LET IT SNOW Sammy Cahn, Jule Styne (c) 1945

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 brought some corn for popping; The lights are turned way down low, Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow.

When we finally say good night, How I’ll hate going out in the storm; But if you really hold me tight, All the way home I’ll be warm.

The fire is slowly dying, And, my dear, we’re still good-bye-ing, But as long as you love me so.

Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow.

We hope your Christmas is filled with family, friends and good times.

May joy surround you this holiday season!

Merry Christmas From Our Home to Yours

Wishing you and yours the best of the Holiday Season.

IT CAME UPON A MIDNIGHT CLEAR 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, goodwill to men From heavens all gracious King!”

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

O ye beneath life’s crushing load, Whose forms are bending low, Who toil along the climbing way With painful steps and slow; Look now, for glad and golden hours Come swiftly on the wing; Oh rest beside the weary road And hear the angels sing.

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

For lo! the days are hastening on, By prophets seen of old, When with the ever-circling years Shall come the time foretold, When the new heaven and earth shall own The Prince of Peace, their King, And the whole world send back the song Which now the angels sing.

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.

There's no better time than Christmas to open our hearts and tell you how much we enjoy having you for our neighbors and friends. Thanks for making us feel so at home here.

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!

These little soldiers have come to say, "Hope you enjoy a great holiday" And for the many kind things that you do, We salute each one of you!

Happy Holidays, everyone!

GRAMDMA 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 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.

Now we’re all so proud of grandpa, He’s been taking this so well.

See him in there watching football, Drinking root 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!!

Now the goose is on the table And the pudding made of fig And the blue and silver candles That would just have matched The hair on grandma’s wig.

I’ve warned all my Friends and neighbors Better watch out for yourselves, They should never give a license To a man who drives a sleigh And plays with elves

Greetings, Friends

The First Noel The First Noel, the Angels did say Was to certain poor shepherds in fields as they lay In fields where they lay keeping their sheep On a cold winter’s night that was so deep.

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

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!

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 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 Pause and stay Right o’er the place where Jesus lay.

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

AWAY IN A MANGER

WHITE CHRISTMAS

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

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

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.

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.

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.

ANGELS WE HAVE HEARD ON HIGH

As sung by David Archuleta

Angels we have heard on high, Sweetly singing o’er the plains And the mountains in reply Echoing their joyous strains. Gloria...

Chorus: Gloria, In Excelsius Deo

Shepherd why this jubilee, Why your joyous strains prolong What the gladsome tidings be, Which inspire your heavenly song?

Come to Bethlehem and see, Him whose birth the angels sing Come adore on bended knee, Christ the Lord the newborn king.

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

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.

It’s been a real treat serving you this past year.

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.

All the best to you and yours for a beautiful and sparkling holiday season.

“GO, TELL IT ON THE MOUNTAIN” While shepherds kept their watching Over silent flocks by night, Behold 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.

Keep Christ In Christmas

He made me a watchman Upon the city wall, And if I am a Christian, I am the least of all.

Go, Tell It On The Mountain, Over the hills and everywhere; Go, Tell It On The Mountain That Jesus Christ is born.

IN THE BLEAK MIDWINTER In the bleak midwinter Frost wind made moan Earth stood Hard as iron Water like a stone Snow had fallen Snow on snow Snow on snow In the bleak midwinter Long ago Our god Heaven cannot hold him Nor earth sustain Heaven and Earth Shall flee away When he comes to reign In the bleak midwinter A stable place sufficed The lord God almighty Jesus Christ

IT’S CHRISTMAS DAY

A baby boy was born one day In a stable far away He nestled in a manger bed On straw he laid his tiny head

(Chorus) It’s Christmas Day all over Earth Let the bells ring out for Jesus’s birth

(Chorus) It’s Christmas Day all over Earth Let the bells ring out for Jesus’s birth

They looked upon that infant face Saviour for the human race So every year on Christmas Day We’ll thank dear God in our own way

The shepherds came from near and far Guided by a lonely star The Wise men travelled night and day To Bethlehem where Jesus lay

(Chorus) It’s Christmas Day all over Earth Let the bells ring out for Jesus’s birth.

