Rudolph the
Red-Nosed Reindeer
You know Dasher, and Dancer, Prancer and Vixen,
Comet, Cupid, Donner and Blitzen,
But do you recall
The most famous reindeer of all ...
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!
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.

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.

Away in a
Manger
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 he,
And the children say
he could laugh and play
just the same as you and me.
Frosty the Snov, Man
knew the sun was hot that day,
So he said, "Let's. run
anti 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.
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.
