Carols Lyrics
1. JOY TO THE WORLD
Joy to the world, the Lord is come,
Let earth receive her King
Let ev'ry heart prepare Him room
And heaven and nature sing, and heaven and nature sing
And heaven and heaven, and nature sing
Joy to the world, the Savior reigns, let all their songs employ
While fields and floods, rocks hills and plains
Repeat the sounding joy, repeat the sounding joy
Repeat, repeat the sounding joy
Chorus
Joy unspeakable joy, an overflowing well, no tongue can tell
Joy unspeakable joy, rises in my soul, never lets me go
He rules the world, with truth and grace, and makes the nations prove
The glories of His righteousness
And wonders of His love, and wonders of His love
And wonders wonders of His love
2. ANGELS WE HAVE HEARD ON HIGH
Angels we have heard on high
Sweetly singing o'er the plains
And the mountains in reply
Echoing their joyous strains
Gloria, in excelsis Deo
Gloria, praise the King of heaven
Come to Bethlehem and see
Him whose birth the angels sing,
Come, adore on bended knee,
Christ the Lord, the newborn King.
3. MARY’S BOY CHILD
Long time ago in Bethlehem, so the Holy Bible said
Mary's boy child Jesus Christ, was born on Christmas Day
CHORUS
Hark, now hear the angels sing, a new king born today
And man will live for evermore, because of Christmas Day
Trumpets sound and Angels sing, listen to what they say
That Man will live forever more, because of Christmas Day
While shepherds watch their flocks by night
They see a bright new shining star
They hear a choir sing, the music seemed to come from afar
Now Joseph and his wife Mary, come to Bethlehem that night
Them found no place to born the child, not a single room was in sight
By and by they found a little nook in a stable all forlorn
And in a manger cold and dark, Mary’s little boy was born
Long time ago in Bethlehem, so the Holy Bible said
Mary's boy child Jesus Christ, was born on Christmas Day
4. HARK THE HERALD
Hark! the herald angels sing
Glory to the new-born 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
Christ, by highest heaven adored
Christ, the everlasting Lord
Late in time behold him come
Offspring of the Virgin's womb
Veiled in flesh, the God Head see
Hail the incarnate Deity
Pleased as man with men to dwell
Jesus, our Emmanuel!
Hark! the herald angels sing
Glory to the new-born King
Hail the Heaven-born Prince of Peace
Hail the Son of righteousness
Light and life to all He brings
Risen with healing in His wings
Mild He lays His glory by
Born that man no more may die
Born to raise the sons of earth
Born to give them second birth
Hark! the herald angels sing
Glory to the new-born King
5. RUDOLPH
You know Dasher and Dancer and Prancer and Vixen,
Comet and Cupid and Donner and Blitzen,
But do you recall
The most famous reindeer of all
Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer
Had a very shiny nose
And if you ever saw it
You would even say it glows
All of the other reindeer
Used to laugh and call him names
They never let poor Rudolph
Play in any reindeer games
Then one foggy Christmas Eve
Santa came to say
Rudolph with your nose so bright,
Won't you guide my sleigh tonight
Then all the reindeer loved him
As they shouted out with glee,
Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer,
You'll go down in history
6. JINGLE BELLS / AUSSIE JINGLE BELLS
Dashing through the snow
On a one horse open sleigh
Over the fields we go, laughing all the way
Bells on bob tail ring, making spirits bright
What fun it is to laugh and sing, a sleighing song tonight
Oh, jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way
Oh, what fun it is to ride in a one horse open sleigh
Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way
Oh, what fun it is to ride
In a one horse open sleigh
Dashing through the bush in a rusty Holden ute
Kicking up the dust, esky in the boot
Kelpie by my side, singing Christmas songs
It's summer time and I am in my singlet, shorts and thongs
Oh, jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way
Christmas in Australia on a scorching summer's day (hey!)
Jingle bells, jingle bells, Christmas time is beaut
Oh, what fun it is to ride in a rusty Holden ute
Engine's getting hot, we dodged the kangaroos
Swaggie climbs aboard, he is welcome too
All the family is there, sitting by the pool
Christmas day the Aussie way by the barbecue
Oh, jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way
Christmas in Australia on a scorching summer's day (hey!)
Jingle bells, jingle bells, Christmas time is beaut
Oh, what fun it is to ride in a rusty Holden ute
Come the afternoon, Grandpa has a doze
The kids and Uncle Bruce, are swimming in their clothes
The time comes round to go, we take a family snap
And pack the car and all shoot through before the washing up
Oh, jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way
Christmas in Australia on a scorching summer's day (hey!)
Jingle bells, jingle bells, Christmas time is beaut
Oh, what fun it is to ride in a rusty Holden ute
7. OH LITTLE TOWN OF BETHLEHEM
Oh little town of Bethlehem
How still we see thee lie
Above the dark and dreamless sky
The silent stars go by
For in the dark sky shineth
The everlasting light
The hopes and fears of all the years
Are met in thee tonight
For Christ is born of Mary,
And gathered all above
While mortals sleep the Angels keep
Their watch of wondering love
O morning stars together,
Proclaim the Holy birth
And praises sing, to God the King,
And peace to men, on earth.
O Holy child of Bethlehem,
Descend on us we pray;
Cast out our sin and enter in
Be born in us today.
We hear the Christmas angels,
Their great glad tidings tell,
O come to us, abide in us,
Our Lord, Emanuel.
8. THE FIRST NOEL
The first noel, 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
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
Born is the King of Israel
They looked up and saw a star
Shining in the east, beyond them far
And to the earth, it gave great light
And so it continued both day and night
The King is born, The King is born, The King is born
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
Born is the king of Israel
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
Born is the king of Israel
Let angels rejoice,
They all bow before Him, the King is born
9. LITTLE DRUMMER BOY
Come they told me
A new born king to see
Our finest gifts we bring
To lay before the king
So to honour him, when we come
Little baby
I am a poor boy too
I have no gift to bring
That's fit to give a king
Shall I play for you, on my drum
Mary nodded
The ox and lamb kept time
I played my drum for him
I played my best for him
Then he smiled at me
Me and my drum
10. AWAY IN A MANGER
Away in a manger no crib for a bed
The little Lord Jesus lay down His sweet head
The stars in the sky looked down where they lay
The little Lord Jesus asleep in the hay
The cattle are lowing the baby awakes
But little Lord Jesus no crying He makes
I love Thee Lord Jesus look down from the sky
And stay by my side until morning is nigh
Be near me Lord Jesus, I ask Thee to stay
Close by me forever and love me I pray
Bless all the dear children in Thy tender care
And fit us for heaven to live with Thee there
11. 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 Hallelujah
Christ our Savior is born
Christ our Savior is born
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
12. O COME ALL YE FAITHFUL
O come, all ye faithful
Joyful and triumphant
O come ye, o come ye to Bethlehem
Come and behold Him
Born the King of Angels
CHORUS
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 heaven above
Glory to God
All glory in the highest
Yea, Lord, we greet Thee
Born this happy morning
O Jesus, to thee be all glory given
Word of the Father
Now in flesh appearing
