Look now, for glad and golden hoursCome swiftly on the wing;

Oh rest beside the weary roadAnd hear the angels sing.

When with the ever-circling yearsShall come the time foretold,

When the new heaven and earth shall ownThe Prince of Peace, their King,

And the whole world send back the songWhich now the angels sing.

~ Good King Wenceslas ~Good King Wenceslas looked out

On the feast of StephenWhen the snow lay round about

Deep and crisp and evenBrightly shone the moon that night

Though the frost was cruelWhen a poor man came in sight

Gath'ring winter fuel

"Hither, page, and stand by meIf thou know'st it, telling

Yonder peasant, who is he?Where and what his dwelling?"

"Sire, he lives a good league henceUnderneath the mountain

Right against the forest fenceBy Saint Agnes' fountain."

"Bring me �esh and bring me wineBring me pine logs hither

Thou and I will see him dineWhen we bear him thither."

Page and monarch forth they wentForth they went together

Through the rude wind's wild lamentAnd the bitter weather

~ Silver Bells ~City sidewalks busy sidewalks; dressed in holiday style

Meeting smile after smile and on every street corner you'll hear

Silver bells, silver bells, it's Christmas time in the cityRing a ling, hear them ring, soon it will be Christmas day

Deck the halls with boughs of holly, Fa la la la la, la la la la. Tis the season to be jolly, Fa la la la la, la la la la.

Don we now our gay apparel, Fa la la, la la la, la la la. Troll the ancient Yule tide carol, Fa la la la la, la la la la.

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.

~ Rudolph, the red-nosed reindeer ~Rudolph, the red-nosed reindeer

had a very shiny nose. And if you ever saw him,

you would even say it glows.

All of the other reindeer used to laugh and call him names.

They never let poor Rudolph join in any reindeer games.

Then one foggy Christmas Eve Santa came to say:

"Rudolph with your nose so bright, won't you guide my sleigh tonight?"

Then all the reindeer loved him as they shouted out with glee,

Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer, you'll go down in history!

~ Walking in a winter wonderland ~Sleigh bells ring, are you listening,

In the lane, snow is glisteningA 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 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 clown

We'll have lots of fun with mister snowman,Until the other kids 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.

~ I'm dreaming of a white Christmas ~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

Seven swans a-swimming, Six geese a-laying, Five golden rings, Four calling birds,

Three French hens, Two turtle doves,

And a partridge in a pear tree.

On the tenth day of Christmas, my true love sent to me

Ten lords a-leaping, Nine ladies dancing,

Eight maids a-milking, Seven swans a-swimming,

Six geese a-laying, Five golden rings, Four calling birds,

Three French hens, Two turtle doves,

And a partridge in a pear tree.

On the eleventh day of Christmas, my true love sent to me

Eleven pipers piping, Ten lords a-leaping, Nine ladies dancing,

Eight maids a-milking, Seven swans a-swimming,

Six geese a-laying, Five golden rings, Four calling birds,

Three French hens, Two turtle doves,

And a partridge in a pear tree.

On the twelfth day of Christmas, my true love sent to me

Twelve drummers drumming, Eleven pipers piping, Ten lords a-leaping, Nine ladies dancing,

Eight maids a-milking, Seven swans a-swimming,

Six geese a-laying, Five golden rings, Four calling birds,

Three French hens, Two turtle doves,

And a partridge in a pear tree!

~ Good King Wenceslas ~Good King Wenceslas looked out

On the feast of StephenWhen the snow lay round about

Deep and crisp and evenBrightly shone the moon that night

Though the frost was cruelWhen a poor man came in sight

Gath'ring winter fuel

"Hither, page, and stand by meIf thou know'st it, telling

Yonder peasant, who is he?Where and what his dwelling?"

"Sire, he lives a good league henceUnderneath the mountain

Right against the forest fenceBy Saint Agnes' fountain."

"Bring me �esh and bring me wineBring me pine logs hither

Thou and I will see him dineWhen we bear him thither."

Page and monarch forth they wentForth they went together

Through the rude wind's wild lamentAnd the bitter weather

~ Walking in a winter wonderland ~Sleigh bells ring, are you listening,

In the lane, snow is glisteningA 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 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 clown

We'll have lots of fun with mister snowman,Until the other kids 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.
