The Songs of Christmas
It Came Upon a Midnight Clear, on a
glorious Silent Night,
Joy to the World
As we hear the, First Noel, with
Tidings of Comfort and Joy…
O Come All Ye Faithful, Come Let Us
Adore Him
O Holy Night, see him there Away in a
Manger…
O Little Town of Bethlehem
How still we see thee lie…
We Three Kings
Come to honor the savior of the world…
Years later others would sing…
Dashing through the Snow, as Jingle
Bells were heard,
We’ll have A White Christmas and
Watch Mommy Kissing Santa Claus
Underneath the Christmas Tree.
We’ll Deck the Halls
And enjoy Chestnuts Roasting on an
Open Fire.
Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer, will
guide Santa to all the good little boys and girls.
Sitting in Santa’s lap, he’ll hear,
All I Want for Christmas…
On the First day of Christmas My true
love gave to me, a Partridge in a pear tree, to the twelve drummers drumming,
tis a time of merriment…
There’s Frosty the Snowman, a happy,
jolly soul…
Do You Hear What I Hear?
While Shepherds Watch, the Little
Drummer Boy.
God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen—
Hark, the Herald Angels Sing, glory
to the new born king!
I’ll Be Home for Christmas, if only
in my dreams…
So Have a Holly Jolly Christmas
And everybody sing…
We Wish You a Merry Christmas and a
Happy New Year.
Throughout our lives we’ve heard these
joyful songs
From Up on the House Top to O Holy
Night
Always remember the one who gave His
life…
Whether a Christmas song, that’s sung
Or a little story told…
History has been given to help us to
be bold…
T’was the night before Christmas and
all through the house not a creature was stirring not even a mouse…
Let us rejoice and give glory to
God…for…
Christ is Born in Bethlehem
Rejoice, Rejoice Emmanuel…
