Bing Crosby
Written by: Dick Smith/Felix Bernard 1934 Sleigh bells ring Are you listenin' In the lane Snow is glistening A beautiful sight We're happy tonight Walking in a winter wonderland. Gone away is the bluebird Here to stay is a new bird He sings a love song As we go along Walking in a winter wonderland In the meadow we can build a snowman Then pretend that he is Parson Brown He'll say: Are you married? We'll say: No man But you can do the job When you're in town Later on We'll conspire As we dream by the fire To face unafraid The plans that we've made Walking in a winter wonderland. [Sleigh bell ring] are ya listen' [In the lane] snow is glissing A beautiful sight, we're happy tonight, walkin' in the winter wonderland. [Gone away is the blue bird,] Here to stay is the new bird He sings a love song As we go along Walkin' in a winter wonderland. In the meadow we can build a snowman And pretend that he's a circus clown [We'll have lots of fun with mister snowman] Yes, until the other kidies knock him down. Later on, we'll conspire As we dream by the fire, To face unafraid, The plans that we've made, Walkin' in a winter wonderland. Walkin' in a winter wonderland. |

O holy night
the stars are brightly shining It is the night of the dear Saviour's birth! Long lay the world in sin and error pining 'till He appeared and the soul felt it's worth! A thrill of hope the weary world rejoices, for yonder breaks a new an' glorious morn! Fall on your knees O hear the angel voices O night divine O night, when Christ was born O night divine O night, O night divine! Fall on your knees O hear the angel voices O night divine O night, when Christ was born O night divine O night, O night divine! O holy night O night divine Music by Adolphe Charles Adam, 1803-1856 Words by Placide Cappeau de Roquemaure, 1847 - Tr. John Sullivan Dwight |

Let me tell you a tale that is often told
In the great Celestial Hall All about an angel only four years old The littlest angel of all How all day he would play with a little box That to others had no words Oh, but there were treasures in this little box The treasures he brought from Earth Just a butterfly with golden wings A little piece of a hollow log Two shiny stones from a river bank And the worn out strap of his faithful dog Then the angels all heard that the holy child Would be born in Bethlehem And they all brought present for the holy child And each gift was a heavenly gem Then the littlest angel put his little box With the presents fine and wrapped And the littlest angel sat alone and cried For his gift was so meager and bad Just a butterfly with golden wings A little piece of a hollow log Two shiny stones from a river bank And the worn out strap of his faithful dog But the Lord chose the gift of the little box That the child had blessed with love And it started glowing that very night It became the star up above When you see that star as it shines on high In the great Celestial Hall You will know the proudest angel in the sky Is the littlest angel of all With his butterfly with golden wings A little piece of a hollow log Two shiny stones from a river bank And the worn out strap of his faithful dog |

Oh, the weather outside is frightful
But the fire is so delightful And since we've no place to go Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow. It doesn't show signs of stopping And I brought some corn for popping The lights are turned way down low Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow. When we finally kiss good night How I'll hate going out in the storm But if you really hold me tight All the way home I'll be warm. The fire is slowly dying And, my dear, we're still good-bye-ing But as long as you love me so. Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow When we finally kiss good night How I'll hate going out in the storm But if you really hold me tight All the way home I'll be warm. The fire is slowly dying And, my dear, we're still good-bye-ing But as long as you love me so. Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow. |

Written by: Steve Nelson/Walter Rollins 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 that 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 I'll be back again some day. |

Bing Crosby
Written by: Noel Regney/Gloria Shayne Peaked Billboard position #2 in 1963 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. |
