Lyrics
CHORUS
It’s Christmas again, Christmas again
Spring then Summer, December and then
Christmas again, Christmas again
Peace be with you Christmas again
Season of hope, season of joy
A time to begin again
And strange may it be that one baby child
Is the reason that we together be (at)
CHORUS
Wise men who came in search of a king
Followed the Eastern star
And we too bring gifts for those that we love
Who may be near or who may be far
CHORUS
This child who was born on that first Christmas night
Grew up to be gentle and wise
And all round the world this time of year
People rejoice in the hope that comes
CHORUS (repeated)
ENDING
Peace be with you Christmas again
Down in the South Lullaby

Lyrics
Down in the South at Christmas time
Christmas time Christmas time – there's
Silent night by candlelight
The stars shine bright, such a perfect night
Little children sleepy heads`are yawning
Go to sleep now soon it will be morning
Jingle bells all is well
Nothing could be better
Gentle breeze Christmas trees
In the summer weather
But up in the North at Christmas time
Christmas time Christmas time
There’s rain and snow and cold winds blow
There’s mistletoe and fires glow (and)
Little children sleepy heads are yawning
Go to sleep now soon it will be morning
Jingle bells all is well
Nothing could be better
Morning light snow is white
In the winter weather
Mmm Mmm
Mmm Mmm
Silent night Holy night
All is calm All is bright
Wassail

Lyrics
Good health to you all over the town!
We dance and sing in street up and down.
We sing to your health, and dance with glee.
We dance and we sing 'round yon maple tree.
Instrumental
So here’s to Cherry and to his right cheek
God send his master a good piece of beef,
A good piece of beef then may we see.
We dance and we sing and good health to thee.
Instrumental
Come here, sweet maid in frilly white smock,
Come trip to the door and pull back the lock.
Come trip to the door go summon your kin.
We dance and we sing, so let us come in.
Instrumental
And we shall make a pudding for fun With cherries and raisins pineapple and crumbs
Flour and eggs and a teaspoon of spice
And a pinch of cinnamon would be nice
Instrumental
Good health to you all over the town!
We dance and sing in street up and down.
We sing to your health, and dance with glee.
We dance and we sing 'round yon maple tree.

The Wind Is For Blowing
Sheet Music | Apple | Spotify | YouTube | Amazon
Lyrics
The wind is for blowing, flowers are for growing
The sky is for raining but don't you go complaining
Eyes are for closing, noses are for nosing
Eyebrows for raising when something is AMAZING!
Heads are for turning, books are for learning
Words are for rhyming, stairs are for climbing
Bells are for ringing, carols are for singing
Pudding is for eating and friends are for greeting on
Christmas Day
So Far Away
Sheet Music | Apple | Spotify | YouTube | Amazon
Lyrics
Every year we see the babe
Tiny child in manger laid
We talk of love, peace on earth
Goodwill to all from this baby’s birth (but)
CHORUS
Peace and goodwill to all people on earth still is
So far away, so far away
We know the tale how shepherds came
From all around to praise his name
How they came in haste to see the boy
How their hearts were filled with hope and joy (but)
CHORUS
Mary lay down when the long day was done
And she brought forth her first born son
The wonder of life, the miracle of birth
For 2000 years, the hope of the earth
INSTRUMENTAL
How can it be that we’re so slow
To learn the things that we should know
That hope can conquer all your fears
And love can wipe away the tears
When every year we see the babe
Tiny child in manger laid
And over the world as church bells ring
We gather round and together sing (but)
CHORUS (repeated)
ENDING
So far away, so far away

Wake Up Sleepyhead

Lyrics
CHORUS
Wake up sleepyhead wake up
Jump up and shout, “Hooray!”
Rise and then shine, everything’s fine
Be happy on this Christmas Day
With the coming of the sun in December
There’s watermelon, grapes and lemonade
And carols by night are a special delight
And Rudolf the Reindeer with the shiny red nose
CHORUS
There’s cricket on the telly all day (and night)
It’s the perfect way to waste time
Short men and tall, hitting bat upon ball
And running around in their yellow pyjamas now
CHORUS
Have you finished your last minute shopping?
Do you have all the presents you need?
One for your sister I hope you haven’t missed her
And don’t forget to buy something nice for the cat
CHORUS (repeated)
ENDING
Be happy on this Christmas Day
Be happy on this Christmas Day
A Very Silly Christmas Song
Sheet Music | Apple | Spotify | YouTube | Amazon
Lyrics
I can sing up I can sing down
Gradually ascend then, do it once again then
Do it very loud then do it very quietly
I would not want to scare you, it would be unfair to
Sing this song at Christmas time and scare you out of your wits
When he’s looking sad sing it to your Dad
And maybe to your brother then try it on your mother
It’s such a lovely thing that people like to sing
I stand around the piano with my good friend Ritchie Benaud
And even the Prime Minister occasionally drops in
I like to sing like this (like this) I like to sing like this (like this)
Do it with fortissimo then with pianissimo
You can have the choice so select a silly voice
(Silly voices)
Give yourself some headroom practice in the bedroom
And sing this song while standing on your head in the shed
Sing a silly song sing a silly song
Sing a silly song sing a silly song
Sing a silly sing a silly sing a silly (pause) - if you
Sing a silly Christmas song you can’t go wrong
(Silly voices)

