O’er the fields we go, Laughing all the way;
Bells on bobtail ring, Making spirits bright
What fun it is to ride and sing, A sleighing song tonight!

CHORUS:
Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells! Jingle all the way!
Oh what fun it is to ride in a one horse open sleigh!
Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells! Jingle all the way!
Oh what fun it is to ride in a one horse open sleigh!

Hark! The Herald Angel Sing

Hark! The herald angels sing “Glory to the newborn King!

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

Christ the highest heav’n adored; Christ, the everlasting Lord;

Late in time behold Him come, Offspring of the favored one.
Veiled in flesh the Godhead see; Hail the incarnate Deity,
Pleased as man with men to dwell, Jesus our Emmanuel!
Hark the herald angels sing, “Glory to the newborn King!”

Mild 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.
Risen with healing in His wings, Light an dLife to all He brings,
Hail the Sun of Righteousness! Hail the heaven-born Prince of Peace!
Hark the herald angels sing, “Glory to the newborn King!”
 Joy to the World!

Joy to the world! The Lord is come;

Let earth receive her King;
Let every heart, prepare Him room
And Heav’n and nature sing, And Heav’n and nature sing,
And heav’n, and heav’n and nature sing.

Joy to the earth! The Savior reigns,

Let men their songs employ,
While field and floods, rocks hills and plains
Repeat the sounding joy, Repeat the Sounding joy
Repeat, repeat the sounding joy!

No more let sins and sorrows grow

Nor thorns infest the ground;
He comes to make, His blessings flow,
Far as the curse is found, Far as the curse is found,
Far as, far as, the curse if found.

He rules the world with truth and grace,

And makes the nations prove,
The glories of His righteousness,
And wonders of His love, and Wonders of His lovek,
And Wonders, wonders of his love!

 Away in a Manger

Away in a manger, no crib for a bed,

The little Lord Jesusa, laid down his sweet head;
The star in the bright sky looked down where He lay,
The little Lord Jesus a sleep on the hay.

The cattle are lowing, the sweet baby wakes,

But little Lord Jesus no crying He makes.
I love You Lord Jesusm, look down from the sky
And stay by my side until morning is night.

Be near me, Lord Jesus, I ask You to stay

Close by me forever, and love me, I pray.
Bless all the dear children, in Thy tender care,
And take us to heaven, to live with You there.

Angels We Have Heard on High

Angels we have heard on high,

Sweetly singin o’er the plains
And the mountains in reply
Echoing their joyous strains.

Glo----- ----- ----- ri-a in excelsis De-o,

Glo----- ----- ----- ri-a in excelsis De - o.

Come to Bethlehem and see

Christ whose birth the angels sing;
Come adore on bended knee,
Christ the Lord, their new-born King.

Glo----- ----- ----- ri-a in excelsis De-o,

Glo----- ----- ----- ri-a in excelsis De - o.
 God Rest Ye Merry, Gentlemen

God rest ye merry gentlemen, Let nothing you dismay,

Remember Christ, the Savior, Was born on Christmas Day
To save us all form Satan’s pow’r When we had gone a stray
O’ Tidings of comfort and joy, comfort and joy.
O’ tidings of comfort and Joy!

God our heavenly Father, A blessed angel came,

And Unto certain shepherds, brought tidings of the same;
How that in Bethlehem was born, the Son of God by Name
O’ Tidings of comfort and joy, comfort and joy.
O’ tidings of comfort and Joy!

The First Noel

The first Noel, the angel did say,

Was to certain poor shepherds in fields where they lay;
In fields where 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 star

Shining in the east, beyond them far
And to the earth, it gave great light,
And so it continued both day and night.

Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel

Born is the King of Israel.
 Do You Hear What I Hear?

Said the night wind to the little lamb,

Do you see what I see
Way up in the sky, little lamb,
Do you see what I see
A star, a star, dancing in the night
With a tail as big as a kite
With a tail as big as a kite

Said the little lamb to the shepherd boy,

Do you hear what I hear
Ringing through the sky, shepherd boy,
Do you hear what I hear
A song, a song, high above the trees
With a voice as big as the sea
With a voice as big as the sea

Said the shepherd boy to the mighty king,

Do you know what I know
In your palace warm, mighty king,
Do you know what I know
A Child, a Child shivers in the cold
Let us bring Him silver and gold
Let us bring Him silver and gold

Said the king to the people everywhere,

Listen to what I say
Pray for peace, people everywhere!
Listen to what I say
The Child, the Child, sleeping in the night
He will bring us goodness and light
He will bring us goodness and light
Dreidel, Dreidel, Dreidel

I have a little dreidel

I made it out of clay
And when it's dry and ready
Then dreidel I shall play!

chorus:
Oh - dreidel, dreidel, dreidel
I made it out of clay
And when it's dry and ready
Then dreidel I shall play!

