Jingle Bells Dashing Through the Snow, in A Jingle Bells And the thing that will make them ring is Dashing through the snow, the carol that you sing In a one horse open sleigh. Right within your heart. O’er the fields we go; Laughing all the way. I Want a Hippopotamus for Christmas Bells on bobtails ring, I want a hippopotamus for Christmas Making spirits bright Only a hippopotamus will do What fun it is to ride and sing Don't want a doll, no dinky tinker toy A sleighing song to night-Oh I want a hippopotamus to play with and enjoy Jingle bells, Jingle bells, Jingle all the way I want a hippopotamus for Christmas Oh what fun it is to ride, I don't think Santa Claus will mind, do you? In a one horse open sleigh x2 He won't have to use a dirty chimney flue Just bring him through the front door It’s Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas That's the easy thing to do It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas Ev'rywhere you go; I can see me now on Christmas morning Take a look in the five-and-ten, glistening Creeping down the stairs once again Oh what joy, what surprise With candy canes and silver lanes aglow. When I open up my eyes It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas, To see a hippo hero standing there Toys in ev'ry store, But the prettiest sight to see is the holly I want a hippopotamus for Christmas that will be Only a hippopotamus will do On your own front door. No crocodiles, no rhinosauruses I only likes hippopotamuses *A pair of hop-along boots and a pistol that And hippopotamuses like me, too shoots Is the wish of Barney and Ben; Mom says a hippo, would eat me up but then Dolls that will talk and will go for a walk Teacher says a hippo is a vegetarian Is the hope of Janice and Jen; And Mom and Dad can hardly wait for There's lots of room for him in our two-car school to start again. garage I'd feed him there and wash him there and It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas give him his massage Ev'rywhere you go; There's a tree in the Grand Hotel, one in I can see me now on Christmas morning the park as well, Creeping down the stairs The sturdy kind that doesn't mind the Oh what joy, what surprise snow. When I open up my eyes To see a hippo hero standing there *It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas; I want a hippopotamus for Christmas Soon the bells will start, Only a hippopotamus will do No crocodiles, or rhinosauruseses I only like hippopotamuseses You know Dasher and Dancer and Prancer And hippopotamuses like me, too and Vixen, Comet and Cupid and Donner and Blitzen, But do you recall the most famous reindeer of all ? When Christmas Comes to Town Rudolph the red nosed reindeer I'm wishing on a star Had a very shiny nose. And trying to believe And if you ever saw it, That even though it's far You would even say it glows. He'll find me Christmas Eve All of the other reindeer I guess that Santa's busy Used to laugh and call him names, Cause he's never come around They never let poor Rudolph I think of him Join in any reindeer games When Christmas Comes to Town The best time of the year Then one foggy Christmas Eve, When everyone comes home Santa came to say, With all this Christmas cheer “Rudolph, with your nose so bright, It's hard to be alone Won’t you guide my sleigh to night.” Putting up the Christmas tree Then how the reindeer loved him With friends who come around As they shouted out with glee, It's so much fun “Rudolph the red nosed reindeer, When Christmas Comes to Town You’ll go down in history.” Presents for the children Wrapped in red and green Shoulda Been a North Pole Elf All the things I've heard about Lately I’ve been spending time But never really seen Thinkin’ about myself No one will be sleeping on And I have slowly come to realise The night of Christmas Eve That I should-a been a North Pole elf. Hoping Santa's on his way Baking cookies, trimming trees, [Repeat previous two paragraphs] And all the other Christmas stuff, Like hanging mistletoe and candy canes, When Santa's sleigh bells ring Oh, I just can’t get enough. I listen all around The herald angels sing That is why I’m hoping I never hear a sound Soon a job will open When all the dreams of children To work with Santa Claus himself. Once lost will all be found There’s no way to deny it, That's all I want Really want to try it. When Christmas Comes to Town I should-a been a North Pole elf. That's all I want When Christmas Comes to Town With a hammer and a nail, I’m something of a whizz. Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer And when it comes to wrapping packages, I’m the very best that there is. 1 Little town of Bethlehem, Tonight while you’re asleep I’d be good at making toys The skies above and all creation And stringing Christmas lights Wait expectantly. And please forgive me if I start to brag, But I’d prob’bly look good in tights. CHORUS O holy night, That is why I’m hoping Stars have come out Soon a job will open Over Bethlehem. To work with Santa Claus himself. God will come to you There’s no way to deny it, With the fullness of heaven. Really want to try it. I should-a been a North Pole elf. All 2 Little town of Bethlehem, Lately I’ve been spending time No eye has ever seen, Thinkin’ about myself No ear has heard nor heart imagined And I have slowly come to realise All that you’ll receive. I should-a been a North Pole elf. CHORUS I should-a, would-a, could-a been a North 3 Little town of Bethlehem Pole elf. Where earth and heaven meet, From you will come the One and Only, Away in a Manger Every eye will see. 1.Away in a manger no crib for a bed, The little Lord Jesus laid down his sweet CHORUS head. O holy night, The stars in the bright sky looked down O holy night, where he lay, Solo The little Lord Jesus asleep in the hay. God will come to you With the fullness of heaven. 2.The cattle are lowing, the baby awakes, But little Lord Jesus no crying he makes. Rockin’ around the Christmas tree I love thee, Lord Jesus! Look down from Rockin’ around the Christmas tree the sky, At the Christmas party hop And stay by my side until morning is nigh. Mistletoe hung where you can see 3.Be near me Lord Jesus, I ask thee to Every couple tries to stop. stay, Close by me forever, and love me I pray. Rockin’ around the Christmas tree Bless all the dear children in thy tender Let the Christmas spirit ring care, Later we’ll have some pumpkin pie And fit us for heaven to live with thee And we’ll do some caroling. there. You will get a sentimental feeling when you O HOLY NIGHT hear Voices singing “Let’s be jolly, Solo Deck the halls with boughs of holly”. So here's to the birthday boy who saved Rockin’ around the Christmas tree our lives Have a happy holiday It's something we all try to ignore Everyone dancing merrily And put a wreath up on your door in the new old fashioned way. So here's something you should know that (Repeat all verses) is for sure Christmas must be something more Silent Night What if angels did not pay attention to Silent night, Holy Night! All the things that we wished they would Sleeps the world; hid from sight, always do Mary and Joseph in stable bare What if happiness came in a cardboard box Watch o’er the child beloved and fair, Then I think there is something we all Sleeping in heavenly rest, forgot Sleeping in heavenly rest, What would happen if presents all went away Silent night, Holy Night! Tell me what would you find Shepherds first saw the light, Heard resounding clear and long, You'd see that today holds something Far and near, the angel-song, special “Christ the redeemer is here!” Something holy, not superficial “Christ the redeemer is here!” So here's to the birthday boy who saved our lives Silent night, Holy Night! It's something we all try to ignore Son of God, O how bright And put a wreath up on your door Love is smiling from thy face! So here's something you should know that Strikes for us now the hour of grace, is for sure Saviour since thou art born! Christmas must be something more Saviour since thou art born! We get so caught up in all of it Business and relationships Hundred mile an hour lives Christmas must be something more And it's this time of year And everybody's here What if ribbons and bows didn't mean a It seems the last thing on your mind thing Would the song still survive without five Is that the day holds something special golden rings Something holy, not superficial Would you still wanna kiss without So here's to Jesus Christ who saved our mistletoe lives What would happen if God never let it snow It's something we all try to ignore What would happen if Christmas carols told And put a wreath up on your door a lie But here's something you should know that Tell me what would you find is for sure You'd see that today holds something Christmas must be something special Christmas must be something Something holy, not superficial Christmas must be something more His mother Mary watched - As he slept There's gotta be more there in the hay There's gotta be more Then she gently kissed her precious child Have yourself a merry little Christmas On the first Christmas day Have yourself a merry little Christmas Let your heart be light The wonder of it all - The miracle she held From now on Our troubles will be out of sight The King of heaven in her arms On that first Christmas day Have yourself a merry little Christmas Make the yuletide gay From now on The shepherds knelt to Him - And the wise Our troubles will be miles away men brought their gifts Here we are as in olden days For the child who came to show the world Happy golden days of yore God’s love Faithful friends who are dear to us A new star in the sky - Shining down to Gather near to us, once more guide the way Through the years We all will be together To see the Saviour born for us If the fates allow Hang a shining star On that first Christmas day.

