Christmas Carols: Deck The Halls / Away In A Manger / I Saw Three Ships

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
Troll the ancient Yuletide carol
Fa la la la la, la la la la

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

(Away in a manger, no crib for His 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 in the hay)

The cattle are lowing, the poor Baby wakes
But little Lord Jesus, no crying He makes
I love thee, Lord Jesus, look down from the sky
And stay by the cradle till morning is nigh

I saw three ships come sailing in
On Christmas day, on Christmas day
I saw three ships come sailing in
On Christmas day, in the morning

Pray whither sailed those ships all three?
On Christmas day, on Christmas day
Pray whither sailed those ships all three?
On Christmas day, in the morning

Oh, they sailed into Bethlehem
On Christmas day, on Christmas day
Oh, they sailed into Bethlehem
On Christmas day, in the morning

And all the bells on earth shall ring
On Christmas day, on Christmas day
And all the bells on earth shall ring
On Christmas day, in the morning
