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?"
R0011149449
Then all the reindeer loved him as they shouted out with glee, Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer, you'll go down in history!

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! R0011141888

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

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."

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
a
Hi
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!)

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!!! )

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

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.
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.
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.
