HOLIDAY TYMES 2017 - 5

A Visit from St. Nicholas ‘Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse; The stockings were hung by the chimney with care, In hopes that St. Nicholas soon would be there; The children were nestled all snug in their beds, While visions of sugar-plums danced in their heads; And mamma in her ‘kerchief, and I in my cap, Had just settled down for a long winter’s nap, When out on the lawn there arose such a clatter, I sprang from the bed to see what was the matter.

Away to the window I flew like a flash, Tore open the shutters and threw up the sash.

The moon on the breast of the new-fallen snow Gave the luster of mid-day to objects below, When, what to my wondering eyes should appear, But a miniature sleigh, and eight tiny reindeer, With a little old driver, so lively and quick, I knew in a moment it must be St. Nick.

More rapid than eagles his coursers they came, And he whistled, and shouted, and called them by name; Now, Dasher! Now, Dancer!

Now, Prancer and Vixen!

On, Comet! On Cupid! On, Donner and Blitzen!

To the top of the porch! To the top of the wall!

Now dash away! Dash away! Dash away all!

As dry leaves that before the wild hurricane fly, When they meet with an obstacle, mount to the sky, So up to the house-top the coursers they flew, With the sleigh full of toys, and St. Nicholas too.

And then, in a twinkling, I heard on the roof The prancing and pawing of each little hoof.

As I drew in my hand, and was turning around, Down the chimney St. Nicholas came with a bound.

He was dressed all in fur, from his head to his foot, And his clothes were all tarnished with ashes and soot; A bundle of toys he had flung on his back, And he looked like a peddler just opening his pack.

His eyes – how they twinkled!

His dimples how merry!

His cheeks were like roses, his nose like a cherry!

His droll little mouth was drawn up like a bow, And the beard of his chin was as white as the snow; The stump of a pipe he held tight in his teeth, And the smoke it encircled his head

like a wreath; He had a broad face and a little round belly, That shook, when he laughed like a bowlful of jelly.

He was chubby and plump, a right jolly old elf, And I laughed when I saw him, in spite of myself; A wink of his eye and a twist of his head, Soon gave me to know I had nothing to dread; He spoke not a word, but went straight to his work, And filled all the stockings; then turned with a jerk, And laying his finger aside of his nose, And giving a nod, up the chimney he rose; He sprang to his sleigh, to his team gave a whistle, And away they all flew like the down of a thistle.

But I heard him exclaim, ere he drove out of sight, “Happy Christmas to all, and to all a good-night!”

Honey Bacon Cinnamon Rolls with Cream Cheese Icing Makes: 12 rolls Prep time: 35 minutes Cook time: 25 minutes Cool time: 10 minutes Ready in: 1 hour Difficulty Level: Easy

Honey-flavoured bacon is tucked between each layer of these sticky cinnamon buns; you’ll also taste it in the cream cheese icing, as we’ve swapped out some of the butter in the icing for bacon fat. Bonus: The dough doesn’t need to rise, so you can whip these up in just an hour.

Ingredients: Rolls: • 1/2 cup (125 mL) PC Unsalted Country Churned Butter 6038365827 • 10 slices PC Honey & Sea Salt Flavour Naturally Smoked Bacon 60383190323 NEW • 1/2 cup (125 mL) packed brown sugar • 1 tsp (5 mL) cinnamon

• 2-1/2 cups (625 mL) all-purpose flour • 2 tbsp (25 mL) granulated sugar • 1-1/2 tsp (7 mL) baking powder • 1/2 tsp (2 mL) each baking soda and salt • 1-1/4 cups (300 mL) buttermilk Icing: • Half pkg (250 g pkg) cream cheese, softened • 1 cup (250 mL) icing sugar • 2 tbsp (25 mL) PC Unsalted Country Churned Butter, softened 6038365827 • 1/2 tsp (2 mL) PC Pure Vanilla Extract 6038300836

1. Prepare Rolls: Freeze 1/3 cup butter until firm.

2. Meanwhile, place bacon in cold large skillet. Cook over medium heat, turning often, until golden and crispy, 5 to 6 minutes. Transfer bacon with tongs to paper towel-lined cutting board to drain; discard paper towel. Transfer 2 slices to small plate; set aside. Finely chop remaining bacon. Stir together chopped

bacon, brown sugar and cinnamon in large bowl; set aside. Transfer 2 tbsp bacon fat to small bowl; refrigerate until needed.

3. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Whisk together flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt in separate large bowl. Grate frozen butter on large holes of box grater into flour mixture. Gently lift and toss mixture with fingers to coat butter. Make well in centre; pour in buttermilk. Stir with fork just until ragged dough forms.

4. Turn out dough onto well-floured work surface. Knead gently until smooth but still slightly sticky, sprinkling with flour if necessary. Roll out dough to 15x 12-inch (38 x 30 cm) rectangle.

5. Melt remaining butter; let cool slightly. Brush surface of dough with 2 tbsp

BAXTROM’S CHRISTMAS RECIPE GUIDE

Ham and Cheddar Buttermilk Drop Biscuits

Milk-Braised Pork Shoulder Makes: 8 servings Prep time: 20 minutes Cook time: 1 hour, 10 minutes Ready in: 1 hour, 30 minutes Difficulty Level: Easy

Makes: 16 biscuits Prep time: 15 minutes Cook time: 16 minutes Ready in: 35 minutes Difficulty Level: Easy

These sharp Cheddar biscuits are equally at home alongside a plate of turkey, gravy and vegetables as they are on their own with a generous pat of butter and a cup of tea. They puff up as they bake, so be sure to leave plenty of room between each biscuit on the baking sheet.

Braising pork in milk might seem unconventional, but the result is a perfectly tender, fall-apart roast and intensely flavourful sauce to serve with it. It’s normal for the milk to curdle in the oven – a quick buzz in the blender transforms it into a thick, velvety sauce. The pork will likely come tied from the butcher, but if not, use some kitchen twine to tie it firmly – this helps it cook evenly.

Ingredients: • 2-1/2 cups (625 mL) all-purpose flour • 1 tbsp (15 mL) baking powder • 1 tsp (5 mL) granulated sugar • 1/2 tsp (2 mL) each baking soda and salt • 1/4 tsp (1 mL) cayenne pepper • 3/4 cup (175 mL) frozen PC Unsalted Country Churned Butter 6038365827 • 4 slices PC Free From Smoked Black Forest Ham, finely chopped 6038305374 • 3 green onions, thinly sliced • 1 cup (250 mL) shredded PC Aged 5 Years Canadian Cheddar Cheese NEW • 1 large egg • 1 cup (250 mL) buttermilk

Local Charities Need our Support This holiday season our local charities will need some extra help to provide for all the families in the area that are in need.

Whether it’s a few extra dollars dropped into one of the kettles, an extra toy to Sparky, a box of food or a turkey or two to Agape or St. Vincent de Paul Society, all of them could use your help. Cornwall and area business continue to support with individual food drives and these are all excellent ways to contribute.

The Service Club Council and their Christmas baskets can always use the little extra they receive...plus all our churches and local agencies that keep our community warm.

Please give that extra this year and make more people smile this holiday season.

As another holiday season approaches, on behalf of myself and the staff at TC Media/ Seaway News I would like to wish you and your family a safe and joyous season.

Une nouvelle saison des Fêtes approche à grands pas. En mon nom, et en celui de toute l’équipe du TC Media, je tiens à vous souhaiter, ainsi qu’à votre famille, de sereines et joyeuses fêtes.

The First Noel

Jolly Old Saint Nicholas Jolly old Saint Nicholas, Lean your ear this way!

Don’t you tell a single soul What I’m going to say; Christmas Eve is coming soon, Now, you dear old man, Whisper what you’ll bring to me, Tell me if you can.

They looked up and saw a star Shining in the East, beyond them far; And to the earth it gave great light, And so it continued both day and night.

Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel, Born is the King of Israel.

Born is the King of Israel.

This star drew nigh to the northwest, O’er Bethlehem it took its rest; And there it did both stop and stay, Right over the place where Jesus lay.

Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel, Born is the King of Israel.

And by the light of that same star, Three wise men came from country far; To seek for a King was their intent, And to follow the star wherever it went.

Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel,

Then entered in those wise men three, Full reverently upon their knee; And offered there in His presence, Their gold, and myrrh, and frankincense.

Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel, Born is the King of Israel.

When the clock is striking twelve, When I’m fast asleep, Down the chimney broad and black, With your pack you’ll creep; All the stockings you will find Hanging in a row;

Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas 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.

Wishing you a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

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.

It Came Upon The Midnight Clear

O’er all the weary world; Above its sad and lowly plains They bend on hovering wing.

And ever o’er its Babel sounds The blessed angels sing.

Yet with the woes of sin and strife

For lo! the days are hastening on, By prophet bards foretold, When, with the ever-circling years, Shall come the Age of Gold; When peace shall over all the earth Its ancient splendors fling, And all the world give back the song Which now the angels sing.

I’ll be home for Christmas; You can count on me.

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.

It’s Beginning To Look A Lot Like Christmas It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas Ev’rywhere you go; Take a look in the five and ten glistening once again With candy canes and silver lanes aglow.

It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas Ev’rywhere you go; There’s a tree in the Grand Hotel, one in the park as well, The sturdy kind that doesn’t mind the snow.

It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas Toys in ev’ry store But the prettiest sight to see is the holly that will be On your own front door.

It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas; Soon the bells will start, And the thing that will make them ring is the carol that you sing Right within your heart.

A pair of hopalong boots and a pistol that shoots Is the wish of Barney and Ben; Dolls that will talk and will go for a walk Is the hope of Janice and Jen; And Mom and Dad can hardly wait for school to start again.

7402465

Still through the cloven skies they come With peaceful wings unfurled And still their heavenly music floats

The world hath suffered long; Beneath the angelstrain have rolled Two thousand years of wrong; And man, at war with man, hears not The love song which they bring: O hush the noise, ye men of strife, And hear the angels sing.

7394115

It came upon the midnight clear, That glorious song of old, From angels bending near the earth To touch their harps of gold!

Peace on the earth, good will to men, From heaven’s all gracious King!

The world in solemn stillness lay To hear the angels sing.

Rudolph The Red-Nosed Reindeer

Sleigh Ride

There was Dasher and Dancer and Prancer and Vixen, Comet and Cupid and Donner and Blitzen But do you recall, The most famous Reindeer of all...

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 how the reindeer loved him, As they shouted out with glee: “Rudolph, the Red-Nosed Reindeer, You’ll go down in history.”

While shepards kept their watching o’er silent flocks by night, behond, throughout the heavens There shone a holy light.

Go, tell it on the mountain, over the hills and everywhere.

Go, tell it on the mountain that Jesus Christ is born.

The shepards feared and trembled when lo, above the earth

There’s a happy feeling Nothing in the world can buy, When they pass around the coffee And the pumpkin pie, It’ll nearly be like a picture print

By Currier and Ives, These wonderful things are the things We remember all through our lives!

Giddy up, giddy up, giddy up, Let’s go, let’s look at the show, We’re riding in a wonderland of snow.

Giddy yap, giddy yap, giddy yap, It’s grand, just holding your hand, We’re riding along with a song Of a wintry fairy land.

Just hear those sleigh bells jingling, Ring-ting-tingling too, Come on, it’s lovely weather For a sleigh ride together with you, Outside the snow is falling And friends are calling, “Yoo hoo”, Come on, it’s lovely weather For a sleigh ride together with you.

Our cheeks are nice and rosy, And comfy cozy are we, We’re snuggled up together Like two birds of a feather would be, Let’s take that road before us, And sing a chorus or two, Come on, it’s lovely weather For a sleigh ride together with you.

Go, Tell It on the Mountain Go, tell it on the mountain, over the hills and everywhere.

Go, tell it on the mountain that Jesus Christ is born.

Just hear those sleigh bells jingling, Ring-ting-tingling too, Come on, it’s lovely weather For a sleigh ride together with you, Outside the snow is falling And friends are calling, “Yoo hoo”, Come on, it’s lovely weather For a sleigh ride together with you.

rang out the angel chorus that hailed our Saviour’s birth!

Go, tell it on the mountain, over the hills and everywhere.

Go, tell it on the mountain that Jesus Christ is born.

