Lyrics for Christmas Songs

Adeste Fideles
(Oh Come All Ye Faithful - Latin)


Adeste Fideles 
Laeti triumphantes 
Venite, venite in Bethlehem 
Natum videte 
Regem angelorum 
Venite adoremus 
Dominum 
Cantet nunc io 
Chorus angelorum 
Cantet nunc aula caelestium

Gloria, gloria 
In excelsis Deo 
Venite adoremus 
Dominum 
Ergo qui natus 
Die hodierna 
Jesu, tibi sit gloria 
Patris aeterni 
Verbum caro factus 
Venite adoremus 
Dominum

Away in a Manger
Traditional Carol
Tune: "Cradle Song", W.J. Kirkpatrick


Away in a manger, no crib for his bed, 
the little Lord Jesus laid down his sweet head. 
The stars in the bright sky looked down where he lay, 
The little Lord Jesus asleep on 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.

Auld Lang Syne
[Robert Burns]


Should auld acquaintance be forgot 
and never brought to mind? 
Should auld acquaintance be forgot 
and days of auld lang syne? 
For auld lang syne, my dear, 
for auld lang syne, 
we'll take a cup of kindness yet, 
for auld lang syne

Blue Christmas

I'll have a blue christmas without you;
I'll be so blue thinking about you.
Decorations of red on a green christmas tree
Won't mean a thing if you're not here with me.
I'll have a blue christmas, that's certain;
And when that blue heartache starts hurtin',
You'll be doin' all right with your christmas of white,
But I'll have a blue, blue christmas.
