Jolly old St. Nicholas, Lean your ear this way
Don't you tell a single soul, What I'm going to say
Christmas Eve is coming soon, Now you dear old man
Whisper why your heart's so big, Tell me if you can
Jolly Old Saint Nicholas
When the clock is striking twelve, When I'm fast asleep
Down the chimney broad and black, With your pack you'll creep
All the stockings you will find, Hanging in a row
Mine will be the brightest one, You'll be sure to know
Jolly Old Saint Nicholas
Johnny wants a pair of skates, Susy wants a doll
Nellie wants a story book, She don't like dolls at all
As for me, my little brain isn't very bright
Choose for me, old Santa Claus, What you think is right.
Jolly Old Saint Nicholas
Sliding down the chimney sweep
Only good things does he bring
Riding on his reindeer sleigh
Rodolph's nose will lead the way
Jolly Old Saint Nicholas

Let It Snow

Oh, the weather outside is frightful
But the fire is so delightful
And since we've no place to go
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow
It doesn't show signs of stopping
And I brought some corn for popping
The lights are turned way down low
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow
When we finally kiss good-night
How I'll hate going out in the storm
But if you really hold me tight
All the way home I'll be warm
The fire is slowly dying
And, my dear, we're still good-bye-ing
But as long as you love me so
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow
When we finally kiss good-night
How I'll hate going out in the storm
But if you really hold me tight
All the way home I'll be warm
The fire is slowly dying
And, my dear, we're still good-bye-ing
But as long as you love me so
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow
Let it snow, let it snow
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow
Let it snow, let it snow
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow

The Christmas Song
03:11

Chestnuts roasting on an open fire,
Jack Frost nipping on your nose,
Yuletide carols being sung by a choir,
And folks dressed up like Eskimos.
Everybody knows a turkey and some mistletoe,
Help to make the season bright.
Tiny tots with their eyes all aglow,
Will find it hard to sleep tonight.
They know Santa's on his way
He's got only fun and good things on his sleigh.
And every mother's child is going to spy,
To see if reindeer really know how to fly.
And so I'm offering this simple phrase,
To kids from one to ninety-two,
Although it’s been said many times, many ways,
Merry Christmas to you

Jingle Bells
03:03

Dashing through the snow
In a one-horse open sleigh
Over the hills we go
Laughing all the way
Bells on bobtail ring
Making spirits bright
Oh what fun to ride and sing
A sleighing song tonight
Something’s in the air, you know that it’s that time of year
Lets go out and play it’s time to jingle all the way
Jingle bells, jingle bells
Jingle all the way
Oh what fun it is to ride in a one horse open sleigh
A day or two ago
The story I must tell
I went out on the snow
And on my back I fell
A Girl was riding by
In a one-horse open sleigh
She laughed as there I sprawling lie
But quickly drove away
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 this sleighing song
Just get bobtailed bay
Two forty is your speed
Hitch it to an open sleigh
And crack! You'll take the lead
Jingle bells, jingle bells
Jingle all the way
Oh what fun it is to ride in a one horse open sleigh

I heard the bells on Christmas day
The old familiar carols play
Wild and sweet the words repeat
Of peace
I thought as now this day had come,
Beliefs we had were far from wrong
but rolled along the broken song
Of peace
Peace, peace on earth
Peace, peace on earth
And in despair I bowed my head
There is no peace on earth I said
For hate is strong and mocks the song
Of peace
Till, ringing singing, on its way
The world revolved from night to day
A voice a chime a chant sublime
Of peace
Peace, peace on earth
Peace, peace on earth
Then pealed the bells more loud and deep
Arisen from my waking sleep
Ringing loud above the clouds
The one thing that will save us now
Is peace
