We Three Kings We three kings of Orient are Bearing gifts we traverse afar. Field and fountain, moor and mountain, Following yonder star. O star of wonder, star of night, Star of 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 again, King forever, ceasing never Over us all to reign. O star of wonder, star of night, Star of royal beauty bright, Westward leading, still proceeding, Guide us to thy perfect light. Frankincense to offer have I. Incense owns a Deity nigh. Prayer and praising all men raising, Worship Him, God on high. O star of wonder, star of night, Star of royal beauty bright,
Westward leading, still proceeding, Guide us to thy perfect light. Myrrh is mine: Its bitter perfume Breaths a life of gathering gloom. Sorrow, sighing, bleeding, dying, Sealed in a stone-cold tomb. O star of wonder, star of night, Star of royal beauty bright, Westward leading, still proceeding, Guide us to thy perfect light. Glorious now behold Him arise, King and God and Sacrifice. Alleluia, alleluia! Earth to heav’n replies. O star of wonder, star of night, Star of royal beauty bright, Westward leading, still proceeding, Following yonder star. O star of wonder, star of night, Star of royal beauty bright, Westward leading,still proceeding, Following yonder star!

Jingle Bells Dashing through the snow in a one-horse open sleigh. O’er the fields we go laughing all the way. Bells on bobtail ring, making spirits bright; What fun it is to ride and sing A sleighing song tonight (Chorus:) Jingle bells, jingle bells, Jingle all the way, Oh what fun it is to ride In a one-horse open sleigh. A day or two ago, I thought I’d take a ride, And soon Miss Fannie Bright Was seated by my side; The horse was lean and lank, Misfortune seemed his lot, He go into a drifted bank
And then we got upsot! (Chorus:) Jingle bells, jingle bells, Jingle all the way, Oh what fun it is to ride In a one-horse open sleigh. Now the ground is white, Go do it while you’re young, Take the girls tonight, And sing the sleighing song, Just get a bobtail’d bay, Two forty as his speed, Then hitch him to an open sleigh And crack! You’ll take the lead. (Chorus:) Jingle bells, jingle bells, Jingle all the way, Oh what fun it is to ride In a one-horse open sleigh.

O Come All Ye Faithful 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. O Sing, choirs of angels, Sing in exultation, Sing all that hear in heaven God’s holy word. Give to our Father glory in the Highest; O come, let us adore Him, O come, let us adore Him,
O come, let us adore Him, Christ the Lord. All Hail! Lord, we greet Thee, Born this happy morning, O Jesus! for evermore be Thy name adored. Word of the Father, now in flesh appearing; O come, let us adore Him, O come, let us adore Him, O come, let us adore Him, Christ the Lord.
The Christmas Song 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.
Merry Christmas
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.

Grandma Got Run Over By A Reindeer CHORUS Grandma got run over by a reindeer Walking home from our house Christmas Eve. You can say there’s no such thing as Santa, But as for me an’ Grandpa, we believe. She’d been drinking too much eggnog, And we begged her not to go. But she forgot her medication, And she staggered out the door into the snow. When we found her Christmas morning, At the scene of the attack She had hoof prints on her forehead, And incriminating Claus marks on her back. CHORUS Now we’re all so proud of Grandpa, He’s been taking this so well. See him in there watching football,
Drinking beer and playing cards with cousin Mel. It’s not Christmas without Grandma, All the family’s dressed in black. And we just can’t help but wonder Should we open up her gifts or send them back? (SEND THEM BACK!!! ) CHORUS Now the goose is on the table And the pudding made of fig (ahhhhh!) And the blue and silver candles, That would just have matched the hair in Grandma’s wig. I’ve warned all my friends and neighbours, Better watch out for yourselves. They should never give a license, To a man who drives a sleigh and plays with elves. (Sing it, Grandpa!)

New Owner
Rudolph The Red Nosed Reindeer You know Dasher, and Dancer, and Prancer, and Vixen, Comet, and Cupid, and Donder and Blitzen But do you recall The most famous reindeer of all Rudolph, the red-nosed reindeer had a very shiny nose and if you ever saw it you would even say it glows.
They never let poor Rudolph play 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!
All of the other reindeer used to laugh and call him names

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 fairy tale 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 Thumpity thump thump thumpity thump thump Look at Frosty go Thumpity thump thump thumpity thump thump Over the hills of snow
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 the streets of town right to the traffic cop And he only paused a moment when he heard him holler “Stop!” For Frosty the snow man had to hurry on his way But he waved goodbye saying Don’t you cry I’ll be back again some day thumpity thump thump thumpity thump thump Look at Frosty go thumpity thump thump thumpity thump thump Over the hills of snow
During this season of giving let us take time to slow down and enjoy the simple things. May this wonderful time of year touch your heart in a special way. Wishing you much happiness throughout the holidays!
