Carols in the Garden

1. Hark The Herald Angels Sing

Whoa-oh-oh x3

Hark the herald angels sing

"Glory to the newborn King!

Peace on earth and mercy mild

God and sinners reconciled"

Joyful, all ye nations rise

Join the triumph of the skies

With the angelic host proclaim:

"Christ is born in Bethlehem"

Hark! The herald angels sing

"Glory to the newborn King!"

Whoa-oh-oh x3

Christ by highest heav'n adored

Christ the everlasting Lord!

Late in time behold Him come

Offspring of a Virgin's womb

Mild He lays His glory by

Born that man no more may die

Born to raise the sons of earth

Born to give them second birth

Hark! The herald angels sing

"Glory to the newborn King!"

O come all ye faithful

Joyful and triumphant

O come ye, o come ye to Bethlehem

Come and behold Him

Born the King of Angels

O come, let us adore Him x3

Christ the Lord

5. Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas

Have yourself a merry little Christmas

Let your heart be light

Next year all our troubles will be out of sight

Have yourself a merry little Christmas

Make the Yuletide gay

Next year all our troubles will be miles away

Once again, as in olden days

Happy golden days of yore

Faithful friends who are dear to us

Will be near to us once more

Someday soon, we all will be together

If the fates allow

Until then, we'll have to muddle through somehow

So have yourself a merry little Christmas now

6. Frosty The Snowman

Frosty the Snowman

Was a jolly happy soul

With a corncob pipe and a button nose

And two eyes made out of coal

Frosty the Snowman

Is a fairytale, 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 Snowman

Was alive as he could be

And the children say

He could laugh and play

Just the same as you and me

Frosty, clumsy as he can be

See him lopping along

Off he goes on an icicle spree

With a happy song

Oh, Frosty the Snowman

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

Runnin' here and there

All around the square

Sayin', "Catch me if you can"

He led them down the streets of town

Right to the traffic cop

And he only paused a moment

When he heard him holler, "Stop!"

Hmm, Frosty the Snowman

Had to hurry on his way

But he waved goodbye, sayin' "Don't you cry

I'll be back again some day"

Thumpety, thump thump, thumpety, thump thump

Look at Frosty go!

Thumpety, thump thump, thumpety, thump thump

Over the hills of snow!

7. Last Christmas

(Chorus)

Last Christmas, I gave you my heart

But the very next day, you gave it away

This year, to save me from tears

I'll give it to someone special

(Verse 1)

Once bitten and twice shy

I keep my distance, but you still catch my eye

Tell me, baby, do you recognise me?

Well, it's been a year, it doesn't surprise me

"Happy Christmas," I wrapped it up and sent it

With a note saying, "I love you," I meant it

Now I know what a fool I've been

But if you kissed me now, I know you'd fool me again

(Chorus)

(Verse 2)

A crowded room, friends with tired eyes

I'm hiding from you and your soul of ice

My God, I thought you were someone to rely on

Me? I guess I was a shoulder to cry on

A face-on lover with a fire in his heart

A man undercover, but you tore me apart

Ooh-ooh

Now I've found a real love, you'll never fool me again

(Chorus)

(Verse 3)

A face-on lover with a fire in his heart (I gave you my heart)

A man undercover, but you tore him apart

Maybe next year

I'll give it to someone, I'll give it to someone special

(Chorus)

8. All I Want For Christmas Is You

I don't want a lot for Christmas

There is just one thing I need

I don't care about the presents

Underneath the Christmas tree

I just want you for my own

More than you could ever know

Make my wish come true

All I want for Christmas is you, yeah

I don't want a lot for Christmas

There is just one thing I need

And I don't care about the presents

Underneath the Christmas tree

I don't need to hang my stocking

There upon the fireplace

Santa Claus won't make me happy

With a toy on Christmas Day

I just want you for my own

More than you could ever know

Make my wish come true

All I want for Christmas is you

You, baby

Oh, I won't ask for much this Christmas

I won't even wish for snow

And I'm just gonna keep on waiting

Underneath the mistletoe

I won't make a list and send it

To the North Pole for Saint Nick

I won't even stay awake to

Hear those magic reindeer click

'Cause I just want you here tonight

Holding on to me so tight

What more can I do?

