Its The Most Wonderful Time Of The Year
It's the most wonderful time of the year.
With the kids jingle belling,
And everyone telling you,
"Be of good cheer,"
It's the most wonderful time of the year.
There'll be parties for hosting,
Marshmallows for toasting and
Caroling out in the snow.
There'll be scary ghost stories and
Tales of the glories of Christmases
Long, long ago.
It's the most wonderful time of the year.
There'll be much mistletoeing
And hearts will be glowing,
When loved ones are near.
It's the most wonderful time of the year.
With the kids jingle belling,
And everyone telling you,
"Be of good cheer,"
It's the most wonderful time of the year.
There'll be parties for hosting,
Marshmallows for toasting and
Caroling out in the snow.
There'll be scary ghost stories and
Tales of the glories of Christmases
Long, long ago.
It's the most wonderful time of the year.
There'll be much mistletoeing
And hearts will be glowing,
When loved ones are near.
It's the most wonderful time of the year.

Happy Holiday / Holiday Season
Happy holiday
Happy holiday
While the merry bells keep ringing
May your every wish come true
Happy holiday
Happy holiday
May the calendar keep bringing
Happy holidays to you
It's the holiday season
And Santa Claus is coming back
The Christmas snow is white on the ground
When old Santa gets into town
He'll be coming down the chimney, down
Coming down the chimney, down
It's the holiday season
And Santa Claus has got a toy
For every good girl and good little boy
He's a great big bundle of joy
He'll be coming down the chimney, down
Coming down the chimney, down
He'll have a big fat pack upon his back
And lots of goodies for you and me
So leave a peppermint stick for old St. Nick
Hanging on the Christmas tree
It's the holiday season
With the whoop-de-do and hickory dock
And don't forget to hang up your sock
'Cause just exactly at 12 o'clock
He'll be coming down the chimney
Coming down the chimney
Coming down the chimney, down!
Happy holiday
Happy holiday
While the merry bells keep bringing
Happy holidays to you

Christmas Time Is Here
(feat. Vince Gill)
Christmas time is here
Happiness and cheer
Fun for all
That children call
Their favorite time of year
Snowflakes in the air
Carols everywhere
Olden times
And ancient rhymes
Of love and dreams to share
Sleigh bells in the air
Beauty everywhere
Yuletide by the fireside
And joyful memories there
Christmas time is here
Families growing near
Oh that we could always see
Such spirit through the year
Sleigh bells in the air
Beauty everywhere
Yuletide by the fireside
And joyful memories there
Christmas time is here
Families growing near
Oh that we could always see
Such spirit through the year
Christmas time is here
Happiness and cheer
Fun for all
That children call
Their favorite time of year
Snowflakes in the air
Carols everywhere
Olden times
And ancient rhymes
Of love and dreams to share
Sleigh bells in the air
Beauty everywhere
Yuletide by the fireside
And joyful memories there
Christmas time is here
Families growing near
Oh that we could always see
Such spirit through the year
Sleigh bells in the air
Beauty everywhere
Yuletide by the fireside
And joyful memories there
Christmas time is here
Families growing near
Oh that we could always see
Such spirit through the year

White Christmas
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
Just like the ones I used to know
Where the treetops glisten
And children listen
To hear sleigh bells in the snow.
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
With every Christmas card I write
May your days be merry and bright
And may all your Christmases be white.
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
With every Christmas card I write
May your days be merry and bright
And may all your Christmases be white.
Just like the ones I used to know
Where the treetops glisten
And children listen
To hear sleigh bells in the snow.
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
With every Christmas card I write
May your days be merry and bright
And may all your Christmases be white.
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
With every Christmas card I write
May your days be merry and bright
And may all your Christmases be white.

Somewhere In My Memory
Candles in the window
Shadows painting the ceiling
Gazing at the fire glow
Feeling that gingerbread feeling
Precious moments, special people
Happy faces, I can see
Somewhere in my memory
Christmas joys all around me
Living in my memory
All of the music, all of the magic
All of the family, home here with me
Precious moments, special people
Happy faces, I can see
Somewhere in my memory
All of the music, all of the magic
All of the family, home here with me
Shadows painting the ceiling
Gazing at the fire glow
Feeling that gingerbread feeling
Precious moments, special people
Happy faces, I can see
Somewhere in my memory
Christmas joys all around me
Living in my memory
All of the music, all of the magic
All of the family, home here with me
Precious moments, special people
Happy faces, I can see
Somewhere in my memory
All of the music, all of the magic
All of the family, home here with me

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 Saviour is born!
Christ the Saviour is born!
Silent night, holy night!
Wondrous star, lend thy light!
With the angels let us sing
Alleluia to our King!
Christ the Saviour is here,
Jesus the Saviour is here!
Silent night, Holy night!
Son of God, 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.
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 Saviour is born!
Christ the Saviour is born!
Silent night, holy night!
Wondrous star, lend thy light!
With the angels let us sing
Alleluia to our King!
Christ the Saviour is here,
Jesus the Saviour is here!
Silent night, Holy night!
Son of God, 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.

