The First Noel. Winter Wonderland. 2 lines of instrumental intro

Transcription

1 Winter Wonderland Sleigh bells ring, are you listening, In the lane, snow is glistening A beautiful sight, We're happy tonight. Gone away is the bluebird, Here to stay is a new bird He sings a love song, As we go along, In the meadow we can build a snowman, Then pretend that he is Parson Brown He'll say: Are you married? We'll say: No man, But you can do the job When you're in town. Later on, we'll conspire, As we dream by the fire To face unafraid, The plans that we've made, When it snows, ain't it thrilling, Though your nose gets a chilling We'll frolic and play, the Eskimo way, In the meadow we can build a snowman, And pretend that he's a circus clown We'll have lots of fun with mister snowman, Until the other kids knock him down. The First Noel 2 lines of instrumental intro The first Noel, the angel 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. Born is the King of Israel. Born is the King of Israel 1 line of instrumental 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. Born is the King of Israel. Born is the King of Israel 1 line of instrumental 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. Born is the King of Israel. Born is the King of Israel Later on, we'll conspire, As we dream by the fire To face unafraid, The plans that we've made, (hold slowly)

2 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 shown the moon that night, though the frost was cruel, when a poor man came in sight, gathering winter fuel. 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. Bring me flesh, and bring me wine. Bring me pine logs hither. Thou and I will see him dine when we bear the 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. Ark 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 dented. 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. We Three Kings of Orient Are We three kings of Orient are Bearing gifts we traverse afar. Field and fountain, moor and mountain, Following yonder star. Chorus O star of wonder, star of night, Star with 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. Frankincense to offer have I. Incense owns a Deity nigh. Prayer and praising all men raising, Worship Him, God on high. Myrrh is mine: Its bitter perfume Breaths a life of gathering gloom. Sorrowing, sighing, bleeding dying, Sealed in the stone-cold tomb. Glorious now behold Him arise, King and God and Sacrifice. Alleluia, alleluia! Sounds through the earth and skies.

3 Jingle Bells Dashing through the snow O'er the fields we go Laughing all the way Bells on bob tails ring Making spirits bright What fun it is to laugh and sing A sleighing song tonight Oh, jingle bells, jingle bells 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 We got into a drifted bank And then we got upsot Oh, jingle bells, jingle bells yeah 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 the dawn of redeeming grace, Jesus, Lord, at thy birth. Jesus, Lord, at thy birth Little Donkey Little Donkey Little Donkey On the dusty road Got to keep on plodding onward With your precious load Been a long time little donkey Through the winter's night Don't give up now little donkey Bethlehem's in sight Chorus: Ring out those bells tonight Bethlehem Bethlehem Follow that star tonight Bethlehem Bethlehem Little Donkey Little Donkey had a heavy day Little donkey Little donkey carry Mary safely on her way Repeat Chorus Little Donkey Little Donkey journey's end is near There are wise men waiting for us & to bring them here Do not falter little donkey to a cattle shed Repeat Chorus Little donkey little donkey had a heavy day Little Donkey little donkey carry Mary safely on her way Do not falter little donkey, there's a star ahead, It will guide you little donkey, to a cattle shed.

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. 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 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. 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 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."

6 . When A Child Is Born A ray of hope flickers in the sky A tiny star lights up way up high All across the land dawns a brand new morn This comes to pass when a child is born A silent wish sails the seven seas The winds of change whisper in the trees And the walls of doubt crumble tossed and torn This comes to pass, when a child is born A rosy hue settles all around You got the feel, you're on solid ground For a spell or two no one seems forlorn This comes to pass, when a child is born Spoken: And all of this happens, because the world is waiting. Waiting for one child; Black-white-yellow, no one knows... but a child that will grow up and turn tears to laughter, hate to love, war to peace and everyone to everyone's neighbour, and misery and suffering will be words to be forgotten forever. We Wish You A Merry Christmas We wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Good tidings we bring to you and your kin; Good tidings for Christmas and a Happy New Year. Oh, bring us a figgy pudding; Oh, bring us a figgy pudding; Oh, bring us a figgy pudding and a cup of good cheer. Refrain We won't go until we get some; We won't go until we get some; We won't go until we get some, so bring some out here. Refrain We wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. It's all a dream and illusion now, It must come true sometime soon somehow, All across the land dawns a brand new morn, This comes to pass when a child is born. It's all a dream and illusion now, It must come true sometime soon somehow, All across the land dawns a brand new morn, This comes to pass when a child is born. It's all a dream and illusion now, It must come true sometime soon somehow, All across the land dawns a brand new morn, This comes to pass when a child is born.