Baby, all I want for Christmas is you

You, baby

Oh, all the lights are shining so brightly everywhere

And the sound of children's laughter fills the air

And everyone is singing

I hear those sleigh bells ringing

Santa, won't you bring me the one I really need?

Won't you please bring my baby to me?

Oh, I don't want a lot for Christmas

This is all I'm asking for

I just wanna see my baby

Standing right outside my door

Oh, I just want you for my own

More than you could ever know

Make my wish come true

Baby, all I want for Christmas is you

You, baby

9. Aussie Jingle Bells

Dashing Through the bush

In a rusty Holden Ute

Kicking up the dust

Kelpie (cattle dog) by my side

Singing Christmas songs

It's summer time and I am in my singlet,

The time comes round to go

We take a family snap (photo)

Then pack the car and all shoot through (go home)

Before the washing up.

10. 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

Silent night, holy night

Shepherds quake at the sight

Glories stream from heaven afar

Heavenly hosts sing Alleluia

Radiant beams from Thy holy face

With the dawn of redeeming grace

Jesus Lord, at Thy birth

Jesus Lord, at Thy birth

11. White Christmas

I'm dreaming of a white Christmas

Just like the ones I used to know

Where the tree tops glisten

And children listen

To hear sleigh bells in the snow, oh, the snow

I said, I'm dreaming of a white Christmas

With every Christmas card I write

May your days be merry and bright

And may all your Christmas' be white

(Let's go, sticks, let's go)

I said, I'm dreaming of a white, oh, Christmas

May your days, may your days, may your days

Be merry and bright

And may all your Christmas' be white

(Come on now, woo)

I'm dreaming of a white Christmas

With every Christmas card I write

May your days be merry and bright

And may all your Christmas' be white

12. Jingle Bell Rock

Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock

Jingle bells swing and jingle bells ring

Snowin' and blowin' up bushels of fun

Now the jingle hop has begun

Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock

Jingle bells chime in jingle bell time

Dancin' and prancin' in Jingle Bell Square

In the frosty air

What a bright time, it's the right time

To rock the night away

Jingle bell time is a swell time

To go glidin' in a one-horse sleigh

Giddy-up jingle horse, pick up your feet

Jingle around the clock

Mix and a-mingle in the jinglin' feet

That's the jingle bell rock

Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock

Jingle bells chime in jingle bell time

Dancin' and prancin' in Jingle Bell Square

In the frosty air

What a bright time, it's the right time

To rock the night away

To go glidin' in a one-horse sleigh

Giddy-up jingle horse, pick up your feet

Jingle around the clock

13. Santa Claus Is Coming To Town

You better watch out,

You better not cry,

Better not pout,

I'm telling you why:

Santa Claus is comin' to town.

He's making a list

And checking it twice,

Gonna find out 

Who's naughty and nice.

Santa Claus is comin' to town.

He sees you when you're sleepin',

He knows when you're awake,

he knows if you've been bad or good,

So be good for goodness sake.

You better watch out, 

You better not cry,

Better not pout,

I'm telling you why:

Santa Claus is comin' to town.

15. The First Noel

The First Noel the angel did say

Was to certain poor shepherds in fields as they lay;

In fields as they lay, keeping their sheep,

On a cold winter's night that was so deep.

Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel,

Born is the King of Israel.

They looked up and saw a star

Shining in the east beyond them far,

And to the earth it gave great light,

And so it continued both day and night.

Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel,

Born is the King of Israel.

And by the light of that same star

Three wise men came from country far;

To seek for a king was their intent,

And to follow the star wherever it went.

Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel,

Born is the King of Israel.

This star drew nigh to the northwest,

O’er Bethlehem it took it rest,

And there it did both stop and stay

Right over the place where Jesus lay.

Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel,

Born is the King of Israel.

Then entered in those Wise men three

Full reverently upon their knee

And offered there in His presence

Their gold and myrrh and frankincense.

Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel,

Born is the King of Israel.

Then let us all with one accord

Sing praises to our heavenly Lord

That hath made Heaven and earth of nought

And with his blood mankind has bought.

Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel,

Born is the King of Israel.

