Up on the house top reindeer paws
Out  jumps good old Santa Claus
Down through the chimney with lots of toys
All for the little ones, Christmas joys
Ho, ho ho! Who wouldn't go?
Ho, ho ho! Who wouldn't go?

Up on the housetop, click, click, click
Down through the chimney with good Saint Nick

[2]
First comes the stocking of little Nell
Oh, dear Santa fill it well
Give her a dolly that laughs and cries
One that will open and shut her eyes
Ho, ho, ho! Who wouldn't go?
Ho, ho, ho! Who wouldn't go?

Up on the housetop, click, click, click
Down through the chimney with good Saint Nick

[3]
Next comes the stocking of little Will
Oh, just see what a glorious fill
Here is a hammer and lots of tacks
Also a ball and a whip that cracks
Ho, ho ho! Who wouldn't go?
Ho, ho, ho! Who wouldn't go?

Up on the housetop, click, click, click
Down through the chimney with good Saint Nick

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.

[2]
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!

[3]
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.

[4]
Silent night, Holy night,
Wondrous star, lend Thy light;
With the angel let us sing,
Alleluia to our King;
Christ the Saviour is born,
Christ the Saviour is born

WHILE SHEPHERDS WATCHED THEIR FLOCKS

[1]
While shepherds watched their flocks by night,
All seated on the ground;
The angel of the Lord came down,
And glory shone around.

[2]
“Fear not!” said he, for mighty dread
Had seized their troubled mind “
Glad tidings of great joy l bring
To all of humankind.”

[3]
To you in David’s town this day
Is born of David’s line
A Saviour, who is Christ the Lord,
And this shall be the sign.

[4]
“The heavenly babe you there shall find
To human view displayed,
All meanly wrapped in swathing bands,
And in a manger laid”

[1]
Once in Royal David’s city
Stood a lowly cattle shed,
Where a mother laid her baby
In a manger for His bed;
Mary was that mother mild,
Jesus Christ her little child.

[2]
He came down to earth from heaven
Who is God and Lord of all,
And His shelter was a stable
And His cradle was a stall.
With the poor and mean and lowly
Lived on earth our Saviour holy.

[3]
Jesus is our childhood pattern;
Day by day, like us He grew;
He was little weak and helpless,
Tears and smiles like us He knew;
And He feeleth for our sadness,
And He shareth in our gladness.

[4]
And our eyes at last shall see Him,
Through His own redeeming love;
For that child so dear and gentle
Is our Lord in heaven above;
And He leads His children on
To the place where he is gone.

[1]
Brightest and best of the sons of the morning,
Dawn on our darkness and lend us Thy aid;
Star of the East, the horizon adorning,
Guide where our infant Redeemer is laid.

[2]
Cold on His cradle the dewdrops are shining;
Low lies His head with the beasts of the stall;
Angels adore Him in slumber reclining,
Maker and Monarch and Saviour of all!

[3]
Say, shall we yield Him, in costly devotion,
Odors of Edom and offerings divine?
Gems of the mountain and pearls of the ocean,
Myrrh from the forest, or gold from the mine?

[4]
Vainly we offer each ample oblation,
Vainly with gifts would His favor secure;
Richer by far is the heart’s adoration,
Dearer to God are the prayers of the poor.

[1]
Christians, awake, salute the happy morn
Whereon the Saviour of the world was born.
Rise to adore the mystery of love
Which hosts of angels chanted from above,
With them the joyful tidings first begun
Of God incarnate and the virgin’s Son.

[2]
Then to the watchful shepherds it was told,
Who heard th’angelic herald’s voice,
“Behold, I bring good tidings of a Saviour’s birth
To you and all the nations of the earth;
This day hath God fulfilled His promised Word;
This day is born a Saviour, Christ the Lord.”

[3]
He spoke; and straightaway the celestial choir
In hymns of joy, unknown before, conspire;
The praises of redeeming love they sang,
And Heav’n’s whole orb with alleluias rang.
God’s highest glory was their anthem still,
Peace on the earth and unto men good will.

[4]
To Bethlehem straight th’enlightened shepherds ran
To see the wonder God had wrought for man
And found, with Joseph and the blessèd maid,
Her Son, the Saviour, in a manger laid;
Then to their flocks, still praising God, return,

And their glad hearts with holy rapture burn.

