All I Want for Christmas is my Two Front Teeth 1. All I want for Christmas is my two front teeth My two front teeth, my two front teeth! Gee, if I could only have my two front teeth, Then I could wish you “Merry Christmas!” It seems so long since I could say, “Sister Susie sitting on a thistle!” Gosh oh gee, how happy I’d be, If I could only whistle (thhhhhh). 2. All I want for Christmas is my two front teeth My two front teeth, my two front teeth! Gee, if I could only have my two front teeth, Then I could wish you “Merry Christmas!” 2. Angels We Have Heard on High 1. Angels we have heard on high Sweetly singing o’re the pains, And the mountains in repy Echoing their joyous strains. Glo-ria in excelsis Deo, Glo-ria in excelsis Deo. 2. Shepherds, why this jubilee? Why your joyous strains prolong? What the gladsome tidings be? Which inspire your heavenly song? Glo-ria in excelsis Deo, Glo-ria in excelsis Deo. 3. Auld Lang Syne Should old acquaintance be forgot, And never bought to mind? Should auld acquaintance be forgot,’ And days of old lang syne? For old lang syne, my dear, for old lang syne, We’ll take a cup of kindness yet, for old lang syne. The Siskiyou School: Holiday Songbook Page 1 2nd Edition, 2020 4. Away in a Manger 1. Away in the manger, no crib for a bed, The little Lord Jesus laid down his sweet head. The stars in the sky looked down where he lay, The little Lord Jesus, asleep on the hay. 2. 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 cradle till morning is nigh. 3. 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 take me to heaven to live with tee there. 5. Blue Christmas 1. I’ll have a blue Christmas without you ’ll be blue thinking about you. Decorations of red On a green Christmas tree Won’t mean a thing If you’re not here with me. 2. 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. The Siskiyou School: Holiday Songbook Page 2 2nd Edition, 2020 6. Carol of the Animals 1. Jesus, our brother strong and good Was humbly born in a stable rude The friendly beasts around him stood Jesus, our brother strong and good. 2. I, said the donkey, shaggy and brown I carried his mother uphill and down I carried her safely to Bethlehem town I, said the donkey shaggy and brown. 3. I, said the cow all white and red I gave him my manager for his bed I gave him my hay to pillow his head I, said the cow all white and red. 4. I, said the sheep with the curly horn I gave him my wool for a blanket warm He wore my coat on Christmas morn I, said the sheep with the curly horn. 5. I, said the camel, yellow and black Over the desert upon my back I brought him a gift on the wise man’s pack I, sad he camel, yellow and black. 6. I, said the dove from the rafters high I cooe him to sleep that he should not cry We cooed him to sleep, my mate and I I, said the dove from the rafters high. 7. So every beast by some good spell In the stable dark was glad to tell Of the gift he gave Emmanuel The gift he gave Emmanuel. The Siskiyou School: Holiday Songbook Page 3 2nd Edition, 2020 7. 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. Ding, ding, ding, dong! That is their song, with joyful ring, all caroling One seems to hear, words of good cheer, from everywhere, filling the air. Oh, how they pound, raising the sound! O’er hill and dale, telling their tale. Gaily they ring, while people sing, songs of good 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 ev’ry home. Ding------------ding dong ding dong! 8. 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 tots with their eyes all a-glow, will find it hard to sleep tonight. They know that Santa’s on his way, He’s loaded lots of toys and goodies on his sleigh. And every mother’s child is gonna spy, To see if reindeer really know how to fly. And so I’m offering this simple phrase, to kids from one to ninety-two. Although it’s been said many times, many ways, “Merry Christmas to you”! 9. Deck the Halls 1. Deck the halls with boughs of holly, fa la la la la, la la la la ‘Tis the season to be jolly, fa la la la la, la la la la. Don we now our gay apparel, fa la la la la, la la la la. 2. See the blazing yule before us, fa la la la la, la la la la Strike the harp and join the chorus, fa la la la la, la la la la. Follow me in merry measure, fa la la la la, la la la la While I tell of yuletide treasure, fa la la la la, la la la la. 3. Fast away the old year passes, fa la la la la, la la la la Hail the new, ye lads and lasses, fa la la la la, la la la la. Sing we joyous all together, fa la la la la, la la la la Heedless of the wind and weather, fa la la la la, la la la la. The Siskiyou School: Holiday Songbook Page 4 2nd Edition, 2020 10.

