Hark! How the bells, sweet silver bells,
all seem to say, throw cares away
Christmas is here, bringing good cheer,
to young and old, meek and the bold,
Oh how they pound, raising the sound,
o'er hill and dale, telling their tale,
Gaily they ring, while people sing
songs of good cheer, Christmas is here,
Merry, merry, merry, merry Christmas,
Merry, merry, merry, merry Christmas,
On on they send, on without end,
their oyful tone to every home
!ong !ing dong ding, dong "ong

Carol Of The Birds

Upon this holy night,
When God's great star appears,
And floods the earth with brightness
Birds' voices rise in song
And warbling all night long
Express their glad heart's lightness
Birds' voices rise in song
And warbling all night long
Express their glad heart's lightness
The Nightingale is first
To bring his song of cheer,
And tell s of !is glad " ness#
$ess, or %ord, is born
To free s fro& all sin
And banish ev'ry sadness'
$ess, or %ord is born
To free s fro& all sin
And banish ev'ry sadness'

It Came Upon The Midnight Clear
It came upon the midnight clear,
That glorious song of old,
From angels bending near the earth
To touch their harps of gold;
"Peace on the earth, good will to men
From heavens all-gracious King"
The world in solemn stillness la!
To hear the angels sing"
#till through the cloven s$ies the! come
%ith peaceful wings unfurled,
&nd still their heavenl! music floats
'(er all the wear! world;
&bove its sad and lowl! plains
The! bend on hovering wing,
&nd ever o(er its )abel-sounds
The blessed angels sing"
)ut with the woes of sin and strife
The world has suffered long;
)eneath the angel-strain have rolled
Two thousand !ears of wrong;
&nd man, at war with man, hears not
The love song which the! bring;
' hush the noise, !e men of strife,
&nd hear the angels sing*
&nd !e, beneath life(s crushing load,
%hose forms are bending low,
%ho toil along the climbing wa!
%ith painful steps and slow,
+oo$ now* for glad and golden hours
,ome swiftl! on the wing;
'h, rest beside the wear! road
&nd hear the angels sing*
For lo* the da!s are hastening on
)! prophet bards foretold,
%hen, with the ever circling !ears
#hall come the age of gold;
%hen Peace shall over all the earth,
Its ancient splendors fling,
&nd the whole world give bac$ the song,
%hich now the angels sing"

Dashing thro' the snow,
In a one horse open sleigh,
O'er the hills we go,
Laughing all the way;
Bells on bob tail ring,
Making spirits bright,
Oh what sport to ride and sing
A sleighing song to night.
Chorus:
ingle bells, ingle bells,
ingle all the way;
Oh! what "oy it is to ride
In a one horse open sleigh.
ingle bells, ingle bells,
ingle all the way
Oh! what "oy it is to ride
In a one horse open sleigh.
A day or two ago
I tho't I'd take a ride
And soon Miss #annie Bright
$as seated by %y side,
&he horse was lean and lank
Mis'ortune see%'d his lot
(e got into a dri'ted bank
And we ) we got up sot. Chorus
A day or two ago,
&he story I %ust tell
I went out on the snow
And on %y ba*k I 'ell;
A gent was riding by
In a one horse open sleigh,
(e laughed as there I sprawling lie,
But +ui*kly dro,e away. Chorus
-ow the ground is white,
.o it while you're young,
&ake the girls to night
And sing this sleighing song;
ust get a bob tailed bay
&wo 'orty as his speed
(it*h hi% to an open sleigh
And *ra*k, you'll take the lead. Chorus

O Come, Little Children
O come, little children, O come, one and all.
To Bethlehem haste, to the manger so small.
Gods Son for a gift has been sent you this day.
To be your redeemer, your joy and delight.
The hay is His pillow, the manger His bed
The beasts stand in wonder to gae on His head
!et there where He lieth, so wea" and so poor
#ome shepherds and wise men to "neel at His
door
Hes born in a stable for you and for me,
$raw near by the bright gleaming starlight to see,
%n swaddling clothes lying so mee" and so mild,
&nd purer than angels the hea'enly child.
See (ary and )oseph with lo'e beaming eyes
&re gaing upon the rude bed where He lies,
The shepherds are "neeling, with hearts full of
lo'e,
*hile angels sing loud hallelujahs abo'e.
+neel down and adore Him with shepherds
today,
,ift up little hands now and praise Him as they-
.ejoice that a Sa'ior from sin you can boast,
&nd join in the song of the hea'enly host.
/ow 0Glory to God10 sing the angels on high.
&nd 02eace upon 3arth10 hea'enly 'oices reply.
Then come little children, and join in the day
That gladdened the world on that first #hristmas

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.

And praises sing to $od the %ing,
And pea#e to men on earth.

And gathered all above,

Their wat#h of wondering love.

The blessings of His Heaven.

While angel hosts from heav'n come winging,
Sweetest songs of jo are singing,
Sleep, sleep, sleep,

The First Nowell
The first Nowell the Angel did say
Was to three poor Shepherds in fields as they lay.
In fields where they lay keeping their sheep,
In a cold winters night that was so deep.
Chorus
Nowell, nowell, nowell, nowell.
Born is the King of Israel.
They looked up and saw a star
Shining in the ast, !eyond the" far,
And to the earth it ga#e great light,
And so it continued, !oth day and night. Chorus
And !y the light of that sa"e Star
Three Wise $en ca"e fro" country far,
To seek for a King was their intent,
And to follow the Star where#er it went. Chorus
This Star drew nigh to the North West%
&'er Bethlehe" it took it's rest.
And there it did !oth stop and stay,
(ight o#er the place where )esus lay. Chorus
Then did they know assuredly
Within that house, the King did lie
&ne entered in then for to see
And found the !a!e in po#erty. Chorus
Then enter'd in those Wise $en three,
*ull re#erently upon their knee,
And offer'd there, in his presence,
Their gold, and "yrrh, and frankincense. Chorus
Between an o+ stall and an ass,
This ,hild truly there !orn he was%
*or want of clothing they did hi" lay
All in a "anger, a"ong the hay. Chorus
Then let us all with one accord
Sing praises to our hea#enly -ord%
That hath "ade hea#en and earth of nought,
And with his !lood "ankind hath !ought. Chorus
If we in our ti"e shall do well
We shall !e free fro" death and .ell
*or /od hath prepared for us all
A resting place in general. Chorus