Originally recorded and released by Helms in a rockabilly style, "Jingle Bell Rock" has itself since become a Christmas standard. He abandoned his two children in Boston to move to Savannah, Georgia, where he fathered several more children with a second wife. Nick" called "Jingle Bells Laughing All the Way " features someone laughing, rather than singing, the entire song. Now the song is an absolute classic of popular music and would have made him a multi-millionaire. His 50s version was arranged by Gordon Jenkins, with a brilliant orchestra conducted by Nelson Riddle.

I think I can assume that whatever Notes you had planned for this year — vacations, more intentional time with family, attending church more — went completely out the _______________________________ window nine months ago when everything came to a complete stop. But then, if everything came to a stop, why do we still feel _______________________________ like our lives are crazier than ever? Between virtual school, Zoom Bible studies and book groups, and everything in between, we are _______________________________ still finding ways to fill our days. _______________________________ With that in mind, our Advent theme this year is “Let There Be…” Throughout this season of waiting, we encourage you to take a _______________________________ moment each day, to pause, to breathe, and to be. The devotion begins with the first Sunday of Advent and continues until Epipha- _______________________________ ny, when the Magi visited the Holy Family. This is a reminder that the Christmas season is more than just one day; every day we are _______________________________ called to live as people of the Light. _______________________________ We are so blessed to have a congregation willing to do the hard work of Bible study to contribute to this year’s devotion. We have _______________________________ paired the congregant-written devotions with poetry, art, and re- flections by the artists at A Sanctified Art, a team of women who _______________________________ create multimedia resources for worshipping communities.

  • Christmas Is a Celebration Pastor Joe Oakley GFC – 12-23-18
    1 Christmas is a Celebration Pastor Joe Oakley GFC – 12-23-18 What is the biggest celebration in the world? Some people think it’s Mardi Gras in New Orleans or the Carnival in Rio. Some think of New Year’s Eve at Times Square. But none of those even come close. The biggest celebration in the world is Christmas. How do I know that? First of all, Christmas is celebrated all over the world – not just in one place. And, not only is Christmas celebrated all over the world, it is celebrated for a whole month – not just for one day. During the Christmas season billions of people shut down work, go to church services, have parties, decorate their home, send out cards, buy gifts, sing Christmas songs and travel long distances to gather with family and friends to celebrate Christmas. When Christmas comes, you can’t miss it. It’s celebrated everywhere. That’s why I’m preaching today on Christmas is a Celebration. What makes Christmas so special? After all, it’s celebrating an event that happened two thousand years ago, in the Middle East, in a little town, with no fanfare. But today, two thousand years later, it can still stop traffic. How is that? What’s so special about Christmas? The fact is the birth of Jesus Christ is the most significant event in the history of mankind. In fact, history is measured by this event. History is divided into B.C. – Before Christ - and A.D. – which stands for Anno Domini – in the year of the Lord.

  • Scripture Reading and Meditation by Pastor Schwartz
    The Carols of Christmas A Children’s Christmas Service by Jeffrey L. Schallert & Jaimie Roland Good Shepherd Lutheran Church, School, and Preschool 525 63 rd Street – Downers Grove, IL 60516 Telephone - 630-852-1519; Website - www.gsdg.org December 24 th , 2013 David N. Rutschow & Matthew E. Schwartz, Pastors Welcome! For centuries God’s people have joined the angels in singing “Glory to God in the Highest” at Christmastime. But the angels were not the only ones who sang for joy at the birth of Jesus. Many believers spoke and wrote songs of praise in response to the good news they were told. These saints of God joined the angels of heaven in proclaiming the birth of the Savior of the world. We’re glad that you’ve joined us this evening to celebrate the birth of our Savior along with us! Please take a moment to fill out the Friendship Register located in your pew. Pre-Service Music Prior to the start of the service, the congregation is invited to join in singing the following hymns of praise to our newborn king. Gentle Mary Laid Her Child ( Hymn 56 ) Gentle Mary laid her child Lowly in a manger; There he lay, the undefiled, To the world a stranger. Such a babe in such a place -- Can he be the Savior? Ask the saved of all the race Who have found his favor. Angels sang about his birth; Wise men sought and found him. Heaven's star shone brightly forth, Glory all around them. Shepherds saw the wondrous sight, Heard the angels singing.
