relax. Gather some friends together for a caroling par-ty around the neighborhood. Spend an evening with the kids or the grandkids, sharing a cup of hot apple cider or a mug of hot chocolate. Snuggle by a cozy fire with some eggnog and sing a few of the songs you’ll find in these pages.
Hopefully they will rekindle that holiday spirit you used to have and remind you of the real reason for the season — the birth of Jesus Christ.
Rekindling your holiday spirit

Bring cheer to all those around you by serenading them with Christmas carols. Gather a group of friends, dress warmly, and have some fun.
Celebrate the season with a Christ-mas caroling party. This type of get-together is easy to pull off at the last minute, and it’s sure to bring joy to all involved. Follow the guidelines below for your own perfect caroling party.
• You can get together a group of friends on the spur of the moment
just by calling them or emailing them. Conversely, you can plan ahead and send out more formal invitations.
• Make sure that your guests dress for the weather, and that they wear appropriate walking shoes.
• As your guests arrive, give them a bite to eat and something to drink to keep them satiated during the caroling.
• Hand out song sheets or booklets, that you’ve prepared in advance.
• Set out at the designated time
to spread your Christmas cheer. In some instances, it’s a good idea to let your neighbors know that you’ll be caroling. That way, you’re guaranteed that people will be home to enjoy your singing, and they may even have a treat or two to share with your group.
• If desired, you can use your Christmas caroling party as a means to collect money or food donations for the charity of your choice.
• The caroling portion of the party should last between one and two
hours — use your own judgment and the stamina of your group to determine the length of your caroling party.
• Afterwards, thank your caroling friends with hot chocolate and Christ-mas cookies.
The beauty of this type of party is that you can repeat it multiple times throughout the month of December. Each time you host it, target a dif-ferent neighborhood, so that many people can enjoy your holiday cheer!

A14 SONGBOOK
By Clement Moore
‘Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the houseNot a creature was stirring, not even a mouse:The stockings were hung by the chimney with care,In hopes St. Nicholas soon would be there.
The children were nestled snug in their beds,While visions of sugar-plums danced in their heads;And Mamma in her kerchief, and I in my cap,Had just settled down for a long winter’s nap.
When out on the lawn there arose such a clatterI sprang from my bed to see what was the matter,Away to the window I flew like a flash,Tore open the shutters and threw up the sash.
The moon on the breast of the new-fallen snowGave a luster of midday to objects below,When, what to my wondering eyes should appear,But a miniature sleigh and eight tiny reindeer.
With a little old driver, so lively and quick,I knew in a moment it must be St. Nick.More rapid than eagles his coursers they came,And he whistled, and shouted, and called them by name.
Now Dasher! Now, Dancer! Now Prancer and Vixen!On, Comet! On, Cupid! On, Donner and Blizten!To the top of the porch! To the top of he wall!Now dash away! Dash away! Dash away all!
As dry leaves that before the wild hurricane flyWhen they meet with an obstacle, mount to the sky.So up to the house-top the coursers they flew,
With the sleigh full of toys, and St. Nicholas, too.
And then, in a twinkling, I heard on the roofThe prancing and pawing of each little hoof.As I drew in my head, and was turning around,Down the chimney St. Nicholas came with a bound.
He was dressed all in fur, from his head to his foot,And his clothes were all tarnished with ashes and soot;A bundle of toys he had flung on his back.And he looked like a peddler, just opening his pack.
His eyes - how they twinkled! His dimples how merry!His cheeks were like roses, his nose like a cherry!His droll little mouth was drawn like a bow,And the beard of his chin white as the snow.
The stump of a pipe he held tight in his teeth,And the smoke it encircled his head like a wreath;He had a broad face and a little round belly,That shook when he laughed , like a bowlful of jelly.
He was chubby and plump, a right jolly old elf,And I laughed when I saw him, in spite of myself;A wink of his eye and a twist of his head,Soon gave me to know I had nothing to dread.
He spoke not a word, but went straight to his work,And filled all the stockings; then turned with a jerk,And laying his finger aside of his nose,And giving a nod, up the chimney his rose.
He sprang to his sleigh, to his team gave a whistle,And away they flew like the down of a thistle,But I heard him exclaim, as he drove out of sight.
Happy Christmas to All and to All A Good Night.