Almost There
Mary full of innocence
Carrying the Holy Prince
You're almost there, you're almost there
Mother of the living Word
Trusting in the voice you heard
You're almost there, you're almost there
You're almost where the angels see
Redemption's plan unfolding
All hope is in the son you'll bear
You're almost there
A lonely road, a willing heart
Pray for strength to do your part
You're almost there, you're almost there
Trust the Father to provide
Bread of Heaven prophesied
You're almost there, you're almost there
You're almost where the waiting ends
Delivering the life within
The answered prayer, Emmanuel
You're almost there
You're almost where your journey ends
Where death will die and life begins
The answered prayer,Emmanuel
You're almost, almost there
You're almost where the waiting ends
Delivering the life within
The answered prayer, Emmanuel
You're almost there
You're almost where your journey ends
Where death will die and life begins
The answered prayer, Emmanuel
You're almost there
Carrying the Holy Prince
You're almost there, you're almost there

Trusting in the voice you heard
You're almost there, you're almost there
You're almost where the angels see

All hope is in the son you'll bear

A lonely road, a willing heart
Pray for strength to do your part

Christmas Day
Snow covered rooftops
Lights on the trees
The sound of singing
I hear down every street
Families have gathered
From miles away
Oh, Merry Christmas
Its Christmas day
You see that old tree
Down Cotton Lane
Those lights keep shining
Its always the same
We hear the church bells
Ring out to say
Oh, Merry Christmas
Its Christmas day
Oh, Merry Christmas
Its Christmas day
Swing the lights and hang the stockings
Decorate with green and red
Made the cookies for old Santa
Made a runway for his sled
Singing carols on a sleigh ride
Gather round the manger scene
Open presents, read the letter
And together we will sing
Oh, Merry Christmas
Joy to the world
For every nation
For every boy and girl
Lets light a candle
For peace we pray
Oh, Merry Christmas
It's Christmas day
Its Christmas day
Its Christmas day
Lets light a candle
For peace we pray
Oh, Merry Christmas
Its Christmas day
Oh, Merry Christmas
Its Christmas day
Lights on the trees
The sound of singing
I hear down every street
Families have gathered
From miles away
Oh, Merry Christmas
Its Christmas day
You see that old tree
Down Cotton Lane
Those lights keep shining
Its always the same
We hear the church bells
Ring out to say
Oh, Merry Christmas
Its Christmas day
Oh, Merry Christmas
Its Christmas day
Swing the lights and hang the stockings
Decorate with green and red
Made the cookies for old Santa
Made a runway for his sled
Singing carols on a sleigh ride
Gather round the manger scene
Open presents, read the letter
And together we will sing
Oh, Merry Christmas
Joy to the world
For every nation
For every boy and girl
Lets light a candle
For peace we pray
Oh, Merry Christmas

Its Christmas day
Its Christmas day
Lets light a candle
For peace we pray
Oh, Merry Christmas

Peace
I have come from so far away
Down the road of my own mistakes
In the hope you could hear me pray
Oh Lord, keep me in your reach
How I longed through these wasted years
To outrun all the pain and fear
Turned to stone from my un-cried tears
And now it's Your grace I seek
Love won't compromise
It's a gift, it's a sacrifice
My soul renewed and my heart released
In You I'll find my peace
Wondrous child of whom the angels sing
Know my joy, feel my suffering
Shining star make this love you bring
So bright that I may believe
That my way will not be lost
From now on til that river's crossed
My soul renewed and my spririt free
In you I'll find my peace
In You I'll find my peace
Down the road of my own mistakes
In the hope you could hear me pray
Oh Lord, keep me in your reach
How I longed through these wasted years
To outrun all the pain and fear
Turned to stone from my un-cried tears
And now it's Your grace I seek
Love won't compromise
It's a gift, it's a sacrifice
My soul renewed and my heart released
In You I'll find my peace
Wondrous child of whom the angels sing
Know my joy, feel my suffering
Shining star make this love you bring
So bright that I may believe
That my way will not be lost
From now on til that river's crossed
My soul renewed and my spririt free
In you I'll find my peace
In You I'll find my peace
