Everybody stops and stares at me These two teeth are gone as you can see I don’t know just who to blame for this catastrophe! But my one wish onChristmas Eve is as plain as it can be!

All I want for Christmas is my two front teeth, my two front teeth, see, my two front teeth!

Gee, if I could only have my two front teeth, then I could wish you “Merry Christmas.”

It seems so long sinceI could say, “Sister Susie sitting on a thistle!” Gosh oh gee, how happy I’d be, if I could only whistle (thhhh, thhhh)

Angels We Have Heard on High


We three kings of orient are,Bearing gifts we traverse afarField and fountain,Moor and mountain,Following yonder star.

O star of wonder, star of night,Star with royal beauty bright.Westward leading, still proceeding,Guide us to thy perfect light.

Born a King on Bethlehem’s plain,Gold I bring to crown Him againKing for ever, ceasing neverOver us all to reign.


Frankincense to offer have I,Incense owns a Deity nighPrayer and praising, all men raising,Worship Him, God most high.

O star of wonder, star of night,Star with royal beauty bright.Westward leading, still proceeding,Guide us to thy perfect light.Myrrh is mine,Its bitter perfume breathesA life of gathering gloom.Sorrowing, sighing,bleeding, dying,Sealed in the stone cold tomb.


Glorious now behold Him arise,King and God and Sacri� ce!Al-le-lu-ia, al-le-lu-ia,Heaven to earth replies.


We Three Kings OfOrient Are

See the blazing Yule before us, Fa la la la la, la la la la.Strike the harp and join the chorus,Fa la la la la, la la la la.Follow me in merry measure, Fa la la la la, la la la la.While I tell of Yuletide treasure,Fa la la la la, la la la la.

Fast away the old year passes, Fa la la la la, la la la la.Hail the new, ye lads and lasses,Fa la la la la, la la la la.Sing we joyous all together, Fa la la la la, la la la la.Heedless of the wind and weather,Fa la la la la, la la la la.

Winter WonderlandSleigh bells ring, are you listening?In the lane, snow is glisteningA beautiful sight,We’re happy tonightWalking 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 isParson BrownHe’ll say: Are you married? We’ll say: No man, But you can do the jobWhen you’re in town.

Later on, we’ll conspire,As we dream by the � re,To face unafraid

The plans that we’ve made, Walking in a winter wonderland.

In the meadow we can build a snowman, And pretend that he’s a circus clownWe’ll have lots of fun with mister snowman, Until the other children knock him down.

When it snows, ain’t it thrilling?Though your nose gets a chilling We’ll frolic and play,the Eskimo way, Walking in a winter wonderland.Walking in a winter wonderland, Walking in a winter wonderland.

Frosty the snowmanwas a jolly happy soul, with a corncob pipe and abutton nose, and two eyes made out of coal.

Frosty the snowman is afairy tale, they say, he was made of snow but the children knowhow he came to life one day.

There must have been some magic in that old silk hat they foundfor when they placed it onhis head, he began to dance around.

O, Frosty the snowman was as alive as he could be, and the children say hecould laugh and play just the same as you and me.

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 thestreets of town Right to the traf� c cop. And he only paused a moment when he heard him holler “Stop!”

For Frosty the snowman had to hurry on his way, but he waved goodbye saying, “Don’t you cry, I’ll be back again some day.”

Thumpetty thump thump, Thumpety thump thump, Look at Frosty go.

Thumpetty thump thump, Thumpety thump thump, Over the hills of snow.

Merry Christmas May the peace and joy of the holiday season

surround you.

You know Dasher and DancerAnd Prancer and Vixen,Comet and CupidAnd Donner and Blitzen.But do you recallThe most famous reindeer of all?

Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer(reindeer)Had a very shiny nose(like a light bulb)And if you ever saw it(saw it)You would even say it glows(like a � ash light)All of the other reindeer(reindeer)Used to laugh and call him names(like Pinochio)They never let poor Rudolph

(Rudolph)Play in any reindeer games(like Monopoly)

Then one foggy Christmas EveSanta came to say(Ho Ho Ho)Rudolph with your nose so brightWon’t you guide my sleigh tonight?Then all the reindeer loved him(loved him)And they shouted out with glee(yippee)“Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer(reindeer)You’ll go down in history!”(like Columbus)

God Rest Ye Merry, Gentlemen,Let nothing you dismay;Remember Christ, our Saviour,Was born on Christmas day,To save us all from Satan’s powerWhen we were gone astray.O tidings of comfort and joy,Comfort and joy,O tidings of comfort and joy.

In Bethlehem, in Jewry,This blessed Babe was born,And laid within a manger,Upon this blessed morn;That which His Mother Mary,Did nothing take in scorn.O tidings of comfort and joy,Comfort and joy,O tidings of comfort and joy.

