# The Evolution of Christmas Music
*O come all ye faithful*
O come all ye faithful,
joyful and triumphant.
O come ye, O come ye to Bethlehem.

*silent night*
Silent night, holy night,
all is calm, all is bright,
round young virgin mother and child.
Holy infant so tender and mild.
Sleep in heavenly peace.
Sleep in heavenly peace.

*O holy night*
O, holy night, the stars are brightly shining.
It is the night of our dear savior鈥檚 birth.
Long lay the world in sin and error pining,
till he appear, and the soul felt its worth.
- - - -
*O come, O come, Emanuel*
O come, O come, Emanuel.
A ransom captive Israel
that mourns in lonely exile here,
until the son of god appear.
- - - -
*what child is this*
What child is this, who lay to rest,
on Mary鈥檚 lap is sleeping,
whom angels greet with anthem sweet
while shepherd鈥檚 watch are keeping.
This, this is Christ the king,
whom shepherds guard and angels sing.
Haste, haste to bring him laud,
the babe the son of Mary.

*how great thou art*
Then sings my soul, my savior God to thee.
How great thou art, how great thou art!

*carol of the bells*
Hark! How the bells, sweet silver bells,
all seem to say, throw cares away.
Christmas is here, bringing good cheer
to young and old, meek and the bold.
Gaily they ring while people sing in the songs of good cheer (cheer) (Christmas is here)
Merry merry merry merry Christmas.
Merry merry merry merry Christmas.
On, on they send, on without end,
their joyful tone to every home.

*Drummer boy*
Our finest gifts we bring
to lay before the king.

*I鈥檒l be home for christmas*
I鈥檒l be home for Christmas,
you can count on me.
(If it isn鈥檛 too much trouble) Please have snow and mistletoe and presents under the tree.
Christmas Eve will find me where the love-light gleams.
I鈥檒l be home for Christmas
if only in my dreams.
- - - -
*the Christmas song*
Chestnuts roasting on an open fire,
Jack Frost nipping at your nose.
Yuletide carols being sung by a choir,
and folks dressed up like Eskimos.
Everybody knows a turkey and some mistletoe
help to make the season bright.
Tiny little tots with their eyes all a-glow
will find it hard to sleep tonight.
- - - -
*so this is Christmas*
So this is Christmas, and what have you done.
another year over and a new one just begun.
- - - -
*Mary did you know*
Mary did you know, that your baby boy,
would one day walk on water.
Mary did you know, that your baby boy,
would save our sons and daughters.
Did you know, that your baby boy,
has come to make you new,
this child that you鈥檝e delivered
will soon deliver you.
- - - -
*grown-up Christmas list*
Do you remember me, I sat upon your knee.
I wrote to you with childhood fantasies.
I鈥檓 all grown up now, and still need help somehow.
I鈥檓 not a child, but my heart still can dream.
- - - -
*all I want for Christmas is you*
I don鈥檛 want a awful Christmas, there is just one thing I need.
I don鈥檛 care about the other presents underneath the Christmas tree.
I don鈥檛 need to hang my stocking there upon the fireplace.
Santa Claus will make me happy with the joy of Christmas Day.
I just want you for my own, more than you could ever know.
Make my wish come true,
baby all I want for Christmas is you.
Baby!
- - - -
*believe*
believe in what your heart is saying,
hear the melody that鈥檚 playing.
There鈥檚 no time to waste,
there鈥檚 so much to celebrate.
Believe in what you feel inside,
and give your dreams the wings to fly.
You have everything you need,
if you just believe.
- - - -
*December song*
Those silent nights, holy nights and angel singing lullabies.
And heaven and nature,
singing good wills to all,
to all.