16. Jingle Bells

Dashing through the snow

In a one-horse open sleigh

O'er the fields we go

Laughing all the way

Bells on bobtails ring

Making spirits bright

What fun it is to ride 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, hey!

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

Sing this sleighing song

Get a bobtailed bay

Two forty for his speed

And hitch him to an open sleigh

And you will take the lead

Oh, jingle bells, jingle bells

Jingle all the way

Oh, what fun it is to ride

In a one-horse open sleigh, hey!

Jingle bells, jingle bells

Jingle all the way

Oh, what fun it is to ride

In a one-horse open sleigh

Oh, what fun it is to ride In one horse open sleigh!



17. Rockin' Around The Christmas Tree

Rockin' around the Christmas tree

At the Christmas party hop

Mistletoe hung where you can see

Every couple tries to stop

Rockin' around the Christmas tree

Let the Christmas spirit ring

Later we'll have some pumpkin pie

And we'll do some caroling

You will get a sentimental feeling when you hear

Voices singing, let's be jolly

Deck the halls with boughs of holly

Rockin' around the Christmas tree

Have a happy holiday

Everyone dancin' merrily

In the new old-fashioned way

You will get a sentimental feeling when you hear

Voices singing, let's be jolly

Deck the halls with boughs of holly

Rockin' around the Christmas tree

Have a happy holiday

Everyone dancin' merrily

In the new old-fashioned way

18. Rudolph The Red Nosed Reindeer

You know Dasher and Dancer and Prancer and Vixen

Comet and Cupid and 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 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"

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 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"



19. Christmas Is All Around Me

I feel it in my fingers

I feel it in my toes

Christmas is all around me

And so the feeling grows

It's written in the wind

It's everywhere I go

So if you really love Christmas

Come on and let it snow

You know I love Christmas

I always will

My mind's made up

The way that I feel

There's no beginning

There'll be no end

'Cause on Christmas

You can depend

You gave your presents to me

And I gave mine to you (I gave mine to you)

I need Santa beside me

In everything I do (ah, ah, ah-ah)

You know I love Christmas

I always will

My mind's made up

The way that I feel

There's no beginning

There'll be no end

'Cause on Christmas

(You can depend) you can depend

It's written on the wind

It's everywhere I go

So if you really love me

Come on and let it show

Come on and let it show

So if you really love (you know I love you)

Come on and let it

If you really love me (you know I love you)

Come on and let it

Now if you really love me

Come on and let it show

20. Winter Wonderland

Sleigh bells ring, are you listening,

In the lane, snow is glistening

A beautiful sight,

We're happy tonight,

Walking in a winter wonderland.

Gone away is the bluebird,

Here to stay is a new bird

He sings a love song,

As we go along,

Walking in a winter wonderland.

In the meadow we can build a snowman,

Then pretend that he is Parson Brown

He'll say: Are you married?

We'll say: No man,

But you can do the job

When you're in town.

Later on, we'll conspire,

As we dream by the fire

To face unafraid,

The plans that we've made,

Walking in a winter wonderland.

In the meadow we can build a snowman,

And pretend that he's a circus clown

We'll have lots of fun with mister snowman,

Until the other kiddies knock him down.

When it snows, ain't it thrilling,

Though your nose gets a chilling

We'll frolic and play, the Eskimo way,

Walking in a winter wonderland.

Walking in a winter wonderland,

Walking in a winter wonderland.



21. Happy Christmas (War Is Over)

So this is Christmas

And what have you done

Another year over

And a new one just begun

And so this is Christmas

I hope you have fun

The near and the dear one

The old and the young

A very Merry Christmas

And a happy New Year

Let's hope it's a good one

Without any fear

And so this is Christmas (war is over)

For weak and for strong (if you want it)

For rich and the poor ones (war is over)

The road is so long (now)

And so happy Christmas (war is over)

For black and for white (if you want it)

For yellow and red ones (war is over)

Let's stop all the fight (now)

A very Merry Christmas

And a happy New Year

Let's hope it's a good one

Without any fear

War is over, if you want it

War is over now

Happy Christmas!

