TEC Christmas Party Playlist

WELCOME AND SING ALONG!

Lo, how a Rose e’er blooming

●

● #1 Lo, how a Rose e’er blooming from tender stem hath sprung!

●

● Of Jesse’s lineage coming, as men of old have sung.●

● It came, a floweret bright, ●

● Amid the cold of winter, When half spent was the night.

● #2 Isaiah ’twas foretold it, the Rose I have in mind;

● With Mary we behold it, the virgin mother kind.●

● To show God’s love aright, ●

● she bore to men a Savior, When half spent was the night.

● #3 The shepherds heard the story proclaimed by angels bright,

●

● How Christ, the Lord of glory was born on earth this night.

●

● To Bethlehem they sped ●

● and in the manger found Him, As angel heralds said.●

● #4 This Flower, whose fragrance ten der with sweetness fills the air,

●

● Dispels with glorious splendor the darkness everywhere;●

● True Man, yet very God, ●

● from sin and death He saves us, And lightens every load.●

● #5 O Savior, Child of Mary, who felt our human woe,●

● O Savior, King of glory, who dost our weakness know;●

● Bring us at length we pray, ●

● to the bright courts of Heaven, And to the endless day!●

●Rudolph The Red-Nosed Reindeer

● [Verse 1]● ● 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●

[Chorus]

●

● Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer● ● Had a very shiny nose●

● And if you ever saw it● ● You would even say it glows

● All of the other reindeer● ● Used to laugh and call him names●

● They never let poor Rudolph● ● Play in any reindeer games●

[Verse 2]

●

● Then one foggy Christmas Eve●

● Santa came to say●

● Rudolph with your nose so bright●

● Won't you guide my sleigh tonight

● [Outro]●

● Then how the reindeer loved him● ● As they shouted out with glee●

● Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer● ● You'll go down in history●

Jingle Bells

● Dashing through the snow● ● In a one horse open sleigh ● ● O'er the fields we go●

● Laughing all the way

● Bells on bob tails ring● ● Making spirits bright● ● What fun it is to laugh and sing●

● A sleighing song tonight●

● Oh, 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●

● 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.●

● A day or two ago,●

● The story I must tell●

● I went out on the snow,●

● And on my back I fell;

● A gent was riding by●

● In a one-horse open sleigh,●

● He laughed as there I sprawling lie,●

● But quickly drove away.●

Winter Wonderland

● Sleigh bells ring, are you listening?●

● In the lane, snow is glistening●

● A beautiful sight, we're happy tonight●

● Walking in a Winter Wonderland●

[Verse 2]

●

● Gone away is the blue bird●

● Here to stay is the new bird●

● He's singing our song as we go along●

● Walking in a Winter Wonderland●

[Chorus 1]

●

● 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●

[Verse 3]

●

● Later on we'll conspire●

● As we dream by the fire●

● To face unafraid the plans that we made●

● Walking in a Winter Wonderland●

[Chorus 2]

●

● 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 ●

● Until the other kiddies knock him down●

O Come, O Come Emmanuel

● O come, O come, Em-man-u-el●

● And ransom captive Is---rael●

● That mourns in lonely ex--ile here●

● Un-til the Son of God a-ppear●

● Re-joice! Re-joice! Em-man-u-el●

● Shall come to thee, O Is--ra-el.●

● Rejoice! Re-joice! Em-man-u-el●

● Shall come to thee, O Israel.

●

●

● And death's dark shadows put to flight.●

● Re-joice! Re-joice! Em-man-u-el●

● Shall come to thee, O Is--ra-el.●

● O come, Thou Key of David, come,● ● And open wide our heavenly home;●

● Make safe the way that leads on high,● ● And close the path to mi--sery.●

● Re-joice! Re-joice! Em-man-u-el●

● Shall come to thee, O Is--ra-el.●