[1]
Deck the hall with boughs of holly,
Fa la la la la, la la la la.
‘Tis the season to be jolly,
Fa la la la la, la la la la.
Don we now our gay apparel,
Fa la la, la la la, la la la.
Troll the ancient Yule tide carol,
Fa la la la la, la la la la.

[2]
See the blazing Yule before us,
Fa la la la la, la la la la.
Strike the harp and join the chorus.
Fa la la la la, la la la la.
Follow me in merry measure,
Fa la la la la, la la la la.
While I tell of Yule tide treasure,
Fa la la la la, la la la la.

[3]
Fast away the old year passes,
Fa la la la la, la la la la.
Hail the new, ye lads and lasses,
Fa la la la la, la la la la.
Sing we joyous, all together,
Fa la la la la, la la la la.
Heedless of the wind and weather,
Fa la la la la, la la la la.

[1]
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

[2]
“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.”

[3]
“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

[4]
“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.”

[1]
Hark! the herald angels sing
“Glory to the newborn King
Peace on earth and mercy mild,
God and sinners reconciled!”
Joyful, all ye nations rise;
Join the triumph of the skies;
With angelic host proclaim
“Christ is born in Bethlehem!”
Hark! the herald angels sing
“Glory to the newborn King!”

[2]
Christ, by highest heaven adored;
Christ the everlasting Lord;
Late in time behold Him come,
Offspring of the virgin’s womb.
Veiled in flesh, the Godhead see;
Hail the incarnate Deity
Pleased as man with men to dwell,
Jesus, our Emmanuel
Hark! the herald angels sing,
“Glory to the newborn King!”

[3]
Hail! the heaven-born Prince of Peace!
Hail! the Son of Righteousness!
Light and life to all He brings,
Risen 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,
Born to give them second birth
Hark! the herald angels sing,
“Glory to the newborn King!

 [1]
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;

Refrain
O come let us adore Him,
O come let us adore Him,
O come let us adore Him,
Christ the Lord

[2]
True God of true God, Light of Light Eternal,
Lo, He shuns not the Virgin’s womb;
Son of the Father, begotten not created;

[3] Sing choirs of angels, sing in exultation;
O sing, all ye citizens of heaven above!
Glory to God, all glory in the highest

[4]
See how the shepherds summoned to His cradle,
Leaving their flocks, draw nigh to gaze;
We too will thither bend our joyful steps;

[5]
Child for us sinners, poor and in a manger,
We would embrace Thee with love and awe.
Who would not love Thee, loving us so dearly?

[1]
See amid the winter’s snow,
Born for us on earth below,
See, the tender Lamb appears,
Promised from eternal years.

Refrain
Hail thou ever blessed morn,
Hail redemption happy morn,
Sing through all Jerusalem:
Christ is born in Bethlehem.

[2]
Lo, within a manger lies
He Who built the starry skies;
He Who throned in height sublime,
Sits amid the cherubim.

[3]
Say, you holy shepherds, say,
Tell your joyful news today.
Why have you now left your sheep
On the lonely mountain steep?

[4]
As we watched at dead of night,
Lo! We saw a wondrous light;
Angels singing “Peace on earth”
Told us of the Saviour’s birth

[5]
Sacred Infant, all divine,
What a tender love was Thine,
Thus to come from highest bliss

Down to such a world as this.

[1]
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,

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

[2]
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.

[3]
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.

[4]
This star drew nigh to the northwest,
O’er Bethlehem it took its rest;
And there it did both stop and stay,
Right over the place where Jesus lay.

[1]
O come, o come, Immanuel
And ransom captive Israel,
That mourns in lonely exile here
Until the Son of God appear.
Rejoice! Rejoice! Immanuel
Shall come to thee, o Israel!

[2]
O come, Thou Rod of Jesse, free
Thine own from Satan’s tyranny;
From depths of hell Thy people save,
And give them victory o’er the grave
Rejoice! Rejoice! Immanuel
Shall come to thee, o Israel!

[1]
The holly and the Ivy,
When they are both full grown
Of all the trees that are in the wood,
The holly bears a crown:

Chorus
The rising of the sun,
And running of the dear
The playing of the merry organ,
Sweet singing in the choir

[2]
The holly bears a blossom,
As white as any flower
And Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ,
To be our sweet Saviour

[3]
The holly bears a berry,
As red as any blood
And Mary bore sweet Jesus Christ,
To do poor sinners good
