SNOW SONG – School
Frosty weather casts a spell,
On an unsuspecting world,
Now the air has filled with
magic,
Snow is falling down.
Snow comes softly drifting
down,
On the houses all around,
Over every street and rooftop,
Snow is falling down.
Not a whisper, not a sound,
As snowflakes fall and settle
down,
There’s a hush across the town,
As snow comes falling down.
Yrs 3 & 4
People tread through layers of
snow,
Leaving footprints as they go,
Every step is leading homeward,
Snow is falling down.
Yr 5 - 8
Cars are creeping slowly by,
Window wipers keeping time
Skies are full of winter weather,
Snow is falling down.
(Chorus)
Wrapped in snowy eiderdown,
Lies a quiet sleeping town,
There is no one there to notice,
Snow is falling down.
(Chorus)
ONCE IN ROYAL
(Solo – 1 st verse)
He came down to earth from
heaven
Who is God and Lord of all
And his shelter was a stable,
And his cradle was a stall;
With the poor and mean and
lowly
Lived on earth our Saviour holy.
And through all his wondrous
childhood
He would honour and obey,
Love and watch the lowly
maiden,
In whose gentle arms he lay;
Christian children all must be
Mild, obedient, good as he.
And our eyes at last shall see
him,
Through his own redeeming
love,
For that child so dear and gentle
Is our Lord in heaven above,
And he leads his children on
To the place where he is gone.
O LITTLE TOWN
O little town of Bethlehem,
How still we see thee lie!
Above thy deep and dreamless
sleep
The silent stars go by.
Yet in the dark streets shineth
The everlasting light;
The hopes and fears of all the
years
Are met in thee tonight.
How silently, how silently,
The wondrous gift is given!
So God imparts to human hearts
The blessings of his heaven.
No ear may hear his coming,
But in this world of sin,
Where meek souls will receive
him still,
The dear Christ enters in.
O holy Child of Bethlehem,
Descend to us we pray;
Cast out our sin and enter in;
Be born in us today!
We hear the Christmas angels
The great glad tidings tell:
O come to us, abide with us,
Our Lord Emmanuel!
A SUSSEX CAROL - Schl
On Christmas night all
Christians sing
To hear the news the angels
bring:
(Twice)
News of great joy, news of great
mirth,
News of our merciful King’s
birth.
Then why should men on earth
be sad,
Since our Redeemer made us
glad,
(Twice)
When from our sin he set us free,
All for to gain our liberty.
When sin departs before his
grace,
Then life and health come in its
place;
(Twice)
Angels and men with joy may
sing,
All for to see the new-born King.
All out of darkness we have
light,
Which made the angels sing this
night:
(Twice)
‘Glory to God and peace to men,
Now and for evermore – Amen.’
ADESTE FIDELES
Adeste, Fideles,
Laeti triumphantes:
Venite, venite in Bethlehem:
Natum videte
Regem angelorum:
Venite, adoremus,
Venite adoremus,
Venite, adoremus Dominum.
God of God,
Light of Light,
Lo, he abhors not the Virgin’s
womb;
Very God,
Begotten not created:
O come, let us adore him,
O come, let us adore him,
O come, let us adore him,
Christ the Lord.
Sing, choirs of angels,
Sing in exultation,
Sing, all ye citizens of heav’n
above:
Glory to God in the highest:
O come, let us adore him….
Yea, Lord, we greet thee,
Born that happy morning;
Jesu, to thee be glory given:
Word of the Father,
Now in flesh appearing:
O come, let us adore him…

WHILE SHEPHERDS
While shepherds watched their
flocks by night,
All seated on the ground,
The angel of the Lord came
down,
And glory shone around.
Sweet chiming Christmas bells,
Sweet chiming Christmas bells,
They lead us on our heavenward
way,
Sweet chiming bells.
‘Fear not’ said he (for mighty
dread had seized their troubled
mind);
‘Glad tidings of great joy I bring
To you and all mankind’.
To you, in David’s town this
day,
Is born, of David’s line,
A saviour who is Christ the
Lord;
And this shall be the sign;
CALYPSO CAROL – Yr 3-4
See him lying on a bed of straw;
A draughty stable with an open
door
Mary cradling the babe she bore;
The Prince of Glory is his name.
O, now carry me to Bethlehem
To see the Lord appear to men.
Just as poor as was the stable
then,
The Prince of Glory when he
came.
Star of silver sweep across the
skies,
Show where Jesus in the manger
lies.
Shepherds, swiftly from your
stupor rise.
To see the saviour of the world.
Angels, sing again the song you
sang,
Bring God’s glory to the heart of
man;
Sing that Beth’lem’s little baby
can
Be salvation to the soul
WINTER WONDERLAND
– Yrs 5 - 8
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 meadows 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 made,
Walking in a winter wonderland.
GOD REST YOU MERRY
God rest you merry, gentlemen,
Let nothing you dismay,
For Jesus Christ our Saviour
Was born upon this day.
To save us all from Satan’s
power
When we were gone astray:
O tidings of comfort and joy,
comfort and joy!
O tidings of comfort and joy!
From God our heav’nly Father
A blessed angel came,
And unto certain shepherds
Brought tidings of the same,
How that in Bethlehem was born
The Son of God by name:
The shepherds at those tidings
Rejoicèd much in mind,
And left their flocks a-feeding
In tempest, storm and wind,
And went to Bethlehem
straightway
This blessèd Babe to find:
Now to the Lord sing praises,
All you within this place,
And with true love and
brotherhood
Each other now embrace;
This holy tide of Christmas
All others doth deface:
I SAW THREE SHIPS
CHOIR
I saw three ships come
sailing in,
On Christmas Day, on
Christmas Day,
I saw three ships come
sailing in,
On Christmas Day in the
morning.
And what was in those ships
all three…
Our Saviour Christ and his
Ladie…
Pray, whither sailed those
ships all three…
O they sailed into
Bethlehem…
ALL
And all the bells on earth
shall ring…
And all the Angels in Heaven
shall sing…
And all the souls on earth
shall sing…
Then let us all rejoice amain..
CHRISTMAS TIME! -
Schl
Christmas time! Christmas
time!
Mary’s had a son!
Angels sing, Angels sing,
Telling ev’ryone.
The holly’s up, up, up,
The Christmas lights are up,
Ev’rything’s jolly and merry.
Jesus was born, Jesus was
born,
Born for me and you,
We thank him, we thank him,
For his love so true.
(Chorus – twice)