Angels and archangels May have gathered there Cherubim and seraphim Thronged the air But his mother only In her maiden bliss Worshiped the beloved With a kiss What can I give him Poor as I am?

If I were a shepherd I would bring a lamb If I were a wise man I would do my part Yet What I can I give him Give my heart

Strings of street lights, Even stop lights, Blink a bright red and green As the shoppers rush, home with their treasures.

My cousin’s family did not have much money. Instead of getting a new doll for Christmas they were surprised to find their doll all fixed up and wearing a new dress. If you have a favorite doll that needs a makeover or you purchase a second hand doll in need of some TLC the hints below will make them as good as new.

Hair: Doll’s hair can get tangled up when they are played with .The easiest way to untangle the doll’s hair is to lightly wet the hair and brush through the hair with a detangle brush. You should work from

the bottom to the top. If you decide to wash your doll’s hair be really careful if your doll has sleep eyes .Cover them up because they can rust. Conditioning after shampooing is as good for doll’s hair as for human’s hair.

Ink, pencil or crayon marks: If you are lucky enough to get at the marks before they set you can use liquid hand soap without water to remove the marks before they are set. Wipe off and the marks should come out.

If it is set into the plastic, cover the doll up except for her mark, place some acne cream on the spot.

Cover the spot with plastic wrap. Leave out in the sun. This only works on mild day’s not cold winter or scorching hot summer days. Pencil and crayon can sometimes be erased with a white art eraser. Sewing up a Cloth Body .This is one of the easiest repairs .Carefully sew torn edges together. You can also sew patches of cloth over a torn area. Put a pretty outfit on the doll. Your dolls is all ready for the holiday season.

Jesus your King is born, Jesus is born, in excelsis gloria.

Within a lodge of broken bark the tender babe was found; A ragged robe of rabbit skin enwrapped his beauty round But as the hunter braves drew nigh the angel song rang loud and high

WHAT CHILD IS THIS What child is this, who, laid to rest, On Mary’s lap is sleeping?

Whom angels greet with anthems sweet, While shepherds watch are keeping?

This, this is Christ the King, Whom shepherds guard and angels sing: Haste, haste to bring Him laud, The babe, the son of Mary.

Why lies He in such mean estate, Where ox and donkeys are feeding?

Good Christians, fear, for sinners here The silent Word is pleading.

Nails, spears shall pierce him through, the cross he bore for me, for you.

Hail, hail the Word made flesh, the Babe, the Son of Mary.

So bring him incense, gold, and myrrh, Come, peasant, king, to own him.

The King of kings salvation brings, Let loving hearts enthrone him.

Raise, raise a song on high, The virgin sings her lullaby Joy, joy for Christ is born, The babe, the Son of Mary.

This, this is Christ the King, Whom shepherds guard and angels sing: Haste, haste to bring Him laud, The babe, the son of Mary.

JINGLE BELLS James Lord Pierpont publ. 1857

Dashing through the snow On a one-horse open sleigh, Over the fields we go, Laughing all the way; Bells on bob-tail ring, making spirits bright, What fun it is to ride and sing A sleighing song tonight Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way!

O 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; He got into a drifted bank, And we, we got upsot.

Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells, Jingle all the way!

What fun it is to ride In a one-horse open sleigh.

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 as there I sprawling lie,

But quickly drove away.

Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells, Jingle all the way!

What fun it is to ride In a one-horse open sleigh.

Now the ground is white Go it while you’re young, Take the girls tonight And sing this sleighing song; Just get a bob-tailed bay two-forty as his speed Hitch him to an open sleigh And crack! you’ll take the lead.

Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells, Jingle all the way!

What fun it is to ride In a one-horse open sleigh.

FROSTY THE SNOW MAN 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.

O, 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.

Thumpetty thump thump, thumpety thump thump, Look at Frosty go.

Thumpetty thump thump, thumpety thump thump, Over the hills of snow.

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.”

Thumpetty thump thump, thumpety thump thump, Look at Frosty go.

Thumpetty 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.”

Down to the village, with a broomstick in his hand, Running here and there all

When we reflect upon our many blessings, we know that we wouldn’t be here without the support of good people like you.

May you have a joyous Yuletide and please know how much we appreciate your belief in us.

GOOD KING WENCESLAS 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 Gath’ring winter fuel “Hither, page, and stand by me If thou know’st 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.”