Down in a lonely manger the humble Christ was born, and God sent our salvation that blessed Christmas morn.

Go, tell it on the mountain, over the hills and everywhere.

Go, tell it on the mountain that Jesus Christ is born.

There’s a birthday party At the home of Farmer Gray, It’ll be the perfect ending of a perfect day, We’ll be singing the songs We love to sing without a single stop, At the fireplace while we watch The chestnuts pop; Pop! Pop! Pop!

Giddy up, giddy up, giddy up, Let’s go, let’s look at the show, We’re riding in a wonderland of snow.

Giddy up, giddy up, giddy up, It’s grand, just holding your hand, We’re riding along with a song Of a wintry fairy land.

Our cheeks are nice and rosy, And comfy cozy are we, We’re snuggled up together Like two birds of a feather would be, Let’s take that road before us And sing a chorus or two, Come on, it’s lovely weather For a sleigh ride together with you.

Give us 12 minutes... we’ll change your oil and your day!

Nuttin’ For Christmas I broke my bat on Johnny’s head; Somebody snitched on me.

I hid a frog in sister’s bed; Somebody snitched on me.

I spilled some ink on Mommy’s rug; I made Tommy eat a bug; Bought some gum with a penny slug; Somebody snitched on me.

Oh, I’m gettin’ nuttin’ for Christmas Mommy and Daddy are mad.

I’m getting nuttin’ for Christmas ‘Cause I ain’t been nuttin’ but bad.

I’m gettin’ nuttin’ for Christmas ‘Cause I ain’t been nuttin’ but bad.

I put a tack on teacher’s chair somebody snitched on me.

I tied a knot in Susie’s hair somebody snitched on me.

I did a dance on Mommy’s plants climbed a tree and tore my pants Filled the sugar bowl with ants somebody snitched on me.

I won’t be seeing Santa Claus; Somebody snitched on me.

He won’t come visit me because Somebody snitched on me.

Next year I’ll be going straight; Next year I’ll be good, just wait I’d start now, but it’s too late; Somebody snitched on me.

So, I’m gettin’ nuttin’ for Christmas Mommy and Daddy are mad.

So you better be good whatever you do

O Little Town Of Bethlehem O little town of Bethlehem, How still we see thee lie!

Above thy deep and dreamless sleep The silent stars go by; Yet in thy dark streets shineth The everlasting Light; The hopes and fears of all the years Are met in thee to-night.

For Christ is born of Mary, And gathered all above, While mortals sleep, the angels keep Their watch of wondering love.

O morning stars, together Proclaim the holy birth!

And praises sing to God the King,

‘Cause if you’re bad, I’m warning you, You’ll get nuttin’ for Christmas.

Joy To The World

And peace to men on earth.

How silently, how silently, The wondrous gift is given!

So God imparts to human hearts The blessings of His heaven.

No ear may hear His coming, But in this world of sin, Where meek souls will receive him, still The dear Christ enters in.

Where children pure and happy Pray to the blessed Child, Where misery cries out to Thee, Son of the mother mild; Where charity stands watching And faith holds wide the door, The dark night wakes, the glory breaks, And Christmas comes once more.

O holy Child of Bethlehem!

Descend to us, we pray; Cast out our sin and enter in, Be born in us to-day.

We hear the Christmas angels The great glad tidings tell; O come to us, abide with us, Our Lord Emmanuel!

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.

Joy to the earth! the Saviour reigns; Let men their songs employ; while fields and floods, rocks, hills and plains Repeat the sounding joy, Repeat the sounding joy, Repeat, repeat the sounding joy.

No more let sins and sorrows grow, nor thorns infest the ground; He comes to make His blessing flow far as the curse is found, far as the curse is found, far as, far as the curse is found.

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.

Silent Night 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 Saviour is born!

Christ the Saviour 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.

Mary’s Boy Child

Mary’s boy child Jesus Christ was born on Christmas Day. While shepherds watch their flocks by night, they see a bright new shining star, they hear a choir sing a song, the music seemed to come from afar.

Hark, now hear the angels sing, a king was born today, And man will live for evermore, because of Christmas Day.

