Carols Around the Tree Song Practise

AWAY IN A MANGER

Away in a manger
No crib for His bed
The little Lord Jesus
Lay down His sweet head

The stars in the bright sky
Look down where He lay
The little Lord Jesus
Asleep on the hay

 

AWAY IN A MANGER(2ND Version)

Away in a manger
No crib for His bed
The little Lord Jesus
Lay down His sweet head

The stars in the bright sky
Look down where He lay
The little Lord Jesus
Asleep on the hay

The cattle are lowing
The Baby wakes
But little Lord Jesus
No crying He makes

I love Thee, Lord Jesus
Look down from the sky
And stay by my side
‘Til morning is nigh

 

DING DONG MERRILY ON HIGH

Ding dong merrily on high,
In heav’n the bells are ringing:
Ding dong! verily the sky
Is riv’n with angel singing
Gloria Hosanna in excelsis!
Gloria Hosanna in excelsis!

 

GOD REST YE MERRY GENTLEMAN

God rest ye merry gentlemen, let nothing you dismay
For Jesus Christ, our Savior was born on Christmas Day
To save us all from Satan’s powers when we were gone astray

Oh tidings of comfort and joy
Comfort and joy
Oh tidings of comfort and joy

 

 

DECK THE HALLS

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,
Sing the ancient Yuletide carol,
Fa la la la la, la la la la.

WE THREE KINGS

 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 rein

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

 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

IN THE STILLNESS OF THE NIGHT

In the stillness of the night, somewhere a baby cries;

In the stillness of the night, a child is born

In a stable cold and dark

And in a manger laid

Bringing hope to all the world

In the stillness of the night

 

In the stillness of the night, the shepherds tend their sheep;

In the stillness of the night, when all is calm

Then the heavens blaze with light

They hear the angels sing

Bringing joy to all the world

In the stillness of the night

HAVE YOURSELF A VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS

Have yourself a merry little Christmas
Let your heart be light
Next year all our troubles will be out of sight

Have yourself a merry little Christmas
Make the Yuletide gay
Next year all our troubles will be miles away

Once again as in olden days
Happy golden days of yore
Faithful friends who are dear to us
Will be near to us once more

 

Someday soon we all will be together,

If the fates allow

Until then, we’ll have to muddle through somehow

So have yourself a merry little Christmas now.

 

HERE COMES SANTA CLAUS

Here comes Santa Claus, Here comes Santa Claus right down Santa Claus Lane!
High in the sky you will see his reindeer are pulling on the rein
Bells are ringing, children singing, 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 is filled with toys for the girls and boys again

Hear those sleigh bells jingle,jangle; What a beautiful sight!

Jump in bed, cover up your head,

Cause Santa Claus comes to night!!!!

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

MR SANTA

Mr Santa, bring me some toys,

Bring Merry Christmas to all girls and boys

And every night I’ll go to sleep singing

And dream about the presents you’ll be bringing

Santa, promise me please

Give every reindeer a hug and a squeeze

I’ll be good as good can be

Mister Santa, don’t forget me!

RUDOLPH

 Rudolph the Red nosed Reindeer had a very shiny nose

And if you ever saw it, you would 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 mu sleigh tonight

Then how the reindeers loved him, as they shouted out with glee:

Rudolph the Red-nosed reindeer

You’ll go down in history

You’ll go down in history!!!!

 

 

JINGLE BELLS

Jingle bells, jingle bells,
Jingle all the way.
Oh! what fun it is to ride
In a one-horse open sleigh.

Dashing through the snow
In a one-horse open sleigh
O’er 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!

Jingle bells, jingle bells,
Jingle all the way.
Oh! what fun it is to ride
In a one-horse open sleigh.
WINTER WONDERLAND

Sleigh bells ring
Are you listening
In the lane
Snow is glistening
A beautiful sight
We’re happy tonight
Walking in a winter wonderland

Gone away is the bluebird
Here to stay is a new bird
He sings a love song
As we go along
Walking in a winter wonderland

 

In the meadow we can build a snowman
Then pretend that he is Parson Brown
He’ll say are you married?
We’ll say no man
But you can do the job
When you’re in town

Later on
We’ll conspire
As we dream by the fire
To face unafraid
The plans that we’ve made
Walking in a winter wonderland

THE FIRST NOEL

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 winter’s night that was so deep.

Chorus
Nowell, nowell, nowell, nowell.
Born is the King of Israel.

  1. They looked up and saw a star
    Shining the East, beyond them far,
    And to the earth it gave great light,
    And so it continued, both day and night.

 

WHO WOULD IMAGINE A KING

Mommies and daddies always believe
That their little angels are special indeed
And you could grow up to be anything
But who would imagine a king

A shepherd or teacher is what you could be
Or maybe a fisherman out on the sea
Or maybe a carpenter building things
But who would imagine a king

It was so clear when the wise men arrived
And the angels were singing your name
That the world would be different ’cause you were alive
That’s what heaven stood still to proclaim

One day an angel said quietly
That soon he would bring something special to me
And of all those wonderful gifts he could bring

Who would imagine, who could imagine
Who would imagine a king

POLAR EXPRESS – BELIEVE

Children sleeping
Snow is softly falling
Dreams are calling
Likes bells in the distance

We were dreamers
Not so long ago
But one by one
We all had to grow up

 

When it seems the magic slipped away
We find it all again on Christmas Day

Believe in what your heart is saying
Hear the melody that’s playing
There’s no time to waste
There’s so much to celebrate

Believe in what you feel inside
And give your dreams the wings to fly
You have everything you need
If you just believe

 

Trains move quickly
To their journey’s end
Destinations
Are where we begin again

Ships go sailing
Far across the sea
Trusting starlight
To get where they need to be

 

When it seems that we have lost our way
We find ourselves again on Christmas Day

Believe in what your heart is saying
Hear the melody that’s playing
There’s no time to waste
There’s so much to celebrate

Believe in what you feel inside
And give your dreams the wings to fly
You have everything you need
If you just believe

 

SANTA CLAUS IS COMIN TO TOWN

You better watch out, you better not cry
Better not pout, I’m telling you why
Santa Claus is comin’ to town
He’s making a list and checking it twice
Gonna find out who’s naughty and nice
Santa Claus is comin’ to town
He sees you when you’re sleepin’
He knows when you’re a wake
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 comin’ to town
