ROCKIN’ AROUND THE CHRISTMAS TREE

Rockin' around the Christmas tree 

at the Christmas party hop

Mistletoe hung where you can see, 

every couple tries to stop

Rockin' around the Christmas tree, 

let the Christmas spirit ring

Later, we'll have some pumpkin pie 

and we'll do some caroling

You will get a sentimental feelin' when you hear

Voices singin', "Let's be jolly

Deck the halls with boughs of holly"

Rockin' around the Christmas tree, 

have a happy holiday

Everyone dancin' merrily 

in the new old-fashioned way

You will get a sentimental feelin' when you hear

Voices singin', "Let's be jolly

Deck the halls with boughs of holly"

Rockin' around the Christmas tree, 

have a happy holiday

Everyone dancin' merrily 

in the new, old, fashioned, way

I’LL BE HOME FOR CHRISTMAS

I'll be home for Christmas

You can plan on me

Please have snow and mistletoe

And presents on the tree

Christmas Eve will find me

Where the lovelight gleams

I'll be home for Christmas

If only in my dreams

If only in my dreams

THE MOST WONDERFUL TIME OF THE YEAR

It's the most wonderful time of the year

With the kids jingle belling

And everyone telling you be of good cheer

It's the most wonderful time of the year

It's the hap-happiest season of all

With those holiday greetings 

and gay happy meetings

When friends come to call

It's the hap-happiest season of all

There'll be parties for hosting

Marshmallows for toasting

And caroling out in the snow

There'll be scary ghost stories

And tales of the glories of

Christmases long, long ago

It's the most wonderful time of the year

There'll be much mistltoeing

And hearts will be glowing

When loved ones are near

It's the most wonderful time

Yes the most wonderful time

Oh the most wonderful time

Of the year

RUDOLPH THE RED NOSED REINDEER

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?

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 light bulb)

All of the other reindeer (reindeer)

Used to laugh and call him names (like Pinocchio)

They never let poor Rudolph (Rudolph)

Join in any reindeer games (like Monopoly)

Then one foggy Christmas Eve 

Santa came to say (Ho Ho Ho)

"Rudolph with your nose so bright

Won't you guide my sleigh tonight?"

Then all the reindeer loved him (loved him)

As they shouted out with glee (With Glee)

"Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer(reindeer)

You'll go down in history!"

You'll go down in history.

FROSTY THE SNOWMAN

Frosty the Snowman

Was a jolly, happy soul

With a corncob pipe, and a button nose

And two eyes made out of coal

Frosty the Snowman is a fairytale they say

He was made of snow

But the children know

How he came to life one day

There must have been some magic

In that old silk hat they found

For when they placed it on his head

He began to dance around

Oh, Frosty the Snowman

Was alive as he could be

And the children say

He could laugh and play just the same as you and me

Thumpety, thump-thump, thumpety, thump-thump

Look at Frosty go (hey, look at him)

Thumpety, thump-thump, thumpety, thump-thump

Over the hills of snow

HERE COMES SANTA CLAUS

Here comes Santa Claus, here comes Santa Claus

Right down Santa Claus Lane

Vixen and Blitzen and all his reindeers 

pulling on the reins

Bells are ringing, children singing, all is merry and bright

So hang your stockings and say your prayers

'Cause Santa Claus comes tonight

Here comes Santa Claus, here comes Santa Claus

Right down Santa Claus Lane

He's got a bag that's filled with toys

for all the kids again

Hear those sleigh bells jingle jangle, 

oh, what a beautiful sight

So jump in bed and cover your head

'Cause Santa Claus comes tonight

THE CHRISTMAS SONG

Chestnuts roasting on an open fire

Jack Frost nipping at your nose

Yuletide carols being sung by a choir and folks dressed up in fancy clothes

Everybody knows a turkey and some mistletoe

Will 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 going to 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, 

Merry Christmas,

Merry Christmas, to you

DO YOU HEAR WHAT I HEAR

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 skies, 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

A child, a child, sleeping in the night

He will bring us goodness and light

He will bring us goodness and light

JOY TO THE WORLD

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.

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, of His love.

OH HOLY NIGHT

Oh Holy night, the stars are brightly shining

It is the night of our dear saviour’s birth

Long lay the world in sin and error pining

Til he appeared and the soul felt it’s 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, Oh night divine

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.
