The Christmas Album

Said the night wind to the little lamb
Do you see what i see? ( do you see what i see? )
Way up in the sky, little lamb
Do you see what i see ( do you see what i see? )

A star, a star, dancing in the night
With a tail as big as a kite
With a tail as big as a kite!

Said the little lamb to the shepherd boy
Do you hear what i hear? ( do you hear what i hear? )
Ringing through the sky, shepherd boy,
Do you hear what i hear? ( do you hear what i hear? )

A song, a song, high above the tree
With a voice as big as the sea
With a voice as big as the sea!

Said the shepherd boy to the mighty king
Do you know what i know? ( do you know what i know? )
In your palace warm, mighty king
Do you know what i know? ( do you know what i know? )

A child, a child shivers in the cold
Let us bring him silver and gold
Let us bring him silver and gold!

Said the king to the people everywhere ( said the king to the people everywhere! )
Listen to what i say ( listen to what i say! )
Pray for peace, people everywhere ( pray for peace, people everywhere! )
Listen to what i say ( listen to what i say! )

The child, the child, sleeping in the night
He will bring us goodness and light
He will bring us goodness and light!

Do you hear what i hear? ( do you hear what i hear? )
Do you hear what i hear? ( do you hear what i hear? )
Do you hear what i hear? ( do you hear what i hear? )

Toyland, toyland
Little girl and boy land
When you dwell within it
You are ever happy there!

Childhood toyland
Mystical merry toyland
Once you pass it's borders
You can never return again! ( not again! )

Childhood toyland ( toyland! )
Mystical merry toyland
Once you pass it's borders
You can never return again!

( toyland! ) toyland ( toyland! ) toyland
( toyland! ) toyland!

Caroling, caroling, now we go
Christmas bells are ringing
Caroling, caroling thru the snow
Christmas bells are ringing
Joyous voices sweet and clear
Sing the sad of heart to cheer
Ding dong, ding dong
Christmas bells are ringing!

Ding dong, ding dong
Christmas bells are ringing!

The first noël, the angels did say,
Was to certain poor shepherds in fields as they lay;
In fields where they lay keeping their sheep,
On a cold winter's night that was so deep.
Noël, noël, noël, noël
Born is the king of israel.

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 angelic host proclaim, christ is born in bethlehem"
Hark the herald angels sing, glory to the new-born king.

Silent night holy night
All is calm all is bright
'round yon virgin mother an' child
Holy infant so tender an' mild
Sleep in heav'nly peace
Sleep in heav'nly peace

Silent night . . .
Holy night . . .

Everyone, everywhere
Feels the thrill in the air
Christmas eve, christmas eve
Christmas eve!

All the streets snowy white
As they sing "silent night"
On this holy holiday eve!

All the kids are so good
Go to bed when they should
Mustn't take any chances tonight!

They will sleep with a smile
As they dream all the while
Of the gifts they'll receive
Christmas eve!

La, la la, la, la la, la, la la
La, la la . . .

If they gave me a choice
If they left it to me
I know just what my present would be
Peace on earth to all men
And good will once again
All the things we truly believe
Since that long, long ago christmas eve!

La, la la, la, la la, la, la la
La, la la christmas eve, christmas eve
Christmas eve!

La, la la, la, la la,
La, la la . . . to fade

Have yourself a merry little christmas
Let your heart be light
From now on our troubles will be out of sight
Merry christmas, merry merry christmas!

Have yourself a merry little christmas
Make the yuletide gay
From now on our troubles will be miles away!
All your troubles soon turn into bubbles!

Once again, as in olden days
Happy golden days of yore
Faithful friends who are dear to us
Gather near to us once more! ( once more! )

Through the years we all will be together
If the fates allow;
Hang a shining star upon the highest bough
And have yourself a merry little christmas
Now!
