AWAY IN A MANGER
Away in a manger no crib for a bed The little Lord Jesus lay down his sweet head
The stars in the sky looked down where he lay The little Lord Jesus asleep on the hay
The cattle are lowing the poor baby wakes But little Lord Jesus no crying he makes I love thee Lord Jesus look down from the sky
And stay by my cradle til morning is nigh.
O LITTLE TOWN OF BETHLEHEM
O little town of Bethlehem
How still we see thee lie
Above thy deep and dreamless sleep
The silent stars go by
Yet in thy dark streets shineth
The everlasting light
The hopes and fears of of all our years
Are met in thee tonight
For Christ is born of Mary
And gathered all around
While mortals sleep the angels keep
Their watch of wondering love
O morning stars together
Proclaim the holy birth
And praises sing to God the king
And peace to men on earth
THE FIRST NOEL
The first noel the angels did say
Was to certain poor shepards in fields where they lay
In fields where they lay keeping their sheep
On a cold winters' 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
HARK THE HERALD
Hark the herald angels sing
Glory to the newborn king
Peace on earth and mercy mild
God and sinners reconciled
Joyful all you nations rise Join the trumph of the skies
With the angelic host proclaim
Christ is born in Bethlehem
Hark the herald angels sing glory to the newborn king
Christ by highest heaven adored
Christ the everlasting Lord
Late in time behold him come
Offspring of the virgin's womb
Veiled in flesh the god-head see
Hail the incarnate deity
Hark the herald angels sing glory to the newborn king.
GOD REST YE MERRY GENTLEMEN
God rest ye merry gentlemen let nothing you dismay
For Jesus Christ our savior was born on Christmas day
To save us all from Satan's power
When we have gone astray
O tidings of comfort & joy Comfort & joy
O tidings of comfort & joy
From God our heavenly father a blessed angel came
And unto certain shepards brought tidings of the same
How that in Bethlehem was born
The son of God by name
O tidings of comfort & joy Comfort & joy
O tidings of comfort & joy
JINGLE BELLS
Dashing through the snow
In a one horse open sleigh
O'er the fields we go
Laughing all the way
Bells on bobtails ring
Making spirits bright
What fun it is to ride and sing
A sleighing song tonite
Jingle bells Jingle bells jingle all the way
O what fun it is to ride in a one horse open sleigh
A day or two ago
I thought I'd take a ride
And soon Miss Fanny Bright
Was seated by my side
The horse was lean and lank,
Misfortune seemed his lot
He got into a drifted bank
And then we got upsot
Jingle bells Jingle bells jingle all the way
O what fun it is to ride in a one horse open sleigh
