It's the most wonderful time of the year
With the kids jingle belling And everyone telling you "be of good cheer" It's the most wonderful time of the year It's the hap-happiest season of all With those holiday greetings And gay happy meetings when friends come to call It's the hap-happiest season of all There'll be parties for hosting Marshmallows for toasting And caroling out in the snow There'll be scary ghost stories And tales of the glories Of Christmases long, long ago It's the most wonderful time of the year There'll be much mistletoeing And hearts will be glowing when loved ones are near It's the most wonderful time of the year There'll be parties for hosting Marshmallows for toasting And caroling out in the snow There'll be scary ghost stories And tales of the glories Of Christmases long, long ago It's the most wonderful time of the year There'll be much mistletoeing And hearts will be glowing when loved ones are near It's the most wonderful time It's the most wonderful time It's the most wonderful time It's the most wonderful time of the year |

Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens,
Bright copper kettles and warm woollen mittens, Brown paper packages tied up with strings, These are a few of my favourite things. Cream coloured ponies and crisp apple strudels, Doorbells and sleigh-bells and schnitzel with noodles, Wild geese that fly with the moon on their wings, These are a few of my favourite things. Girls in white dress with blue satin sashes, Snowflakes that stay on my nose and eye-lashes, Silver white Winters that melt into Springs, These are a few of my favourite things. When the dog bites, When the bee stings, When I'm feeling sad, I simply remember my favourite things, And then I don't feel, so bad. |

Chestnuts roastin' on an open fire
Jack Frost nippin' at your nose Yuletide carols being sung by a choir And folks dressed up like Eskimos Everybody knows A turkey and some mistletoe will help to make the season bright Tiny tots with their eyes all a-glow will find it hard to sleep tonight They know that Santa's on his way He's loaded lots of toys an' goodies on his sleigh And every mother's child is gonna spy To see if reindeer really know how to fly And so I'm offering this simple phrase to kids from one to ninety-two Although it's been said many times many ways Merry Christmas to you! And every mother's child is gonna spy To see if reindeer really know how to fly And so I'm offering this simple phrase to kids from one to ninety-two Although it's been said many times many ways Merry Christmas . . . to you! Music by Mel Torme with lyrics by Robert Wells, 1946 |

Christmas present, Christmas tree
Children's eyes are wide to see Santa's presents 'neath the tree All day asked for on his knee Christmas present, Christmas past From the presents which one's last Christmas future sure to be Looking underneath the tree For the present, look high, not low Christmas was a gift itself many years ago Christmas presents at the start Was a gift from someone's heart Christ is Christmas, that day is His That's what Christmas presents is |

Said the nightwind 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 oh 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 A child, a child, sleeping in the night He will bring us goodness and light He will bring us goodness and light Do you hear what I hear A child, a child, sleeping in the night He will bring us goodness and light He will bring us goodness and light Listen Do you hear what I hear Do you hear what I hear Listen ------------- Lyrics Powered by LyricFind Written By BERNARD, FELIX / SMITH, RICHARD B. <i>Lyrics © Warner/Chappell Music, Inc., REGENT MUSIC CORPORATION</i> |

The first Noel the angel did say
Was to certain poor shepherds In fields as 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 And by the light of that same star Three wise men came From the country far To seek for a King was their intent And to follow the star Wherever it went. Noel, Noel Noel, Noel Born is the King of Israel Noel, Noel Noel, Noel Born is the King of Israel Born is the King of Israel ------------- Lyrics Powered by LyricFind Written By CALELLO, CHARLES <i>Lyrics © EMI Music Publishing, Sony/ATV Music Publishing LLC, Warner/Chappell Music, Inc.</i> |

Just hear those sleigh bells jingling, ring-ting-tingling, too. Come on, it's lovely weather for a sleigh ride together with you. Outside the snow is falling and friends are calling, Yoo-hoo! Come on, it's lovely weather for a sleigh ride together with you. Giddy-yap, giddy-yap, giddy-yap, let's go, Let's look at the show We're riding in a wonderland of snow. Giddy-yap, giddy-yap, giddy-yap, it's grand, Just holding your hand. We're gliding along with a song of a wintery fairyland. Our cheeks are nice and rosy and comfy-cozy are we. We're snuggled up together like two birds of a feather would be. Let's take that road before us and sing a chorus or two. Come on, it's lovely weather for a sleigh ride together with you. There's a birthday party at the home of Farmer Gray. It'll be the perfect ending of a perfect day. We'll be singing the songs we love to sing without a single stop, At the fireplace while we watch the chestnuts pop. Pop! Pop! Pop! There's a happy feeling nothing in the world can buy, When they pass around the coffee and the pumpkin pie. It'll nearly be like a picture print by Currier and Ives. These wonderful things are the things we remember all through our lives! Just hear those sleigh bells jingling, ring-ting-tingling, too. Come on, it's lovely weather for a sleigh ride together with you. Come on, it's lovely weather for a sleigh ride together with you - |

City sidewalks, 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 hear Silver bells, silver bells, it's Christmastime in the city. Hear the bells go ding-a-ling, hear them ring, Soon it will be Christmas day. Strings of 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 hear Silver bells, silver bells, it's Christmastime in the city. Hear the bells go ding-a-ling, hear them ring, Soon it will be Christmas day. |

Hark the herald angels sing, "Glory to the new born 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 new born king" Christ, by highest heaven 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 Immanuel Hark the herald angels sing, "Glory to the new born king" Hail, the heaven born prince of peace, hail the son of righteousness Light and life to all He brings, risen with healing in His wings 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 Hark the herald angels sing, "Glory to the new born king" |

I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
Just like the ones I used to know Where the treetops glisten, and children listen To hear sleigh bells in the snow I'm dreaming of a white Christmas With every Christmas card I write May your days be merry and bright And may all your Christmases be white I'm dreaming of a white Christmas With every Christmas card I write May your days be merry and bright And may all your Christmases be white |
