The Huron Carol

'Twas in the moon of Winter-Time
When all the birds had fled.
That might Gitchi Manitou
Sent angel choirs instead;
Before their light the stars grew dim,
And wandering hunter heard the hymn;
"Jesus your king is born, Jesus is born,
In excelsis gloria."

Within a lodge of broken bark
The tender Babe was found,
A ragged robe of rabbit skin
Enwrapp'd His beauty round;
But as the hunter braves drew nigh,
The angel song rang loud and high...
Refrain

O Children of the forest free,
O sons of Manitou,
The Holy Child of earth and heaven
Is born today for you.
Come kneel before the radiant Boy
Who brings you beauty, peace and joy. Refrain

HAVE A HOLLY JOLLY CHRISTMAS
It's the best time of the year
I don't know if there'll be snow,
But have a cup of cheer.
Have a Holly, Jolly Christmas;
And when you walk down the street
Say Hello to friends you know
And everyone you meet.

Oh, Ho, the mistletoe
Hung where you can see;
Somebody waits for you;
Kiss her once for me.
Have a Holly, Jolly Christmas,
and in case you didn't hear,
Oh by Golly, have a Holly,
Jolly Christmas this Year.

Johnny Marks (c) 1962

Here We Come A Wassailing
Here we come a-wassailing among the leaves so green;
Here we come a-wandering, so fair to be seen.
Love and Joy come to you, and to you our wassail, too.
And God Bless you and send you a Happy New Year
And God Bless you and send you a Happy New Year

We are not daily beggars that beg from door to door;
But we are neighbour's children whom you have seen before.
Love and Joy come to you and to you our wassail, too.
And God Bless you and send you a Happy New Year
And God Bless you and send you a Happy New Year

We have alittle purse made of ratching leather skin;
We want a little sixpence to line it well within.
Love and Joy come to you, and to you our wassail, too.
And God Bless you and send you a Happy New Year
And God Bless you and send you a Happy New Year

God Bless the master of this house, likewise the mistress, too;
And all the little children that round the table go
Love and Joy come to you, and to you our wassail, too.
And God Bless you and send you a Happy New Year
And God Bless you and send you a Happy New Year

Here Comes Santa Claus

Here comes Santa Claus!
Here comes Santa Claus!
Right down Santa Claus Lane!
Vixen and Blitzen and all his reindeer
Are pulling on the reins.
Bells are ringing, Children singing,
All is Merry and Bright.
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 boys and girls again.
Hear those sleigh bells Jingle Jangle,
What a beautiful sight.
Jump in bed, cover up your head
'Cause Santa Claus comes tonight.

Gene Autry, Oakley Haldeman (c) 1947

HAVE YOURSELF A MERRY LITTLE CHRISTMAS

Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas,
Let your heart be light
From now on, our troubles will be out of sight
Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas,
Make the Yule-tide gay,
From now on, our troubles will be miles away.

Here we are as in olden days,
Happy Golden days of Yore.
Faithful Friends who are dear to Us
Gather near to us once more.

Through the years we all will be together
If the Fates allow
Hang a shining star upon the highest bough.
And Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas Now.

from the film Meet Me In St. Louis
Hugh Martin, Ralph Blane 1943

Hark The Herald Angels Sing

Hark the Herald angels sing,
"Glory to the new born King'!
Peace on Earth, and mercy Mild,
God and sinners reconciled".
Joyful, all ye nations rise,
Join the triumph of the skies;
With th'angelic host proclaim,
"Christ is born in Bethlehem."
Hark the Herald angels sing,
Glory to the newborn King!

Christ, by highest heav'n adored:
Christ the everlasting lord;
Late in time behold him come,
Offspring of the favored one.
Veiled in flesh, the Godhead see;
Hail th'incarnate Deity
Pleased, as man with men to dwell
Jesus, our Immanuel!
Hark the Herald angels sing,
"Glory to the newborn King."

Hail! the heav'n born Prince of Peace!
Hail! the Son of Righteousness!
Light and life to all he brings,
Ris'n with healing in his wings.
Mild he lays his glory by,
Born that man no more may die;
Born to raise the sons of earth,
Hark the Herald angels sing,
"Glory to the newborn King!"

Hark How The Bells

Hark how the Bells,
sweet silver bells,
all seem to say,
throw cares away

Christ is here,
bringing good cheer,
to young and old,
meek and the bold,

ding dong ding
that is their song
with Joyful ring
all caroling

one seems to hear
words of good cheer
from everywhere
filling the air

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 they send,
on without end,
their Joyful tone to every home
Dong Ding Dong Ding, Dong Bong

HAPPY HOLIDAY

Happy Holiday
Happy Holiday, Happy Holiday,
While the Merry Bells keep ringing
May your ev'ry wish come true

Happy Holiday, Happy Holiday
May the calendar keep bringing
Happy Holidays to You

Come to Holiday Inn
If you're burdened down with trouble
If your nerves are wearing thing
Park your load down the road
And come to Holiday Inn

If the traffic noise affects you
Like a squeaky violin
Kick your cares down the stairs
And come to Holiday Inn

If you can't find someone who
Would set your heart-a-whirl
Take your car and motor to
The home of boy meets girl

If you're laid-up with a breakdown
Throw away your vitamin
Don't get worse, grab your nurse
And come to Holiday Inn
