Three Wise Men

(1) Born a king on earth to reign,

A gift of gold I bring to crown him again

God has come to Earth

that all mankind may live.

Happy Christmas

Have a lovely Christmas!

Be full of Christmas cheer.

We wish you the best joy and zest

and a wonderful New Year.

Good King Wenceslas

Good King Wenceslas last looked out

On the Feast of Stephen

When the snow lay 'round about

Deep and crisp and even

Brightly shone the moon that night

Though the frost was cruel

When a poor man came in sight

Noel, Noel!

Noel, Noel!

Noel, Noel!

Noel, Noel!

Jesus was born on Christmas Day

Long ago and far away

Bells in the steeple ringing clear

Are wishing you a happy New Year

Ostinato – Happy Christmas! Happy

We're walking in the air,

We're floating in the moonlit sky;

The people far below are sleeping as we fly.

I'm holding very tight,

I'm riding in the midnight blue;

I'm finding I can fly so high above with you.

On across the world

We're surfing in the air,

We're swimming in the frozen sky,

We're drifting over icy

mountains floating by.

Suddenly, swooping low on an ocean deep,

Rousing up a might monster from his sleep.

We're walking in the air,

We're dancing in the midnight sky,

We wish you a merry Christmas

We wish you a merry Christmas

We wish you a merry Christmas

and a happy new year

Good tidings we bring to you and your kin

We wish you a merry Christmas

and a happy new year

Oh, bring us some figgy pudding

and a happy new year

We won't go until we get some

We won't go until we get some

We won't go until we get some

So bring it right here

Good tidings we bring to you and your kin

We wish you a merry Christmas and a happy

new year

Good tidings we bring to you and your kin

We wish you a merry Christmas

and a happy new year

The child is a king, the carolers sing

The old has passed, there's a new beginning

Dreams of Santa, dreams of snow

Fingers numb, faces aglow

Christmas time, mistletoe and wine

Children singing Christian rhyme

With logs on the fire and gifts on the tree

A time to rejoice in the good that we see

Children singing Christian rhyme

With logs on the fire and gifts on the tree

A time to rejoice in the good that we see

Silent night, Holy night

Aaah, Aaah,

It's a time for giving, a time for getting

A time for forgiving and for forgetting

Christmas is love, Christmas is peace

With logs on the fire and gifts on the tree

A time to rejoice in the good that we see

Descant Ending

Christmas time (Silent night)

mistletoe and wine (Holy night)

Children singing Christian rhyme

With logs on the fire and gifts on the tree

A time to rejoice in the good that we see

Everywhere children are laughing,

There’s a feeling of joy and good cheer

Round the world all the children are singing,

Getting ready for that time of the year

I’m dreaming of a white Christmas,

Just like the ones I used to know,

Where the tree tops glisten and children

listen to hear

Sleigh bells in the snow.

I’m dreaming of a white Christmas,

With ev’ry Christmas card I write

May your days be merry and bright

I’m dreaming of a white Christmas,

Just like the ones I used to know,

May your days be merry and bright,

And may all your Christmases be white.

May your days be merry and bright,

And may all your Christmases be white.

Dashing through the snow

In a one-horse open sleigh

O’er the fields we go

Laughing all the way

Bells on bobtail ring (ooh)

Making spirits bright (ooh)

What fun it is to ride and sing

A sleighing song tonight!

Jingle all the way.

Oh! What fun it is to ride (ahh)

In a one-horse open sleigh

Dashing through the snow (ooh)

We’ll take a cup o’ kindness yet,

For the sake of auld lang syne.

For auld lang syne, my dear,

Do They Know its Christmas Time?

It's Christmastime,

there's no need to be afraid

At Christmastime,

we let in light and we banish shade

And in our world of plenty

we can spread a smile of joy

Throw your arms

but when you're having fun

There's a world outside your window

And it's a world of dread and fear

Where the only water flowing

Is the bitter sting of tears

And the Christmas bells that ring there are

the clanging chimes of doom

Well tonight thank God

it's them instead of you

Do they know it's Christmastime at all?

Here's to you

Raise a glass for everyone

Here's to them

Underneath that burning sun

Do they know it's Christmastime at all?

Feed the world

Feed the world

Feed the world

Let them know it's Christmastime again

Feed the world

Let them know it's Christmastime again

Feed the world

Let them know it's Christmastime again

That’s the jingle bell rock.

When the winter light is falling,

And the streets are dark and grey.

See reflections in the water, winter day.

In the glow of every streetlamp, (ooh)

In the coming of the night (ooh)

Through the shifting of the shadows, winter

light (ooh, winter night)

But each footstep brings me closer (ooh)

And I know I’m not alone.

For the windows call a welcome,

And the lights will lead me home.

And the wind rides every hill.

Heads are lowered, fingers tingle, winter chill.

And I know I’m not alone. (ooh)

For the windows call a welcome,

And the lights will lead me home.

And I’ll sigh with relief as I walk

through that front door,

And I’ll drink that cup of chocolate

that I’ve been waiting for.

And I’ll smile with delight

as my fingers start to thaw,

When I’m coming home again.

Lights will lead me home.

Reindeer on the Roof

(Reindeer on the roof) Wake up, I think I hear

(They’re on the roof)

Santa and his eight reindeer

(They’re on the roof) I knew they would arrive

(They’re on the roof)

Lots of presents just for me.

(They’re on the roof)

They’ve loaded up the sleigh

(They’re on the roof)

Getting ready for this big day.

(I said the) Reindeer, the reindeer

Are on the roof

They’re on the roof.

I hear them dancing

(Reindeer on the roof) Wake up, I think I hear

(They’re on the roof)

Santa and his eight reindeer

(They’re on the roof) I knew they would arrive

(They’re on the roof)

I’m the luckiest kid alive!

Are on the roof. They’re on the roof.
