  • The Twelve Days of Christmas a Testimony-Based Devotional by Dayna Schoonmaker
    The Twelve Days of Christmas A Testimony-based Devotional by Dayna Schoonmaker The Twelve Days of Christmas A Testimony-based Devotional by Dayna Schoonmaker For many of you, it may be old news that the twelve days of Christmas begin on ​ Christmas day rather than ending on the 25th. But, somehow, I grew up with the idea ​ that the twelve days of Christmas was part of the hype leading up to the arrival of Santa and the birth of Jesus. It’s not surprising since the song ‘The Twelve Days of Christmas’ plays alongside ‘Silent Night’ and ‘Have a Holly, Jolly Christmas’ throughout December. Still, it was somewhat unsettling to find I’d been doing Christmas ‘wrong’ for years. The problem with this misunderstanding is that Advent is the season that leads up to ​ ​ Christmas, while the twelve days of Christmas are meant to be celebrated beginning on the 25th. By pushing the twelve days of Christmas into the Advent season, we deny ourselves room to experience the longing that precedes Christmas, almost like skipping the pregnancy and going straight to the birth. And I get it. By December of each year, and this year in particular, I am ready for the holly, jolly part of the season to go ahead and get here. Once December 25th rolls around, I am usually ready to clean things up and move on. However, by denying the fullness of Advent with its tiny wonders amid the waiting, we also diminish the full revelation of Christmas, when Light bursts forth into the darkness and transforms everything.

  • Christmas Carol Lyrics
    1 COMMUNITY CHORUS PROJECT, KIDZU CHILDREN’S MUSEUM & UNIVERSITY PLACE PRESENT A HOLIDAY SING ALONG! Conducted by Caroline Miceli & Accompanied by Scott Schlesinger JINGLE BELLS A pair of hopalong boots and a pistol that shoots Is the wish of Barney and Ben; Refrain: Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way Dolls that will talk and will go for a walk Oh, what fun it is to ride in a one horse open sleigh Is the hope of Janice and Jen; Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way And Mom and Dad can hardly wait for school to start again. Oh, what fun it is to ride in a one horse open sleigh It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas ev'rywhere you go; Dashing through the snow in a one horse open sleigh There's a tree in the Grand Hotel, one in the park as well, Over fields we go, laughing all the way The sturdy kind that doesn't mind the snow. Bells on bob tail ring, making spirits bright. It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas; What fun it is to ride & sing a sleigh song tonight! (Refrain) Soon the bells will start, And the thing that will make them ring is the carol that you A day or two ago I thought I'd take a ride sing right within your heart And soon Miss Fanny Bright was seated by my side; The horse was lean and lank. Misfortune seemed his lot, Santa Claus is Coming to Town We ran into a drifted bank and there we got upsot.

  • Dear Caroling Saints, As We Move Through Advent Toward Christmas
    Dear Caroling Saints, As we move through Advent toward Christmas Day, we will certainly hear many Christmas carols and songs on television and radio programs. In this age of satellite radio and streaming music with individualized playlists, one could listen to Christmas music round the clock. Of course, we have choices as to the nature of the Christmas music we listen to. Will it be country, jazz, traditional, rock, classical, or any of the many other genres available on the airways? Will we immerse ourselves in the rich hymnody of our faith, or will it be everything from Jingle Bells to Santa Baby? Well, you are in luck, because I have the answer to this question. Reviewing the Billboard Holiday 100 Chart (top radio airplay) for the week of December 20, 2014, I found evidence for the most played Christmas songs. They are as follows: 1. Mary Did You Know by Pentatonix 2. All I Want For Christmas Is You by Mariah Carey 3. Rockin’ Around The Christmas Tree by Brenda Lee 4. The Christmas Song by Nat King Cole 5. Last Christmas by Wham 6. Christmas Eve (Sarajevo 12/24) by Trans-Siberian Orchestra 7. Santa Tell Me by Ariana Grande 8. Feliz Navidad by Jose Feliciano 9. White Christmas by Bing Crosby 10. It’s The Most Wonderful Time of The Year by Andy Williams 11. Jingle Bell Rock by Bobby Helms 12. Rudolph The Red-Nosed Reindeer by Gene Autry 13. Do You Want To Build A Snowman? by Kristen Bell, Agatha Lee Monn & Katie Lopez 14.