From God our Heavenly Father,A blessed Angel came;And unto certain ShepherdsBrought tidings of the same:How that in Bethlehem was bornThe Son of God by Name.O tidings of comfort and joy,Comfort and joy,O tidings of comfort and joy.

“Fear not,” then said the Angel,“let nothing you affright,This day is born a SaviourOf pure Virgin bright,To free all those who trust in Him

From Satan’s power and might.”O tidings of comfort and joy,

Comfort and joy,O tidings of comfort and joy.

The shepherds at those tidingsRejoiced much in mind,And left their � ocks a-feeding,In tempest, storm, and wind:And went to Bethlehem straightway,The Son of God to � nd.O tidings of comfort and joy,Comfort and joy,O tidings of comfort and joy.

And when they came to BethlehemWhere our dear Saviour lay,They found Him in a manger,Where oxen feed on hay;His Mother Mary kneeling down,Unto the Lord did pray.O tidings of comfort and joy,Comfort and joy,O tidings of comfort and joy.

Now to the Lord sing praises,All you within this place,And with true love and brotherhoodEach other now embrace;This holy tide of ChristmasAll other doth deface.O tidings of comfort and joy,Comfort and joy,O tidings of comfort and joy.

Have a holly jolly Christmas,it’s the best time of the year.I don’t know if there’ll be snowbut have a cup of cheer.

Have a holly jolly Christmas,and when you walk down the streetSay hello to friends you know

and everyone you meet.Oh, Ho, the mistletoehung where you can see.Somebody waits for you,kiss her once for me.Have a holly, jolly Christmas,and in case you didn’t hear.O, by golly, have a holly jolly Christmas this year.

The Christmas SongChestnuts roasting on anopen � re, Jack Frost nipping at your nose,Yuletide carols beingsung by a choir, And folks dressed up like Eskimos.

Everybody knows a turkey and some mistletoe, Help to make the season bright.Tiny tots with their eyes all aglow,Will � nd it hard to sleep tonight.

They know that Santa’s onhis way; He’s loaded lots of toys and goodies on his sleigh. And every mother’s child isgoing to spy, To see if reindeer really knowhow to � y.

And so I’m offering this simple phrase, To kids from one to ninety-two, Although its been said many times, many ways, Merry Christmas to you!

Warm Holiday Wishes

It came upon the midnight clear, That glorious song of old, From angels bending near the earth,To touch their harps of gold:“Peace on the earth, good will to men,From heaven’s all gracious King;”The world in solemn stillness lay To hear the angels sing.

Still through the cloven skies they come,With peaceful wings unfurled;And still their heavenly music � oats O’er all the weary world:Above its sad and lowly plains They bend on hovering wing;And ever o’er its Babel sounds The blessed angels sing.

O ye, beneath life’s crushing load, Whose forms are bending low, Who toil along the climbing way, With painful steps and slow.Look now, for glad and golden hours Come swiftly on the wing, O rest beside the weary road, And hear the angels sing.

For lo! the days are hastening on, By prophets seen of old, When with the ever circling years,Shall come the time foretold,When the new heaven and earth shall ownThe Prince of Peace their King,And the whole world send back the song Which now the angels sing.

It Came Upon theMidnight Clear

O Holy NightO holy night,The stars are brightly shining;It is the night ofOur dear Savior’s birth!Long lay the worldIn sin and error pining,Till He appearedAnd the soul felt its worth.A thrill of hope,The weary world rejoices,For yonder breaksA new and 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!

Led by the light of FaithSerenely beaming,With glowing heartsBy His cradle we stand.So led by light of a starSweetly gleaming,Here came the wise menFrom Orient land.The King of Kings lay thusIn lowly manger,

In all our trialsBorn to be our Friend!He knows our need,To our weakness no stranger;Behold your King!Before the lowly bend!Behold your King! your King!Before Him bend.

Truly He taught usTo love one another;His law is love andHis gospel is peace.Chains shall He breakFor the slave is our brotherAnd in His nameAll oppression shall cease.Sweet hymns of joy inGrateful chorus raise we,Let all within usPraise His holy name!Christ is the Lord,Oh praise His name forever,His pow’r and glory evermore proclaimHis pow’r and gloryEvermore proclaim.


Have a safe and happy holiday season.Thank you for your patronage during the past year.

I’m dreaming of a white ChristmasJust like the ones I used to know,When the treetops glistenAnd children listenTo hear sleigh bells in the snow

I’m dreaming of a white ChristmasWith every Christmas card I write.May your days be merry and bright,And may all your Christmasesbe white.

Merry Christmas!

The � rst Noel the angels did say Was to certain poor shepherds in � elds as they lay; In � elds as 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 beyondthem far, And to the earth it gave great light, And so it continued both dayand night.

