The first good joy that
Christmas brings, it is the joy of one,
To see the star of
Bethlehem that shone on
Mary's son,
That shone on
Mary's son, good friends,
that shone on
Mary's son,
Come to see the star of
Bethlehem that shone on
Mary's side.
O little town of
Bethlehem, how still we see thee lie
Above thy deep and dreamless sleep,
the silent stars go by,
Yet in thy dark streets shineth
the everlasting light.
The hopes and fears of all the years
are met in thee to night.
The next, the joy that
Christmas brings,
it is the joy of two.
When carols ring on
Christmas
Day to tell the tale anew,
To tell the tale anew, good friends,
to tell the tale anew,
When carols ring on
Christmas
Day, to tell the tale anew.
the halls with boughs of holly,
Fa -la -la -la -la, fa -la -la -la,
Tis the season to be jolly,
Fa -la -la -la -la, fa -la -la -la.
Don we now our gay apparel,
Fa -la -la -la -la, la -la -la,
Draw the ancient yuletide carol,
Fa -la -la -la -la, la -la -la -la.
The next good joy that
Christmas brings
It is the joy of four
Of shepherds keeping watch that night
Beside the stable door.
Ah, the shepherds keeping
watch that night
Beside the stable door.
The first
Noel the angels did say
Was to certain poor shepherds
in fields where they lay
In fields where they lay keeping their sheep
On a cold winter's night
that was so deep
Noel,
Noel,
Noel,
Noel,
Born is the
King of
Is rael.
The greatest joy that
Christmas brings, it is the joy of five,
The message of good will to men,
forever kept alive,
Forever kept alive, good friends,
forever kept alive,
The message of goodwill,
The message of goodwill,
The message of goodwill
to men forever kept alive.
