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 would 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! Jingle Bells 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! REFRAIN: Jingle Bells! Jingle Bells! Jingle all the way! Oh, what fun it is to ride In a one-horse open sleigh! Now the ground is white Go it while you're young, Take the girls tonight And sing the sleighing song; Just get a bobtailed bay Two-forty as his speed Hitch him to an open sleigh And crack! you'll take the lead. Deck the Halls Deck the halls 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 Yuletide carol, Fa la la la la, la la la la. 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 Yuletide treasure, Fa la la la la, la la la la. 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. Frosty the Snowman Frosty the Snow Man was a jolly, happy soul, With a corncob pipe and a button nose and two eyes made out of coal. Frosty the Snow Man 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. Oh, Frosty the Snow Man was alive as he could be, And the children say he could laugh and play just the same as you and me. Frosty the Snow Man 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, sayin’, “Catch me if you can.” He led them down the streets of town right to a 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 good-bye, sayin’, “Don't you cry; I'll be back again someday.” Thumpety thump thump, thumpety thump thump, Look at Frosty go; Thumpety thump thump, thumpety thump thump, Over the hills of snow. 1 2 3 5 SEASON'S GREETINGS AND BEST WISHES (extra Carol Sheets available at The Citizen) Away in a Manger Away in a manger, no crib for a bed; The little Lord Jesus laid down His sweet head; The stars in the bright sky looked down where he lay, The little Lord Jesus, asleep on the hay. The cattle are lowing, the baby awakes, But little Lord Jesus no crying He makes; I love Thee, Lord Jesus; look down from the sky, And stay by my side until morning is nigh. Be near me, Lord Jesus, I ask Thee to stay Close by me forever, and love me, I pray; Bless all the dear children in Thy tender care, And fit us for heaven to live with Thee there. 4 Kraemer Concrete Ltd. 519-887-8763 Blyth Community Church of God 519-523-4590 Blyth Corner Café 519-523-9590 Beuermann Construction 519-887-8246 Blyth United Church 519-523-4224 Blyth Christian Reformed Church 519-523-9233 The Citizen 519-523-4792/519-887-9114 Howson & Howson Ltd. 519-523-9624/1-800-663-3653 Bob Wattam's Backhoe Service 519-357-3069 Brussels Mennonite Fellowship 519-887-6388 THE CITIZEN, THURSDAY, DECEMBER 4, 2008.
