On the first day of Christmas,
my true love sent to me
A partridge in a pear tree.
On the second day of Christmas,
my true love sent to me
Two turtle doves,
And a partridge in a pear tree.
…Four calling birds…
…Five golden rings…
…Six geese a-laying…
…Seven swans a-swimming…
…Eight maids a-milking…
…Nine ladies dancing…
…Ten lords a-leaping…
…Eleven pipers piping…
…Twelve drummers drumming…
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?
Refrain:
This, this is Christ the King,
Whom shepherds guard and angels sing:
Haste, haste to bring him laud,
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 the song on high,
The Virgin sings her lullaby:
Joy, joy, for Christ is born,
The Babe, the Son of Mary!
We three kings of Orient are
Bearing gifts we traverse afar
Field and fountain, moor and mountain
Following yonder star Refrain
Refrain:
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 rein Refrain
Frankincense to offer have I
Incense owns a Deity nigh
Pray’r and praising, all men raising
Worship Him, God most high Refrain
Myrrh is mine, its bitter perfume
Breathes of life of gathering gloom
Sorrowing, sighing, bleeding, dying
Sealed in the stone-cold tomb Refrain
I’m dreaming of a white Christmas,
Just like the ones I used to know,
Where the tree tops 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 love the winter weather
So the two of us can get together
There’s nothing sweeter, finer
When it’s nice and cold I can hold my baby closer to me
And collect the kisses that are due me
I love the winter weather
Because I’ve got my love to keep me warm
I love the winter weather
‘cause that’s when you and I can get together
There’s nothing sweeter, finer
When there’s ice and snow
Don’t you know I’ll hold you tightly to me
And I will get that love that is due me
I love the winter weather
Because I’ve got my love to keep me warm
Take the summer you can have a ball
Take the springtime or even the fall
But I guess I like the winter most of all
We wish you a Merry Christmas; We wish you a Merry Christmas; We wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
Refrain:
Good tidings we bring to you and your kin; Good
tidings for Christmas and a Happy New Year.
Oh, bring us some figgy pudding; Oh, bring us some figgy pudding; Oh, bring us some 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; We wish you a Merry
Christmas;
We wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New
Year.