Lyrics
A baby was born so long ago
His mother watched over, she loved him so
His father sang lullabies then rocked him to sleep
Shepherds and wise men gathered around him and peeped
A baby was born so long ago
His mother watched over, she loved him so
Loved him so, loved him so
How amazing that there could be in that stable bare
The wonder of a baby so precious and so rare
In the winter of December that first Christmas night
When the moon was full and the stars in the heavens were bright
How amazing that there could be in that stable bare
The wonder of a baby so precious and so rare
So rare
Every new baby that’s born is a miracle
Come let’s rejoice and be glad
And filled with hope this Christmas Day
Tiny baby, tiny baby, tiny baby child
Wrapped in swaddling, in a manger, gentle meek and mild
At Christmas we remember that story of old
Peace and goodwill are the hopes in our hearts that we hold
Tiny baby, tiny baby, tiny baby child
Wrapped in swaddling, in a manger, gentle meek and mild
In stable bare

Lyrics
CHORUS
Christmas Day has come again
Come again come again
Christmas Day has come again
Hip Hip Hooray it’s Christmas day
When I was only seven years old
I’d go to bed on Christmas Eve
And twiddle my toes in the middle of the night
The crackle of the presents all wrapped up tight
And when the sun came up I was ready to go
CHORUS
I loved to wake up my Mum and Dad
They never got cross they never got mad
We’d carry the presents to the Christmas Tree
Hoping and hoping that the presents would be
The ones that we’d nagged our Mum and Dad for
CHORUS

Hip Hip Hooray it’s Christmas day
Hip Hip Hooray it’s Christmas day

Christmas Child
Apple | Spotify | YouTube | Amazon | Sheet Music
Lyrics
On a still night under starlight
On a hillside was the familiar sight
Of the shepherds keeping watch o’er
Sleeping flocks as the moon spread its
Soft glow around.
Close at hand lay in a manger
New born Christ Child just a stranger
Watching over Mother Mary
Father Joseph and kings three with
Gifts in their hands.
But Herod heard the news, there was no time to lose
The baby boy he said, would in a while be dead
He could see the day when men would turn away
The time was near when his kingdom
Could crumble and fall.
CHORUS (X2)
Mother Mary, mother mild
You gave away your Christmas child
A gift of hope on a Holy night
So the blind might see the light.
On that starry night the family took to flight
Herod searched in vain all through the night
But mother Mary, father Joseph
And the Christ Child in silence
Had all slipped away.
And as the shepherds, and the kings made
Their journey home from where the boy had laid
There was a song sung from the mountains
As the shepherds rejoiced in
The news they had heard.
CHORUS (X2)
Mother Mary, mother mild
You gave away your Christmas child
A gift of hope on a Holy night
So the blind might see the light.

Love & Joy

Lyrics
CHORUS
Love and joy – comes at Christmas
Baby boy – call him Jesus
Can it be – he can make us
Free again – happy Christmas
Ox and sheep – gather round him
From the East – wise men found him
Love and joy – comes at Christmas
Little boy – call him Jesus.
Out in the fields on a cold December night
The angel appeared in a blaze of great light
The shepherds were afraid but the angel said
To you is born this day in a manger for his bed.
CHORUS
Wise men came, travellers from the east
Brought their gifts and knelt at his feet
Followed the star, to Bethlehem come
Worshipped the child, Mary’s first born son.
CHORUS
Two thousand years is such a long long time ago
But the story’s still the same and deep down we know
That like the stars in the sky and the waves upon the shore
Love doesn’t change – it holds the key to every door.

Lyrics
Holy child of Mary mild
Lay in a manger no room in the inn
Shepherds watched their flocks by night
An angel appeared in a blaze of great light
Be not afraid I bring news of great joy
A Saviour is born on this day.
Rejoice, rejoice with exceeding joy
Rejoice on this Christmas Day.
Wise men came from eastern lands
Followed the star to the stable there-in
Knelt they down before the Child
Opened their treasures and offered to him
Gold and then frankincense, myrrh in their hands
Mary looked up and she smiled
Rejoice, rejoice with exceeding joy
Rejoice on this Christmas Day.
Rejoice, rejoice with exceeding joy
Rejoice on this Christmas Day.
Chock-a-Block (The Inn Keeper’s Song)

Lyrics
Nup, nup, no room in the inn – sorry
Nup, can’t be done, no room in the inn
Absolutely impossible.
We’re chock -a- block as a matter of fact
Every room full you couldn’t swing a cat.
Sorry about this situation
But there’s nothing that I can do
When you’re full, you’re full
And we’re full – sorry!
Chock -a -block, chock -a -block
Chock -a -block as a matter of fact.
He’s sorry about the situation
But there’s nothing that he can do
When you’re full, you’re full
And they’re full – sorry
Chock -a -block, chock -a -block
Chock -a -block as a matter of fact.