And by the light of that same star Three wise men came from country far; To seek for a king was their intent, And to follow the star wherever

it went. This star drew nigh to the northwest, O’er Bethlehem it took it rest, And there it did both stopand stay Right over the place whereJesus lay.

Then entered in those wisemen three Full reverently upon their knee, And offered there in his presence Their gold, and myrrh, and frakincense.

Then let us all with one accord Sing praises to our heavenly Lord; That hath made heaven and earth of naught, And with his blood mankindhath bought.

The First Noel


City sidewalk, busy sidewalksDressed in holiday style.In the air there’sA feeling of Christmas.

Children laughing, people passing,Meeting smile after smile,And on every street corner you’ll hear:

Silver bells, silver bells,It’s Christmas time in the city.Ring-a-ling, hear them ring,Soon it will be Christmas day.

City street lights,Even stop lights,Blink a bright red and green,As the shoppers rush homeWith their treasures.

Hear the snow crunch,See the kids bunch,This is Santa’s big scene,And above all this bustle you’ll hear:

Silver bells, silver bells,It’s Christmas time in the city.Ring-a-ling, hear them ring,Soon it will be Christmas day.

I’ll have a blue Christmas without you;I’ll be so blue thinkingabout you.Decorations of redon a green Christmas treeWon’t mean a thing ifyou’re not here with me.

I’ll have a blue Christmas, that’s certain;And when that blue heartache starts hurting,You’ll be doing all rightwith your Christmas of white,But I’ll have a blue, blue Christmas.

Blue Christmas


O little town of Bethlehem,How still we see thee lie.Above thy deep and dreamless sleepThe silent stars go by;Yet in thy dark streets shinethThe everlasting Light;The hopes and fears of all the yearsAre met in thee tonight.

For Christ is born of Mary,And, gathered all aboveWhile mortals sleep,the angels keepTheir watch of wondering love.O morning stars, togetherProclaim the holy birth.And praises sing to God the King.And peace to men on earth.

How silently, how silentlyThe wondrous gift is given!So God imparts to human heartsThe blessings of His heaven.

No ear may hear His coming;But in this world of sin,Where meek souls will receive Him,Still The dear Christ enters in.

Where children, pure and happy,Pray to the Blessed Child;Where misery cries out to thee,Son of the Mother mild;Where charity stands watching,And faith holds wide the door,The dark night wakes,the glory breaks,And Christmas comes once more.

O Holy Child of Bethlehem,Descend to us, we pray;Cast out our sin and enter in;Be born in us today!We hear the Christmas angelsThe great glad tidings tell;O come to us, abide with us,Our Lord Emmanuel!

Oh, the weather outsideis frightful,But the � re 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 � nally say good night,How I’ll hate going outin the storm;But if you really hold me tightAll the way home I’ll be warm.

The � re is slowly dying,And, my dear, we’re stillgood-bye-ing,But as long as you love me so.Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow.

Let It Snow, Let It Snow


Joy to the world! the Lord is come;Let earth receive her King; Let every heart prepare Him room,and heaven and nature sing, and heaven and nature sing, and heaven, and heaven and nature sing.

Joy to the earth! the Savior reigns;Let men their songs employ; while � elds and � oods, rocks, hills and plains Repeat the sounding joy, Repeat the sounding joy, Repeat, repeat the sounding joy.

No more let sins and sorrows grow,nor thorns infest the ground; He comes to make His blessing � owfar as the curse is found, far as the curse is found, far as, far as the curse is found.

He rules the world with truth and grace, and makes the nations prove the glories of His righteousness, and wonders of His love, and wonders of His love, and wonders, wonders ofHis love

Good King Wenceslas looked outOn the feast of Stephen,When the snow lay round about,Deep and crisp and even.Brightly shown the moon that night,Though the frost was cruel,When a poor man came in sight,Gathering winter fuel.

Hither, page, and stand by me.If thou know it telling:Yonder peasant, who is he?Where and what his dwelling?Sire, he lives a good league hence,Underneath the mountain,Right against the forest fenceBy Saint Agnes fountain.

Bring me � esh, and bring me wine.Bring me pine logs hither.Thou and I will see him dineWhen we bear the thither.

Page and monarch, forth they went,Forth they went togetherThrough the rude wind’s wild lamentAnd the bitter weather.

Sire, the night is darker now,And the wind blows stronger.Fails my heart, I know not how.I can go no longer.Ark my footsteps my good page,Tread thou in them boldly:Thou shalt � nd the winter’s rageFreeze thy blood less coldly.

In his master’s step he trod,Where the snow lay dented.Heat was in the very sodWhich the saint had printed.Therefore, Christian men, be sure,Wealth or rank possessing,Ye who now will bless the poorShall yourselves � nd blessing.
