Pat-a-Pan!
Willie, bring your little drum;
Robin, bring your flute and come;
And be merry while you play,
Tu-re-lu-re-lu,
Pat-a-pat-a-pan,
Come be merry while you play,
On this joyous Holiday!
When the men of olden days
To the King of Kings gave praise,
On the fife and drum did play,
Tu-re-lu-re-lu,
Pat-a-pat-a-pan,
On the fife and drum did play,
So their hearts were glad and gay!
God and man today become
More in tune than fife and drum,
So be merry while you play,
Tu-re-lu-re-lu,
Pat-a-pat-a-pan,
So be merry while you play,
Sing and dance this Christmas Day!
It Came Upon a Midnight Clear
Preliminary
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 heaven’s all gracious king
The world in solemn stillness lay
To hear the angels singstill through the cloven skies they comeWith peaceful wings unfurled
And still their heavenly music floatsO’er all the weary world
Above its sad and lowly plainsThey bend on hovering wing
And ever o’er its Babel soundsThe blessed angels singall ye, beneath life’s crushing loadWhose forms are bending low
Who toil along the climbing wayWith painful steps and slow
Look, now for glad and golden hoursCome swiftly on the wing
O rest beside the weary road
And hear the angels sing
Deck the Hall
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…
Strike the harp and join the chorus, Fa la la…
Follow me in merry measure, Fa la la…
While I tell of Yuletide treasure, Fa la la…
Fast away, the old year passes, Fa la la…
Hail the new, ye lads and lasses, Fa la la…
Sing we joyous all together, Fa la la…
Heedless of the wind and weather, Fa la la…
Away in a Manger
Preliminary
Away in a manger, no crib for His bed
The little Lord Jesus, lay down His sweet headThe stars in the sky, look down where He lay
The little Lord Jesus, asleep on the hayThe cattle are lowing, the poor Baby wakes
But little Lord Jesus, no crying He makesI love Thee, Lord Jesus, look down from the sky
And stay by my side, ’til morning is nighBe near me, Lord Jesus, I ask Thee to stay
Close by me forever, and love me, I prayBless all the dear children, in Thy tender care
And take us to Heaven, To live with Thee there
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
Silent night, holy night!
Shepherds quake at the sight!
Glories stream from heaven afar;
Heavenly hosts sing Al-le-lu-ia!
Christ the Savior is born!
Christ the Savior is born!
Silent night, holy night
Son of God, oh, love’s pure light
Radiant beams from Thy holy face
With the dawn of redeeming grace
Jesus, Lord at Thy birth
Jesus, Lord at Thy birth
Jingle Bells
Dashing through the snow
In a one horse open sleigh
Over the fields we go
laughing all the way
Bells on bob tail ring,
making spirits bright
What fun it is to laugh and sing
A sleighing song tonight
Oh, jingle bells, jingle bells
Jingle all the way
Oh, what fun it is to ride
In a one horse open sleigh
Jingle bells, jingle bells
Jingle all the way
Oh, what fun it is to ride
In a one horse open sleigh
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!
E’en so here below, below,
Let steeple bells be swungen,
And “Io, io, io!”
By priest and people sungen
Gloria Hosanna in excelsis!
Pray you, dutifully prime
Your matin chime, ye ringers,
May you beautifully rhyme
Your eve’time song, ye singers
Gloria Hosanna in excelsis!
Joy to the World
Joy to the world, the Lord is come
Let earth receive her King
Let every heart prepare Him room
And Heaven and nature sing
And Heaven and nature sing
And Heaven, and Heaven, and nature sing
Joy to the world, the Savior reigns
Let men their songs employ
While fields and floods, rocks, hills, and plains
Repeat the sounding joy, repeat the sounding joy
Repeat, repeat the sounding joy
No more let sins and sorrows grow
Nor thorns infest the ground
He comes to make His blessings flow
Far as the curse is found, far as the curse is found
Far as, far as the curse is found
He rules the world with truth and grace
And makes the nations prove
The glories of His righteousness
And wonders of His love, and wonders of His love
And wonders, wonders of His love
We Three Kings of Orient Are
We three kings of Orient are
Bearing gifts we traverse afar
Field and fountain, moor and mountain
Following yonder star
Oh, 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 reign
Oh, star of wonder…
Frankincense to offer have I,
Incense owns a Deity nigh
Prayer and praising
all men raising
Worship him God on high
oh, star of wonder…
Myrrh is mine, it’s bitter perfume
Breaths a life of gathering gloom
Sorrowing, sighing, bleeding dying
Sealed in the stone-cold tomb
Oh, star of wonder…
Glorious now behold Him arise,
King, and God, and sacrifice,
Heav’n sing Hallelujah
Hallelujah the earth replies
Oh, star of wonder