Mary’s boy child Jesus Christ was born on Christmas Day. And man will live for evermore because of Christmas Day. Long time ago in Bethlehem so the Holy Bible says Mary’s boy child Jesus Christ was born on Christmas Day.

And then they found a little nook in a stable all forlorn, and in a manger cold and dark, Mary’s little boy was born.

Hark, now hear the angels sing, a king was born today, And man will live for evermore, because of Christmas Day. Mary’s boy child Jesus Christ, was born on Christmas Day.

Away in a manger, no crib for a bed, The little Lord Jesus laid down His sweet head.

The stars in the bright sky looked down where He lay, The little Lord Jesus asleep in the hay.

The cattle are lowing, the Baby awakes, But little Lord Jesus no crying He makes.

I love Thee, Lord Jesus, look down from the sky And stay by my cradle til 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.

It’s 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.

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 mistletoeing and hearts will be glowing, when loved ones are near.

It’s the most wonderful time of the year.

Jingle Bells Dashing through the snow In a one-horse open sleigh O’er the fields we go, Laughing all the way; Bells on bob tails 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!

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 Fanny Bright Was seated by my side; The horse was lean and lank Misfortune seemed his lot,

The Little Drummer Boy

We ran into a drifted bank And there we got upsot.

Come they told me Pa rum pum pum pum A new born King to see Pa rum pum pum pum

Chorus A day or two ago The story I must tell I went out on the snow And on my back I fell; A gent was riding by In a one-horse open sleigh He laughed at me as I there sprawling laid But quickly drove away.

Our finest gifts we bring Pa rum pum pum pum To lay before the KIng Pa rum pum pum pum, rum pum pum pum, rum pum pum pum So to honour Him Pa rum pum pum pum When we come

Chorus

Little baby Pa rum pum pum pum I am a poor boy too Pa rum pum pum pum I have no gift to bring Pa rum pum pum pum That’s fit to give our King Pa rum pum pum pum, rum pum pum pum, rum pum pum pum

Now the ground is white, Go it while you’re young, Take the girls along And sing this sleighing song.

Just bet a bob-tailed bay, Two-forty as his speed, Hitch him to an open sleigh And crack! You’ll take the lead!

Here Comes Santa Claus

Here comes Santa Claus!

Here comes Santa Claus!

Right down Santa Claus Lane!

Vixen and Blitzen and all his reindeer are pulling on the reins.

Bells are ringing, children singing; All is merry and bright.

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 is filled with toys for the boys and girls again.

Hear those sleigh bells jingle jangle, What a beautiful sight.

Jump in bed, cover up your head, ‘Cause Santa Claus comes tonight.

Shall I play for You Pa rum pum pum pum On my drum Mary nodded Pa rum pum pum pum The ox and lamb kept time Pa rum pum pum pum I played my drum for Him Pa rum pum pum pum I played my best for Him Pa rum pum pum pum, rum pum pum pum, rum pum pum pum Then He smiled at me Pa rum pum pum pum Me and my drum

Angels We Have Heard on High Angels we have heard on high, Singing sweetly through the night, And the mountains in reply Echoing their brave delight.

Gloria in excelsis Deo. Gloria in excelsis Deo.

Come to Bethlehem and see Him whose birth the angels sing; Come, adore on bended knee Christ, the Lord, the new-born King.

Shepherds, why this jubilee?

Why these songs of happy cheer?

What great brightness did you see?

What glad tiding did you hear?

See him in a manger laid Whom the angels praise above; Mary, Joseph, lend your aid, While we raise our hearts in love.

Good King Wenceslas

Hither, page, and stand by me.

If thou know it telling: Yonder peasant, who is he?

Where and what his dwelling?

Sire, he lives a good league hence, Underneath the mountain, Right against the forest fence

By Saint Agnes’ fountain.

Sire, the night is darker now, And the wind blows stronger.

Fails my heart, I know not how I can go no longer.

Mark my footsteps my good page, Tread thou in them boldly: Thou shalt find the winter’s rage Freeze thy blood less coldly.

In his master’s step he trod, Where the snow lay dinted.

Heat was in the very sod Which the saint had printed.

Therefore, Christian men, be sure, Wealth or rank possessing, Ye who now will bless the poor Shall yourselves find blessing.

Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!

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.

