The most favorite Christmas Carols

 

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!

 

WE WISH YOU A MERRY CHRISTMAS

We Wish You a Merry Christmas

We wish you a Merry Christmas,

We wish you a Merry Christmas,

We wish you a Merry Christmas,

And a Happy New Year.

We all know that Santa’s coming,

We all know that Santa’s coming,

We all know that Santa’s coming,

And soon will be here.

 

 

JINGLE BELLS

Dashing through the snow, in a one-horse open sleigh,
Through 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!

Oh, jingle bells, jingle bells jingle all the way,
Oh what fun it is to ride in a one-horse open sleigh,
O 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 Fanny Bright Was seated by my side;
The horse was lean and lank Misfortune seemed his lot,
We ran into a drifted bank And there we got upsot.

(Repeat Chorus)

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 at me as I there sprawling laid, but quickly drove away.

(Repeat Chorus)

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

 

JOY THE WORLD

Joy to the world! The Lord is come:
Let earth receive her King.
Let every heart prepare Him room,
And heaven and nature sing,
And heaven and nature sing,
And heaven and heaven and nature sing.

He rules the world with truth and grace,
And makes the nations prove
The glories of His righteousness
And wonders of His love,
And wonders of His love,
And wonders, wonders of His love.

 

 

SANTA CLAUS IS COMING TO TOWN

You better watch out,
You better not cry,
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 and nice.
Santa Claus is coming to town.

He sees you when you’re sleeping.
He knows when you’re awake.
He knows if you’ve been bad or good,
So be good for goodness sake!

Oh, you better watch out!

You better not cry.
Better not pout,
I’m telling you why:
Santa Claus is coming to town.
Santa Claus is coming to town!

 

BLUE CHRISTMAS

I’ll have a blue Christmas without you;

I’ll be so blue thinking about you.

Decorations of red

on a green Christmas tree

Won’t mean a thing if

you’re not here with me

I’ll have a blue Christmas, that’s certain;

And when that blue heartache starts hurting,

You’ll be doing all right

with your Christmas of white,

But I’ll have a blue, blue Christmas.

 

 

O CHRISTMAS TREE

O Christmas Tree,

O Christmas Tree,

How steadfast are

your branches!

Your boughs are green

in summer’s clime

And through the snows

of wintertime.

O Christmas Tree,

O Christmas Tree,

How steadfast are

your branches!

O Christmas Tree,

O Christmas Tree,

What happiness befalls me

When oft at

joyous Christmas-time

Your form inspires

my song and rhyme.

O Christmas Tree,

O Christmas Tree,

What happiness befalls me

O Christmas Tree,

O Christmas Tree,

Your boughs can

teach a lesson

That constant faith

and hope sublime

Lend strength and

comfort through all time.

O Christmas Tree,

O Christmas Tree,

Your boughs can

teach a lesson

 

WHITE CHRISTMAS

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.

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.

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.

 

RUDOLF THE RED NOISE REINDER

You know Dasher and Dancer and Prancer and Vixen,
Comet and Cupid and Donder and Blitzen.,
But do you recall
The most famous reindeer of all?

Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer
Had a very shiny nose,
And if you ever saw it,
You could 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 how the reindeer loved him
As they shouted out with glee,
Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer,
You’ll go down in history.”

 

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.

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.”

Thumpetty thump thump,

thumpety thump thump,

Look at Frosty go.

Thumpetty thump thump,

thumpety thump thump,

Over the hills of snow.

 

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,
Heavely 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 dwan of redeeming grace,
Jesus, Lord, at thy birth.
Jesus, Lord, at thy birth.

 

CHRIST IS BORN IN BETHLEHEM

Christ, by highest heaven adored
Christ, the everlasting Lord;
Late in time behold Him come
Offspring of a virgin’s womb.
Veiled in flesh the Godhead see;
Hail th’ Incarnate Deity,
Pleased as man with man to dwell;
Jesus, our Emmanuel.

Come, Desire of nations come,
Fix in us Thy humble home;
Rise, the Woman’s conquering Seed,
Bruise in us the Serpent’s head.
Adam’s likeness, Lord efface:
Stamp Thy image in its place;
Second Adam, from above,
Reinstate us in thy love.

