Do You Hear What I Hear

Gloria Shayne - Noel Regney

© Regent Music, BMI

Said the night wind 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 warm 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
The Child the Child sleeping in the night
He will bring us goodness and light
He will bring us goodness and light

Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas

Hugh Martin - Ralph Blane

© Leo Feist Music, ASCAP

Have yourself a merry little Christmas
Let your heart be light
From now on our troubles will be out of sight
Have yourself a merry little Christmas
Make the Yule-tide gay
From now on our troubles will be miles away

Here we are as in olden days
Happy golden days of yore
Faithful friends who are dear to us
Gather near to us once more

Through the years we all will be together
If the Fates allow
Hang a shining star upon the highest bough
And have yourself a merry little Christmas now

Let It Snow Let It Snow Let It Snow

Sammy Cahn - Jule Styne

© Cahn Music, ASCAP

Oh the weather outside is frightful
But the fire 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 finally say good night
How I'll hate going out in the storm
But if you really hold me tight
All the way home I'll be warm

The fire is slowly dying
And my dear we're still goodbyeing
But as long as you love me so
Let it snow let it snow let it snow

O Come All Ye Faithful (Adeste Fideles)

Frederick Oakeley - John Wade

© Hope Pub, ASCAP

O come all ye faithful joyful and triumphant
O come ye O come ye to Bethlehem
Come and behold him born the King of angels

O come let us adore him O come let us adore him
O Come let us adore him Christ the Lord

Sing choirs of angels sing in exultation
Sing all ye citizens of heaven above
Glory to God all glory in the highest

O come let us adore him...

See how the shepherds summoned to his cradle
Leaving their flocks draw nigh to gaze
We too will thither bend our joyful footsteps

O come let us adore him...

Yea Lord we greet thee born this happy morning
Jesus to thee be glory given word of the Father
Now in flesh appearing

O come let us adore him...

The Christmas Song

Mel Torme - Robert Wells

© E.H. Morris Co, ASCAP

Chestnuts roasting on an open fire
Jack Frost nipping at your nose
Yule-tide carols being sung 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 find it hard to sleep tonight

They know that Santa's on his way
He's loaded lots of toys and 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

O Holy Night

Adolphe Adam

© Shawnee Press, ASCAP

Oh holy night the stars are brightly shining
It is the night of the dear Savior's birth
Long lay the world in sin and error pining
Till he appear'd and the soul felt its worth
A thrill of hope the weary world rejoices
For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn

Fall on your knees oh hear the angel voices
Oh night divine oh night when Christ was born
Oh night divine oh night divine

Led by the light of Faith serenely beaming
With glowing hearts by His cradle we stand
So led by light of a star sweetly gleaming
Here come the wise men from Orient land
The King of Kings lay thus in lowly manger
In all our trials born to be our friend

Truly He taught us to love one another
His law is love and His gospel is peace
Chains shall He break for the slave is our brother
And in His name all oppression shall cease
Sweet hymns of joy in grateful chorus raise we
Let all within us praise His holy name

Silver Bells

Ray Evans - Jay Livingston

© Famous Music, ASCAP

Christmas makes you feel emotional
It may bring parties or thoughts devotional
Whatever happens or what may be
Here is what Christmas time means to me

City sidewalk 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'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 home with 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

Away In A Manger

William Kirkpatrick - Martin Luther

© Robbins Music, ASCAP

Away in a manger no crib for His bed
The little Lord Jesus lay down his sweet head
The stars in the sky looked down where He lay
The little Lord Jesus asleep on the hay

The cattle are lowing the poor Baby wakes
But little Lord Jesus no crying He makes
I love Thee Lord Jesus look down from the sky
And stay by my cradle till morning is nigh

Be near me Lord Jesus I ask Thee to stay
Close by me forever and love me I pray
Bless all the dear children in Thy tender care
And take us to heaven to Live with Thee there

White Christmas

Irving Berlin

© Irving Berlin Music, ASCAP

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

What Child Is This

William Dix

© Acuff-Rose Music, BMI

What child is this who laid to rest
On Mary's lap is sleeping
Whom angels greet with anthems sweet
While shepherds watch are keeping

This this is Christ the King
Whom shepherds guard and angels sing
Haste haste to bring him laud
The Babe the Son of Mary

So bring Him incense gold and myrrh
Come peasant king to own Him
The King of kings salvation brings
Let loving hearts enthrone Him

Raise raise the song on high
The Virgin sings her lullaby
Joy joy for Christ is born
The Babe the Son of Mary

I'll Be Home For Christmas

Kim Gannon - Walter Kent - Buck Ram

© Gannon And Kent Music, ASCAP

I'll be home for Christmas
You can plan on one
Please have snow and mistletoe
And presents on the tree
Christmas Eve will find me
Where the love light gleams
I'll be home for Christmas
If only in my dreams

Silent Night

Franz Gruber - Joseph Mohr

© Educational Graphics Press, BMI

Silent night holy night
All is calm all is bright
Round yon Virgin Mother and Child
Holy infant so tender and mild
Sleep in heavenly peace
Sleep in heavenly peace

Silent night holy night
Shepherds quake at the sight
Glories stream from heaven afar
Heavenly hosts sing Alleluia
Christ the Savior is born
Christ the Savior is born

Silent night holy night
Son of God love's pure light
Radiant beams from Thy holy face
With dawn of redeeming grace
Jesus Lord at Thy birth
Jesus Lord at Thy birth