    Lyle Tompsen, Student Number 28001102, Masters Dissertation The Mari Lwyd and the Horse Queen: Palimpsests of Ancient ideas A dissertation submitted to the University of Wales Trinity Saint David in fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts Celtic Studies 2012 Lyle Tompsen 1 Lyle Tompsen, Student Number 28001102, Masters Dissertation Abstract The idea of a horse as a deity of the land, sovereignty and fertility can be seen in many cultures with Indo-European roots. The earliest and most complete reference to this deity can be seen in Vedic texts from 1500 BCE. Documentary evidence in rock art, and sixth century BCE Tartessian inscriptions demonstrate that the ancient Celtic world saw this deity of the land as a Horse Queen that ruled the land and granted fertility. Evidence suggests that she could grant sovereignty rights to humans by uniting with them (literally or symbolically), through ingestion, or intercourse. The Horse Queen is represented, or alluded to in such divergent areas as Bronze Age English hill figures, Celtic coinage, Roman horse deities, mediaeval and modern Celtic masked traditions. Even modern Welsh traditions, such as the Mari Lwyd, infer her existence and confirm the value of her symbolism in the modern world. 2 Lyle Tompsen, Student Number 28001102, Masters Dissertation Table of Contents List of definitions: ............................................................................................................ 8 Introduction ..................................................................................................................

  • The Boar's Head and Yule Log Festival
    The Boar’s Head and Yule Log Festival January 3 & 4, 2015 IN THE CITY OF CINCINNATI The Festival’s roots. Oxford University’s Queens College, The Boar’s Head Tradition Oxford, England. From Medieval Terrors to Modern Magic 1340 - 2015 The Boar’s Head Festival is probably the oldest continuing festival of the Christmas season. When it came to Cincinnati in 1940, it already had a 600-year history. The pageant’s roots go back to medieval times when wild boars were the most dangerous animals in European forests. They were a menace to humans and were hunted as public enemies. Like our Thanksgiving turkey, roasted boar was a staple of medieval banquet tables—symbolizing the triumph of man over ferocious beast. As Christian beliefs overtook pagan customs in Europe, the presentation of a boar’s head at Christmas time came to symbolize the triumph of the Christ Child over the evils of the world. The festival we know today originated at Queen’s College, Oxford, England, in 1340. Legend has it that a scholar was studying a book of Aristotle while walking through the forest on his way to Christmas Mass. Suddenly he was confronted by an angry boar. Having no other weapon, the quick-witted student rammed his metal-bound philosophy book down the throat of the charging animal and the boar choked to death. That night, the beast’s head, finely dressed and garnished, was carried in procession into the dining room accompanied by carolers. By 1607, a similar ceremony was being celebrated at St. John’s College, Cambridge.

  • A Blue Christmas Reflection You Brings
    God became a human being among us all. Once again it is dark. Not just dark at midnight but dark in ourselves: dark with doubt, dark with fear and uncertainty, Dark with confusing and conflicting voices in our ears. Come, light of Life, lighten the darkness in our lives with your mighty word of love. Lighten our hearts with the joy of your promised coming. Lighten our world with the hope that faith in A Blue Christmas Reflection you brings. The Word of the Lord Luke 2: 1-7 About that time Caesar Augustus ordered a census to be taken throughout the Empire. This was the first census when Quirinius was governor of Syria. Everyone had to travel to his own ancestral hometown to be accounted for. So Joseph went from the Galilean town of Nazareth up to Bethlehem in Judah, David’s town, for the census. As a descendant of David, he had to go there. He went with Mary, his fiancée, who was Background pregnant. While they were there, the time came for her to give birth. She gave birth to a son, her firstborn. We're very conscious that this time of year is a time of She wrapped him in a blanket and laid him in a manger, great excitement and joy for some, but for others, it is a because there was no room in the hostel. time of intense loneliness and pain. There is pressure on us to ‘join the celebrations’ (even though they will be different Reflection this year). Sometimes we are just not in that place.

  • December 2020: the Peaceful Transfer of Mumming
    Folklife Today December 2020: The Peaceful Transfer of Mumming Announcer: From the Library of Congress in Washington, D.C. Music: “Breaking Up Christmas” played by Norman Edmonds, Paul Edmonds, and Rufus Quesinberry. JOHN FENN: Welcome to Folklife Today! I’m John Fenn, the head of research and programs at the American Folklife Center, and I’m here with Steve Winick, a folklife specialist at the Center and the creator of the Folklife Today blog. Steve: Hi, everyone! John: We have kind of an unusual episode for December. Every year, in the week or two before Christmas, staff members of the American Folklife Center put our research and performance skills into play, bringing collections to life in a dramatic performance that tours the halls of the Library of Congress. The performance is based on traditional mummers’ plays. And this year, since we can’t actually perform our mummers’ play live, we decided to do it as a podcast episode, sort of like an old-time radio play. We did all the recording remotely over the Web, so sound quality varies. Steve: Right, but we don’t want to throw our audience in at the deep end, so we’re going to say a little about the tradition first. And for that, we’re joined by Jennifer Cutting, another folklife specialist at the American Folklife Center. Hi Jennifer! Jennifer: Hi John! Hi Steve! Hi everybody out there! John: So Jennifer, what are mummer’s plays? Jennifer: Well, “mumming” is an old word for a tradition of getting dressed up in costumes and going from house to house, doing a performance in exchange for food, drink…sometimes money.