Hail, the heav’n-born Prince of Peace!
Hail, the Son of Righteousness!
Light and life to all He brings,
Ris’n with healing in His wings.
Mild He lays His glory by,
Born that man no more may die,
Born to raise the sons of earth.

 

CHRISTMAS DAY

Christmas Day is here and so are we
Time for children and presents
And Christmas trees.

Happiness, loveliness,
Christmas bells ringing out
goodwill to men and peace on earth.

Ev’ry thing they taught you
When you were a child
The things a Child once taught the world.

If Christmas day is really in your heart
You don’t have to save up all your love
To give once a year
Learn to give, try to live
Each day like Christmas Day.

 

MERRY CHRISTMAS

So this is Christmas
And what have you done
Another year over
A new one just began
And so this is Christmas
I hope you have fun
The near and the dear one
The old one and the young

A Very Merry Christmas
And a Happy New Year
Let’s hope it’s a good one
Without any fear

And so this is Christmas
For weak and for strong
For rich and the poor ones
The world is so wrong
And so happy Christmas
For black and for white
For yellow and red ones
Let’s stop all the fight
A Very Merry Christmas
And a Happy New Year
Let’s hope it’s a good one
Without any fear

 

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

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

O Star of wonder, star of night
Star with royal beauty bright
Westward leading, still proceeding
Guide us to Thy perfect light

Frankincense to offer have I
Incense owns a Deity nigh
Prayer and praising, all men raising
Worship Him, God most high

O Star of wonder, star of night
Star with royal beauty bright
Westward leading, still proceeding
Guide us to Thy perfect light

Myrrh is mine, its bitter perfume
Breathes of life of gathering gloom
Sorrowing, sighing, bleeding, dying
Sealed in the stone-cold tomb

O Star of wonder, star of night
Star with royal beauty bright
Westward leading, still proceeding
Guide us to Thy perfect light

Glorious now behold Him arise
King and God and Sacrifice
Alleluia, Alleluia
Earth to heav’n replies

O Star of wonder, star of night
Star with royal beauty bright
Westward leading, still proceeding
Guide us to Thy perfect light

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

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

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.

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

 

HERE COMES SANTA CLAUS

Speakin’ of Christmas spirit,
Each year, out in Hollywood, California,
They have what they call the Santa Claus parade
A few years ago, while I was riding in this parade
I saw smiles on thousands of faces
Both young and old alike
Waitin’ for a look at that most popular man all over the world
I can hear ’em shoutin’ now
Here comes Santa Claus, Here comes Santa Claus, Here comes Santa Claus

Here comes Santa Claus,

Right down Santa Claus Lane,
Vixen and Blitzen and all his reindeer
Pullin’ on the reins.
Bells are ringin’, children singin’,
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’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, and cover your head,
‘Cause Santa Claus comes tonight.

Here comes Santa Claus,
Here comes Santa Claus,
Right down Santa Claus Lane,
He’ll come around when chimes ring out,
It’s Christmas time 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.

O COME ALL YE FAITHFUL

O come all ye faithful joyful and triumphant
Oh come ye O come ye to Bethlehem;
Come and behold him born the King of angels;
O come let us adore him Christ the Lord.

God of God light of light
Lo he abhors not the virgin’s womb;
Very God begotten not created:

Sing choirs of angels sing in exultation
Sing all ye citizens of heaven above;
Glory to God in the highest:
O come, let us adore him, Christ the Lord.

See how the shepards summoned to his cradel,
Leaving their flocks, draw nigh with lowly fear;
We too will thither hend our joyful footsteps;
O come, let us adore him, Christ the Lord.

Yea, Lord, we greet thee, born this happy morning;
Jesus, to thee be glory given;
Word of the Father, now in flesh appearing:
O come, let us adore him, Christ the Lord.

 

SILVER BELLS

City sidewalks busy sidewalks.
Dressed in holiday style
In the air
There’s a feeling
Of Christmas
Children laughing
People passing
Meeting smile after smile
And on ev’ry street corner you’ll hear

Silver bells silver bells
It’s Christmas time in the city
Ring a ling hear them sing
Soon it will be Christmas day

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

Hear the snow crunch
See the kids bunch
This is Santa’s big scene
And above all this bustle
You’ll hear
Silver bells, silver bells
It’s Christmas time in the city
Ring-a-ling, hear them sing
Soon it will be Christmas day
