Frost on the houses, Lights on the trees Wool winter sweaters, cold winter breeze I won't be happy, this much I know Till everythings covered in snow Lets take a sleigh ride, mittens and boots Jackets zipped up to our noses and tuques Oh Can I kiss you?, warm up your toes? When everythings covered with snow Cracklin fire socks on my feet Stockings all hangin so tidy n neat Dance with me darlin near the mistletoe Cause baby it's starting to snow Snowflakes n snowdays n snowmen with hats Snowballs n snow forts n snow shoes for tracks Snow storms with snowplows make snowbanks for free!! Snow kisses stolen near snow covered trees Choirs n' candles n' dancing n' food White Christmas playin to set the mood All this excitement, is starting to grow Cause everything covered with snow

We three kings of Orient are Bearing gifts we traverse afar. Field and fountain, moor and mountain Following yonder star. Born a king on Bethlehem's plain, Gold I bring to crown Him again, King forever, ceasing never Over us all to reign. CHORUS O - star of wonder, star of night Star with royal beauty bright Westward leading, still proceeding, Guide us to thy perfect Light. Frankincense to offer have I, Incense owns a Day-a-tea nigh. Prayer and praising all men raising, Worship Him, God on high. Myrrh is mine: Its bitter perfume, Breathes a life of gathering gloom. Sorrowing, sighing, bleeding dying, Sealed in the stone-cold tomb. Glorious now behold Him arise, King and God and Sacrifice. Alleluia, Alleluia - Sounds through the earth and skies.

LYRICS: The frost outside my window crows With a dull and lifeless pose That seems to creep into my clothes The sun comes shining through the grey Winter seems to run away But those moments never stay I've been dreaming of coming home for Christmas 'Cause this city seems so cold to me And you seem so far away On this cold and cloudy day And I could use the company The streets are full of Christmas cheer But how I wish I had you here To see your smile and have you near 'Cause I've been frozen like a lake I've been thinner than a rake So keep me warm for goodness sake I've been dreaming of coming home for Christmas 'Cause this city seems so cold to me And you seem so far away On this cold and cloudy day And I could use the company I've heard the stories wise men tell How the grace of heaven fell To break the icy grip of hell There was springtime in His eyes He heard the weak and lonely cries And all he touched was raised to life I've been dreaming of coming home for Christmas 'Cause this city seems so cold to me Well, you left your father's side For the world for which you died To melt the frost and part the sea You've got a mansion made for me Well, I could use the company

LYRICS: White snow, hearts glow, on this Christmas season. Mistle toe, you sure know, what you‘ve been missing Friends around, love found, choirs gently singing Merry Christmas and a happy new year Light up that tree, unwind you’ll see, Yule tide fire crackle Grateful heart, its where it starts, Smile while angels bringing Can you forgive; thankfully live, for all you’ve been given Merry Christmas and a happy new year Merry Christmas and a happy new year

LRYICS: Snow falls down without a sound On this silent night is there peace to be found? Are the diamonds in the sky like the diamonds in Your eyes? How they beckon to me! iIm on the ground but i long to fly I need to see You, I need to hear You I need You to save me from myself I need to see You, I need to hear You I need you to save me from myself Then He spoke to me He said "walk with me. Stop trying so hard Just take my hand and walk with Me.. ...My child... I see you, and I hear you I want you to put your trust in Me I see you and I hear you Just put your trust in Me" so I'll say more of you Jesus, and less of me Snow falls down without a sound On this silent night what a peace I've found