  • December 2018: Christmas Songs from the American Folklife Center
    Folklife Today December 2018: Christmas Songs from the American Folklife Center Steve Winick: Welcome to the Folklife Today podcast. I’m Steve Winick, the editor in the American Folklife Center at the Library of Congress, and the creator of the Folklife Today blog, and I’m here with John Fenn, the head of Research and Programs at the Center. John Fenn: Hello. You’ve probably noticed that the holiday season is here. You hear Christmas tunes everywhere this time of year – on the radio, in the mall, in your family’s home. I thought we could look into some more unusual traditional Christmas songs. Steve Winick: So we had our staff here at the American Folklife Center pick their favorite songs to talk about today. John Fenn: That said, would you like to start us off? Steve Winick: I’d love to. John Fenn: What song do you have to share with us? Steve Winick: I’m a big fan of “The Cherry Tree Carol.” It’s one you can hear sung by a lot of people, from Joan Baez to Annie Lennox. It tells a story derived from one of the apocryphal gospels, which came into English in the middle ages, both in this ballad and in Christmas mystery plays. John Fenn: Wow! So this is medieval caroling. How did you first hear it? Steve Winick: Well, I was a medievalist a long time ago, and I came across the song back then when I studied the N-Town plays, a set of medieval mystery plays that tell the same story.

  • Apple Wassail
    Apple Wassail The word wassail comes from the Anglo-Saxon toast Wæs þu hæl, meaning "be thou hale" — "be in good health". There are two different types of wassail – the house-visiting wassail and the orchard- visiting or apple wassail. The house-visiting wassail, also known as caroling, is the practice of going door-to-door singing Christmas carols. Apple wassailing refers to the practice of visiting orchards, drinking the health of the trees and singing to them to promote a good harvest next year. The first recorded mention of apple wassailing was at Fordwich, Kent in 1585 when groups of young men went around orchards performing the rite for a reward. It was common in the cider orchards of South West England and many of the traditional wassail songs are indeed from this area – primarily Devon, Somerset, Dorset, Gloucestershire and Herefordshire. The practice was carried out to ‘bless’ the trees, to wake them up and scare away evil spirits and so to encourage a good crop for the following autumn. The date for wassailing apple trees varies widely – from Christmas Eve in some areas, to Twelfth Night Eve (Twelfth night is January 6th) or New year’s Day in others. Many areas perform the ceremony on January 17th which corresponds to January 6th before the calendar was changed in England in 1752. Apple wassailing was sometimes referred to as ‘howling’ and was historically performed by men. The elements of the ceremony varied and included some or all of the following: • a wassail King and Queen leading the song and/or processional tune played/sung from one orchard to the next • lifting the wassail Queen up into the boughs of the tree • soaking slices of bread or toast in last years cider and lying these on the tree roots or hanging them in the branches – by the wassail Queen if there is one – as a gift to the tree spirits • pouring cider over the tree roots • drinking cider from a wassail bowl which was passed round • singing and chanting apple wassails around the trees • firing of shotguns to scare away any evil spirits.

  • Blue Christmas Booklet
    The Longest Night: A Blue Christmas Service We greet you in the name of our Christ and offer you His love and embrace. Today we gather for a Blue Christmas Service; ‘blue’ as in the blues, or “I am feeling blue.” We recognize that not everyone is emotionally up and cheery for the Christmas holidays. Dealing with the pandemic, the fear, the loss of normal social interactions, as well as perhaps the death of a loved one, facing life after divorce or separation, coping with the loss of a job, living with cancer, or some other disease that puts a question mark over the future, and a number of other human situations make parties and joviality painful for many people in our parishes and communities. There is a growing attentiveness to the needs of people who are feeling blue, or a little down, at Christmastime. Increasing numbers of churches are creating sacred space for people living through dark times. Such services are reflective, accepting where we really are, and holding out healing and hope. And that is why Saint Miriam is holding this The Longest Night Service, taking place near the actual Winter Solstice, the longest day of the year, with the year’s least amount of daylight. Symbols not to be lost or overlooked. There is also an interesting convergence for this day as we combine today’s service with a traditional Mass on a Sunday. This linkage invites making some connections between our own struggle to believe the tale of Jesus’ resurrection, the long nights just before Christmas, and the struggle with darkness and grief faced by those living with loss and the reality that today, in the Sacrifice of the Mass, God comes and is made manifest and real.