22. I Saw Mummy Kissing Santa Claus

I saw Mommy kissing Santa Claus (kissing, kissing Santa Claus)

Underneath the mistletoe last night

She didn't see me creep

Down the stairs to have a peep

She thought that I was tucked up

In my bedroom, fast asleep

Then I saw Mommy tickle Santa Claus (tickle, tickle, Santa Claus)

Underneath his beard so snowy white

Oh, what a laugh it would have been

If daddy had only seen

Mommy kissing Santa Claus last night

He saw Mommy kissing (kissing, kissing) Santa Claus

I did! I really did see Mommy kissing Santa Claus

And I'm gonna tell my dad

Then I saw Mommy tickle Santa Claus (tickle, tickle Santa Claus)

Underneath his beard so snowy white

Oh, what a laugh it would have been

If daddy had only seen

Mommy kissing Santa Claus last night

Oh, what a laugh it would have been

If daddy had only seen

Mommy kissing Santa Claus last night



23. 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've bought some corn for popping

The lights are turned way down low

Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow

When we finally kiss goodnight

How you'll hate going out in the storm

But if you really hold me tight

All the way home you'll be warm

The fire is slowly dying

And, dear, we're still goodbying

But as long as you love me so

Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow

But if you really hold me tight

All the way home you'll be warm

The fire is slowly dying

And, dear, we're still goodbying

But as long as you love me so

Let it snow, let it snow

24. Santa Baby

Santa baby, just slip a Sable under the tree for me

Been an awful good girl

Santa baby, so hurry down the chimney tonight

Santa baby, a '54 convertible too, light blue

I'll wait up for you, dear

Santa baby, so hurry down the chimney tonight

Think of all the fun I've missed

Think of all the fella's that I haven't kissed

Next year I could be just as good

If you check off my Christmas list

Santa baby, I want a yacht and really that's not a lot

Been an angel all year

Santa baby, so hurry down the chimney tonight

Santa honey, one little thing I really need

The deed to a platinum mine

Santa baby, so hurry down the chimney tonight

Santa cutie, and fill my stocking with the duplex and checks

Sign your 'x' on the line

Santa cutie, and hurry down the chimney tonight

Come and trim my Christmas tree

With some decorations bought at Tiffany's

I really do believe in you

Let's see if you believe in me

Santa baby, forgot to mention one little thing

A ring, I don't mean on the phone

Santa baby, so hurry down the chimney tonight

Hurry down the chimney tonight

Hurry, tonight



25. When A Child Is Born

A ray of hope flickers in the sky

A tiny star lights up way up high

All across the land, dawns a brand new morn

This comes to pass when a child is born

A silent wish sails the seven seas

The winds of change whisper in the trees

And the walls of doubt crumble, tossed and torn

This comes to pass when a child is born

A rosy hue settles all around

You've got to feel you're on solid ground

For a spell or two, no one seems forlorn

This comes to pass when a child is born

And all of this happens because the world is waiting

Waiting for one child

Black, white, yellow, no one knows

But a child that will grow up and turn tears to laughter

Hate to love, war to peace and everyone to everyone's neighbour

And misery and suffering will be words to be forgotten forever

It's all a dream, an illusion now

It must come true, sometime soon somehow

All across the land, dawns a brand new morn

This comes to pass when a child is born

26. 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 You, Lord Jesus

Look down from the sky

And stay by my side

Until morning is nigh

Be near me, Lord Jesus

I ask You to stay

Close by me forever

And love me I pray

Bless all the dear children

In Your tender care

And fit us for heaven

To live with You there



27. It's Beginning To Look A Lot Like Christmas

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas

Everywhere you go

Take a look at the five and ten, it's glistening once again

With candy canes and silver lanes that glow

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas

Toys in every store

But the prettiest sight to see is the holly that will be

On your own front door

A pair of Hopalong boots and a pistol that shoots

Is the wish of Barney and Ben

Dolls that'll talk and will go for a walk

Is the hope of Janice and Jen

And Mom and Dad can hardly wait for school to start again

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas

Everywhere you go

There's a tree in the Grand Hotel, one in the park as well

It's the sturdy kind that doesn't mind the snow

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas

Soon the bells will start

And the thing that'll make 'em ring is the carol that you sing

Right within your heart

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas

Toys in every store

But the prettiest sight to see is the holly that will be

On your own front door

Sure, it's Christmas once more