“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

“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 steps 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

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

THE HOLLY AND THE IVY

The holly and the ivy, When they are both full grown Of all the trees that are in the wood The holly bears the crown O the rising of the sun And the running of the deer The playing of the merry organ Sweet singing of the choir The holly bears a blossom As white as lily flower And Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ To be our sweet Saviour O the rising of the sun And the running of the deer The playing of the merry organ Sweet singing of the choir The holly bears a berry As red as any blood And Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ To do poor sinners good O the rising of the sun And the running of the deer The playing of the merry organ Sweet singing of the choir The holly bears a prickle As sharp as any thorn; And Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ On Christmas Day in the morn.

O the rising of the sun And the running of the deer

The playing of the merry organ Sweet singing of the choir

The holly bears a bark As bitter as any gall; And Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ For to redeem us all.

O the rising of the sun And the running of the deer The playing of the merry organ Sweet singing of the choir The holly and the ivy Now both are full well grown, Of all the trees that are in the wood, The holly bears the crown.

O the rising of the sun And the running of the deer The playing of the merry organ Sweet singing of the choir The version we of the Holly and the Ivy that we are familiar with today was first published by Cecil Sharp. The Holly and the Ivy is thought to have Pagan origins and could therefore date back over 1000 years. It is most unusual for a carol like the Holly and the Ivy to have survived over the years especially during the stern protestant period of the 17th century.

The Holly and the Ivy have always been taken indoors during the winter the hope being that the occupants would survive difficult conditions just like the hardy Holly and the Ivy. The colours of the Holly and Ivy, green and red are traditionally associated with Christmas. The author and composer of the Holly and the Ivy are unknown.

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

The shepherds at those tidings Rejoiced much in mind, And left their flocks a-feeding In tempest, storm and wind: And went to Bethlehem straightway The Son of God to find.

O tidings of comfort and joy, Comfort and joy O tidings of comfort and joy

In Bethlehem, in Israel, This blessed Babe was born And laid within a manger Upon this blessed morn The which His Mother Mary Did nothing take in scorn O tidings of comfort and joy, Comfort and joy O tidings of comfort and joy

And when they came to Bethlehem Where our dear Saviour lay, They found Him in a manger, Where oxen feed on hay; His Mother Mary kneeling down, Unto the Lord did pray.

O tidings of comfort and joy, Comfort and joy O tidings of comfort and joy Now to the Lord sing praises, All you within this place, And with true love and brotherhood Each other now embrace; This holy tide of Christmas All other doth deface.

From God our Heavenly Father A blessed Angel came; And unto certain Shepherds Brought tidings of the same: How that in Bethlehem was born The Son of God by Name.

O tidings of comfort and joy, Comfort and joy O tidings of comfort and joy “Fear not then,” said the Angel, “Let nothing you affright, This day is born a Saviour Of a pure Virgin bright, To free all those who trust in Him From Satan’s power and might.”

A Doll’s Spa DayMy cousin’s family did not have much money .Instead of getting a new doll for Christmas they were surprised to find their doll all fixed up and wearing a new dress.If you have a favorite doll that needs a makeover or you purchase a second hand doll in need of some TLC the hints below will make your dollars good as new.

Hair:Doll’s hair can get tangled up when they are played with .The easiest way to untangle the doll’s hair is to lightly wet the hair and brush through the with a detangler brush.You should work from the bottom to the top .If you decide to wash your doll’s hair being really careful if your doll has sleep eyes .Cover them up because they can rust.Conditioning after shampooing is as good for doll’s hair as for human’s hair.

Ink , Pencil or Crayon Marks: If you are lucky enough to get at the marks before they set you can use liquid hand soap without water to remove the marks before they are set.Wipe off and the marks should come off.If it is set in the plastic ,cover the doll up except for her mark, place some acne cream on the spot.Cover the spot with plastic wrap.Leave out in the sun.This only work on mild days not cold winter or scorching hot summer days.Pencil and crayon can sometimes be erased with a white art eraser .

Sewing up a Cloth Body .This is one of the easiest repairs .Carefully sew torn edges together.You can also sew patches of cloth over a torn area. Put a pretty outfit on the doll.Your doll is all ready for the holiday season.
