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. 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.

Rudolph, The Red-Nosed Reindeer Rudolph, the red-nosed reindeer had a very shiny nose. And if you ever saw him, you would even say it glows. 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 all the reindeer loved him as they shouted out with glee, Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer, you'll go down in history!

Santa Claus Is Comin' To Town You better watch out, You better not cry, You better not pout, I'm telling you why: Santa Claus is coming to town! He's making a list, And checking it twice, Gonna find out who's naughty or nice. Santa Claus is coming to town! He sees you when you're sleeping, He knows when you're awake. He knows when you've been bad or good, So be good for goodness sake!

Little toy dolls that cuddle and coo, Elephants, boats and Kiddie cars too. Santa Claus is coming to town. The kids in Girl and boy land Will have a jubilee. They're gonna build a toy land town All around the Christmas tree. SO!....You better watch out, you better not cry. You better not pout, I'm telling you why. Santa Claus is coming to town.

OH!...You better watch out, You better not cry You better not pout, I'm Telling you why. Santa Claus is coming to town. Little tin horns, little toy drums. Rudy-toot-toot and rummy tum tums. Santa Claus is coming to town.

Frosty the Snowman Frosty the Snowman, was a jolly happy soul, With a corn cob pipe and a button nose, and two eyes made of coal. Frosty the Snowman, is a fairytale, they say. He was made of snow, but the children know he came to life one day.

Thumpety thump, thump, thumpety 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."

There must have been some magic in that old silk hat they found,

Down to the village, with a broomstick in his hand, Running here and there, all around the square, sayin', "Catch me if you can."

For when they placed it on his head, he began to dance around!

He led them down the streets of town, right to the traffic cop;

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.

and only paused a moment, when he heard him holler, "Stop!"

Thumpety thump, thump, thumpety thump, thump, look at Frosty go.

For Frosty, the Snowman, had to hurry on his way, But he waved goodbye, sayin' "Don't cry, I'll be back again some day."

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!

Merry Christmas

Here Comes Santa Claus Here comes Santa Claus! Here comes Santa Claus! Right down Santa Claus Lane! Vixen and Blitzen and all his reindeer 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'll come around when the chimes ring out That it's Christmas morn again Peace on earth will come to all If we just follow the light So let's give thanks to the lord above '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 boys and girls again. Hear those sleigh bells jingle jangle, Oh, What a beautiful sight. So jump in bed, cover your head, 'Cause Santa Claus comes tonight. Here comes Santa Claus, here comes Santa Claus, Right down Santa Claus lane He doesn't care if you're rich or poor He loves you just the same Santa Claus knows we're all God's children That makes everything right So fill your hearts with Christmas cheer 'Cause Santa Claus comes tonight!

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

Away in a Manger Away in a manger, No crib for His bed The little Lord Jesus Laid down His sweet head

I love Thee, Lord Jesus Look down from the sky And stay by my side, 'Til morning is nigh.

The stars in the bright sky Looked down where He lay The little Lord Jesus Asleep on the hay

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

The cattle are lowing The poor Baby wakes But little Lord Jesus No crying He makes

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 tonight

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.

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 And Peace to men on earth

O holy Child of Bethlehem Descend to us, we pray Cast out our sin and enter in Be born to us today We hear the Christmas angels The great glad tidings tell O come to us, abide with us Our Lord Emmanuel

O Holy Night 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 Spirit 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! O night divine, the night when Christ was born; O night, O Holy Night , O night divine! O night, O Holy Night , O night divine! Led by the light of faith serenely beaming, With glowing hearts by His cradle we stand. O'er the world a star is sweetly gleaming, Now come the wisemen

from out of the Orient land. The King of kings lay thus lowly manger; In all our trials born to be our friends. He knows our need, our weakness is no stranger, Behold your King! Before him lowly bend! Behold your King! Before him lowly bend! Truly He taught us to love one another, His law is love and His gospel is peace. Chains he shall break, for the slave is our brother. And in his name all oppression shall cease. Sweet hymns of joy in grateful chorus raise we, With all our hearts we praise His holy name. Christ is the Lord! Then ever, ever praise we, His power and glory ever more proclaim! His power and glory ever more proclaim!

From Our Family To Yours, MERRY CHRISTMAS! From

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.

Merry Christmas from All of Us at

Let it snow 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've brought 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! But if you'll really hold me tight, All the way home I'll be warm. The fire is slowly dying, And, my dear, we're still good-bying, But as long as you love me so, Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!
