Come and adore him, Jesus our Savior,.

When you pine for the sunshine. I met a man who lives in Tennessee. And some home made pumpkin pie. From Atlantic to Pacific, gee. The traffic is terrific. Oh there's no place like home. To be happy in a million ways. Willie, take your little drum,. Robin, bring your fife, and come,. And be merry while you play. Come be merry while you play,. On this joyous Christmas day. Toi, pran tu fleute, Robin. God and man became today,. More in tune than fife and drum,.
So be merry while you play. When all the birds had fled,. That mighty Gitchi Manitou. Sent angel choirs instead;. Before their light the stars grew dim,. And wandering hunter heard the hymn:. In excelsis gloria. Within a lodge of broken bark. The tender Babe was found,. A ragged robe of rabbit skin. Enwrapp'd His beauty round;. But as the hunter braves drew nigh,. The angel song rang loud and high O children of the forest free,.
The Holy Child of earth and heaven. Come kneel before the radiant Boy. Who brings you beauty, peace and joy. When Christ was born of Mary free,. In Bethlehem in that fair city,. Angels sung e'er with mirth and glee,. Herdsmen beheld these angels bright-. To them appeared with great light,.
And said, "God's son is born this night. This King is come to save His kind,. In the Scripture as we find;. Therefore this song we have in mind: Refrain. Then, dear Lord, for Thy great grace,. Grant us the bliss to see Thy face,. Where we may sing to Thy solace: Refrain. On this joyful Christmas Day. For a blessed Babe was born. Upon this day at the break of morn.
In a manger poor and lowly. Lay the Son of God most holy. Thanks to God for holidays. Now we all our voices raise. And sing a song of grateful praise. Celebrate in song and story. All the wonders of His glory. The Greatest Gift of All. Dawn is slowly breaking. Our friends have all gone home. For Santa Claus to come. There's a present by the tree. Knowing you're in love with me. Is the greatest gift of all. The fire is slowly fading.
All the gifts are waiting. For children ev'rywhere. Through the window I can see. Just before I go to sleep. I hear a church bell ring. Merry Christmas ev'ryone. So I say a silent prayer. For creatures great and small. Peace on earth goodwill to men. William Chatterdon Dixs. What child is this, who, lay to rest,. This, this is Christ the King. Haste, Haste, to bring him laud,. Good Christian, fear; for sinners.
So bring Him incense, gold, and myrrh come,. The King of kings salvation brings,. Alas, my love, you do me wrong,. To cast me off discourteously. For I have loved you well and long,. Delighting in your company. Greensleeves was all my joy. Greensleeves was my delight,.
Greensleeves was my heart of gold,. And who but my lady greensleeves. Your vows you've broken, like my heart,. Oh, why did you so enrapture me? Now I remain in a world apart. But my heart remains in captivity. I have been ready at your hand,. To grant whatever you would crave,. I have both wagered life and land,. Your love and good-will for to have. If you intend thus to disdain,. It does the more enrapture me,. And even so, I still remain.
My men were clothed all in green,. And they did ever wait on thee;. All this was gallant to be seen,. And yet thou wouldst not love me. Thou couldst desire no earthly thing,. Thy music still to play and sing;. Well, I will pray to God on high,.
And that yet once before I die,. Thou wilt vouchsafe to love me. Ah, Greensleeves, now farewell, adieu,. To God I pray to prosper thee,. For I am still thy lover true,.
Come once again and love me. The kingdom of this world is become. King of Kings, and Lord of Lords,. Do They Know It's Christmas? Band Aid Christmas Song. It's Christmastime; there's no need to be afraid. At Christmastime, we let in light and we banish shade. And in our world of plenty we can spread a smile of joy. Throw your arms around the world at Christmastime.
But say a prayer to pray for the other ones. It's hard, but when you're having fun. There's a world outside your window. And it's a world of dread and fear. Where the only water flowing is the bitter sting of tears. And the Christmas bells that ring there.
Are the clanging chimes of doom. Well tonight thank God it's them instead of you. And there won't be snow in Africa this Christmastime. The greatest gift they'll get this year is life. Oh, where nothing ever grows, no rain or rivers flow. Do they know it's Christmastime at all?
Here's to you, raise a glass for ev'ryone. Here's to them, underneath that burning sun. Let them know it's Christmastime again. The Night Before Christmas.
Clement Clarke Moore - adapted by Johnny Marks. Twas the night before Christmas and all through the house. Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse. All the stockings were hung by the chimney with care. In the hope that Saint Nicholas soon would be there. Then, what to my wondering eyes should appear,. A miniature sleigh and eight tiny reindeer,. A little old driver so lively and quick,.
I knew in a moment it must be Saint Nick. And more rapid than eagles his reindeer all came. As he shouted, "Oh Dasher" and each reindeer's name. And so up to the housetop the reindeer soon flew. With the sleigh full of toys and Saint Nicholas, too. Down the chimney he came with a leap and a bound;. He was dressed all in fur, and his belly was round. He spoke not a word but went straight to this work,. And filled all the stockings, then turned with a jerk,.
And laying his finger aside of his nose,. Then giving a nod up the chimney he rose. But I heard him exclaim as he drove out of sight,. Sid Tepper and Roy C. Here comes Suzy Snowflake,. Dressed in a snow-white gown,.
Tap, tap, tappin' at your windowpane. To tell you she's in town. Here comes Suzy Snowflake;. Soon you will hear her say,. I haven't long to stay. If you want to make a snowman,. I'll help you make one, two, three. If you wanna take a sleigh ride,. The ride's on me. Look at her tumblin' down,.
Bringing joy to ev'ry girl and boy;. Suzy's come to town. I Want a Hippopotamus For Christmas. It's included on a. Only a hippopotamus will do. I don't want a doll, no dinkey tinker toys. I want a hippopotamus to play with and enjoy. I want a hippopotamus for Christmas. I don't think Santa Claus will mind, do you? He won't have to use a dirty chimney flue.
Just bring him through the front door. That's the easy thing to do. I can see me now on Christmas morning. Creeping down the stairs. Oh what joy, what surprise.
When I open up my eyes. To see a hippo hero standing there. No crocodiles, no rhinosaurus. I only likes hippopotamuses [sic]. And hippopotamuses [sic] like me, too. Mom says a hippo would eat me up, but then. Teacher says a hippo is a vegetarian. There's lots of room for him in our two-car garage. I'd feed him there and wash him there and give him his massage. O Come, O Come, Emmanuel. O come, O come, Emmanuel,. And ransom captive Israel,. That mourns in lonely exile here.
Until the Son of God appear. Rejoice, rejoice! Shall come to thee, O Israel. O come, O come, Thou Lord of Might,. Who to Thy tribes, on Sinai's height,. In ancient times didst give the law,. In cloud, and majesty, and awe. O come, Thou Rod of Jesse, free. Thine own from Satan's tyranny;. From depths of hell Thy people save. And give them victory o'er the grave.
O come, Thou Dayspring, come and cheer. Our spirits by Thine advent here;. Disperse the gloomy clouds of night,. And death's dark shadows put to flight. 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 misery. O come, Thou Wisdom from on high,. And order all things, far and nigh;. To us the path of knowledge show,. And cause us in her ways to go. O come, Desire of nations, bind. In one the hearts of all mankind;.
Bid Thou our sad divisions cease,. And be Thyself our King of peace. I heard the bells on Christmas Day. Their old familiar carols play. And wild and sweet the words repeat.