It doesn’t show signs of stopping And I’ve bought some corn for popping The lights are turned way down low Let It Snow! Let It Snow!

Let It Snow!

When we finally kiss goodnight How I’ll hate going out in the storm!

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.

The Christmas Song

They know that Santa’s on his way

Risen with healing in His wings, Light and life to all He brings, Hail, the Son of Righteousness!

Hail, the heaven-born Prince of Peace!

Refrain

Christ, by highest heaven adored; Christ, the everlasting Lord; Late in time behold Him come, Offspring of the Virgin’s womb.

Veiled in flesh the Godhead see; Hail the incarnate Deity, Pleased as man with man to dwell; Jesus, our Emmanuel!

Refrain Mild He lays His glory by, Born that man no more may die, Born to raise the sons of earth, Born to give them second birth.

Bring me flesh, and bring me wine.

Bring me pine logs hither.

Thou and I will see him dine When we bear him thither.

Page and monarch, forth they went, Forth they went together Through the rude wind’s wild lament And the bitter weather.

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.

Hark! the herald angels sing Glory to the new-born King!

Peace on earth and mercy mild, God and sinners reconciled!

Joyful, all ye nations, rise, Join the triumph of the skies; With th’ angelic host proclaim Christ is born in Bethlehem!

Hark! the herald angels sing Glory to the new-born King!

Good King Wenceslas looked out On the feast of Stephen, When the snow lay round about, Deep and crisp and even.

Brightly shone the moon that night, Though the frost was cruel, When a poor man came in sight, Gathering winter fuel.

Hark! The Herald Angels Sing

Do You Hear What I Hear

O Holy Night!

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

A thrill of hope the weary world rejoices For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn

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.

Sweet hymns of joy in grateful chorus raise we Let all within us praise His holy Name Christ is the Lord then ever, ever praise we His pow’r and glory evermore proclaim His pow’r and glory evermore proclaim

Led by the light of faith serenely beaming With glowing hearts by His cradle we stand So, let by light of a star sweetly gleaming Here came the wise men from the Orient land

Silver Bells

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.

Hear the snow crunch See the kids bunch This is Santa’s big scene

You will get a sentimental feeling when you hear, Voices singing, “Let’s be jolly, Deck the halls with boughs of holly”,

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

Rockin’ around the Christmas tree,

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

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

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.

City sidewalks busy sidewalks .

The King of Kings lay thus in lowly manger In our trials born to be our friend He knows our need to our weakness no stranger Behold your King before Him lowly bend Behold your King before Him lowly bend

O holy night!

The stars are brightly shining It is the night of the dear Saviour’s birth Long lay the world in sin and error pining Till He appeared and the soul felt its worth

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

I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus I saw Mommy kissing Santa Claus underneath the mistletoe last night She didn’t see me creep down the stairs to have a peep;

She thought that I was tucked up in my bedroom fast asleep Then I saw Mommy tickle Santa Claus underneath his beard so snowy white;

Oh what a laugh it would have been if Daddy had only seen Mommy kissing Santa Claus last night

Grandma Got Run Over By A Reindeer 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 and Grandpa, we believe.

She’d been drinkin’ too much egg nog, And we’d begged her not to go.

But she’d left her medication, So she stumbled out the door into the snow.

When they found her Christmas mornin’, At the scene of the attack.

There were hoof prints on her forehead, And incriminatin’ Claus marks on her back.

Grandma got run over by a reindeer, Walkin’ home from our house Christmas eve.

You can say there’s no such thing as Santa, But as for me and Grandpa, we believe.

See him in there watchin’ football, Drinkin’ beer and playin’ cards with cousin Belle.

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?

But my one wish on Christmas Eve is as plain as it can be!

All I want for Christmas is my two front teeth, my two front teeth, see my two front teeth!

Gee, if I could only have my two front teeth, then I could with you “Merry Christmas.”

It seems so long since I could say, “Sister Susie sitting on a thistle!”

Gosh oh gee, how happy I’d be, if I could only whistle (thhhh) All I want for Christmas is my two front teeth, my two front teeth, see my two front teeth.

Gee, if I could only have my two front teeth, then I could wish you “Merry Christmas!”