It has a lovely body

With legs so short and thin
And when my dreidel’s tired
It drops and then I win!

chorus

My dreidel’s always playful

It loves to dance and spin
A happy game of dreidel
Come play now, let’s begin!

chorus
 Frosty the Snowman

Frosty the snowman was a jolly happy soul,

With 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
Know how he came to life one day.
There must have been some magic in that
Old silk hat they found.
For when they placed it on his head
He began to dance around.
O, Frosty the snowman
Was alive as he could be,
And the children say he could laugh
And play just the same as you and me.
Thumpetty thump thump,
Thumpety thump thump,
Look at Frosty go.
Thumpetty thump thump,
Thumpety thump thump,
Over the hills of snow.

Frosty the snowman

Knew the sun was hot that day,
So he said, "Let's run and
We'll have some fun
Now before I melt away."
Down to the village,
With a broomstick in his hand,
Running here and there all
Around the square saying,
Catch me if you can.
He led them down the streets of town
Right to the traffic cop.
And he only paused a moment when
He heard him holler "Stop!"
For Frosty the snow man
Had to hurry on his way,
But he waved goodbye saying,
"Don't you cry,
I'll be back again some day."
Thumpetty thump thump,
Thumpety thump thump,
Look at Frosty go.
Thumpetty thump thump,
Thumpety thump thump,
Over the hills of snow.
 Go Tell It On the Mountain

While shepherds kept their watching

Over silent flocks by night,
Behold throughout the heavens,
There shone a holy light:
Go, Tell It On The Mountain,
Over the hills and everywhere;
Go, Tell It On The Mountain
That Jesus Christ is born.

The shepherds feared and trembled

When lo! above the earth
Rang out the angel chorus
That hailed our Saviour's birth:
Go, Tell It On The Mountain,
Over the hills and everywhere;
Go, Tell It On The Mountain
That Jesus Christ is born.

Down in a lowly manger

Our humble Christ was born
And God send us salvation,
That blessed Christmas morn:
Go, Tell It On The Mountain,
Over the hills and everywhere;
Go, Tell It On The Mountain
That Jesus Christ is born.
 Jolly Old Saint Nicholas

Jolly old Saint Nicholas,

Lean your ear this way!
Don't you tell a single soul
What I'm going to say:
Christmas Eve is coming soon;
Now, you dear old man
Whisper what you'll bring to me;
Tell me if you can.

When the clock is striking twelve,

When I'm fast asleep
Down the chimney, broad and black,
With your pack you'll creep
All the stockings you will find
Hanging in a row
Mine will be the shortest one,
You'll be sure to know

Bobby wants a pair of skates,

Suzy wants a sled
Nellie wants a picture book,
Yellow, blue, and red
Now I think I'll leave to you
What to give the rest
Choose for me, dear Santa Claus;
You will know the best.
Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer

You know Dasher and Dancer

And Prancer and Vixen,
Comet and Cupid
And Donner and Blitzen.
But do you recall
The most famous reindeer of all?

Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer

(reindeer)
Had a very shiny nose
(like a light bulb)
And if you ever saw it
(saw it)
You would even say it glows
(like a flash light)
All of the other reindeer
(reindeer)
Used to laugh and call him names
(like Pinochio)
They never let poor Rudolph
(Rudolph)
Play in any reindeer games
(like Monopoly)

Then one foggy Christmas Eve

Santa came to say
(Ho Ho Ho)
Rudolph with your nose so bright
Won't you guide my sleigh tonight?
Then all the reindeer loved him
(loved him)
And they shouted out with glee
(yippee)
"Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer
(reindeer)
You'll go down in history!"
(like Columbus)
 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!

O! You better watch out!

You better not cry.
Better not pout, I'm telling you why.
Santa Claus is coming to town.
Santa Claus is coming to town.

O Chanekah

Oh Chanukah, Oh Chanukah
Come light the Menorah
Let's have a party
We'll all dance the Horah

Spin the whirling dreidels

All week long
Eating the sizzling latkes
Sing a happy song

Now light them tonight then

The candles all in a row
We tell the wondrous story of God in His glory
The wonders of long ago.
 Silver Bells

City sidewalk, busy sidewalks

Dressed in holiday style.
In the air there's
A feeling of Christmas.

Children laughing, people passing,

Meeting smile after smile,
And on every street corner you'll hear:

Silver bells, silver bells,

It's Christmas time in the city.
Ring-a-ling, hear them ring,
Soon it will be Christmas day.

City street lights,

Even stop lights,
Blink a bright red and green,
As the shoppers rush home
With their treasures.

Hear the snow crunch,

See the kids bunch,
This is Santa's big scene,
And above all this bustle you'll hear:

Silver bells, silver bells,

It's Christmas time in the city.
Ring-a-ling, hear them ring,
Soon it will be Christmas day.
