The Dudley Special Schools present The Jubilee-Olympics-Proms Christmas Concert 2012

Winds through the Olive Trees

Winds through the olive trees Softly did blow Round little Bethlehem Long, long ago. Sheep on the hillside lay White as the snow Shepherds were watching them Long, long ago.

Then from the happy skies Angels bent low, Singing their songs of joy, Long, long ago. For in his manger bed Cradled we know, Christ came to Bethlehem, Long, long ago.

Jingle Bells

Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way, Oh what fun it is to ride In a one-horse open sleigh, O jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way, Oh what fun it is to ride In a one-horse open sleigh!

Dashing through the snow In a one-horse open sleigh O’er the fields we go Laughing all the way. Bells on bob-tail ring, Making spirits bright What fun it is to ride and sing A sleighing song tonight. (repeat chorus)

Rocking around the Christmas Tree

Rocking around the Christmas tree At the Christmas party hop Mistletoe hung where you can see Ev’ry couple tries to stop Rocking around the Christmas tree, Let the Christmas spirit ring Later we’ll have some pumpkin pie And we’ll do some caroling.

You will get a sentimental Feeling when you hear Voices singing let’s be jolly, Deck the halls with boughs of holly Rocking around the Christmas tree, Have a happy holiday Everyone dancing merrily In the new old-fashioned way.

Rudolph the Red-nosed Reindeer

Rudolph the Red-nosed Reindeer, had a very shiny nose And if you ever saw it, you would even say it glows. All of the other reindeer used to laugh and call him names They wouldn’t let poor Rudolph join in any reindeer games

Then one foggy Christmas Eve, Santa came to say “Rudolph with your nose so bright, Won’t you guide my sleigh tonight?” Then how the reindeer loved him As they shouted out with glee “Rudolph the Red-nosed Reindeer You’ll go down in history!”

Santa Claus is Coming to Town

You better watch out, You better not cry, Better not pout, I’m telling you why: Santa Claus is coming to town! He’s making a list and checking it twice, Gonna find out who’s naughty and nice. Santa Claus is coming to town!

He sees you when you’re sleeping, He knows when you’re awake. He knows if you’ve been bad or good, So be good for goodness sake! You better watch out, You better not cry, Better not pout, I’m telling you why: Santa Claus is coming to town!

Silent Night

Silent night! Holy night! All is calm, all is bright, Round the Virgin Mother and child, Holy infant, so tender and mild, Sleep in heavenly peace, Sleep in heavenly peace.

Silent night! Holy night! Guiding star; lend your light See the eastern wise men bring, Gifts and homage to our King Jesus Christ is here, Jesus Christ is here.

Silent night! Holy night! Wondrous star; lend your light; With the angels let us sing Hallelujahs to our King Jesus Christ is here, Jesus Christ is here.

Winter Wonderland

Sleigh bells ring are you listening? In the lane snow is glistering, A beautiful sight, we're happy tonight Walking in a winter wonderland Gone away is the blue bird, Hear to stay is a new bird, He sings a love song as we go along Walking in a winter wonderland.

In the meadow we can build a snowman, Then pretend that he is Parson Brown He'll say: Are you married? We'll say: No man, But you can do the job When you're in town.

Later on, we'll conspire, As we dream by the fire To face unafraid, The plans that we've made, Walking in a winter wonderland. In the meadow we can build a snowman, And pretend that he's a circus clown We'll have lots of fun with mister snowman, Until the other kids knock him down. When it snows, ain't it thrilling, Though your nose gets a chilling We'll frolic and play, the Eskimo way, Walking in a winter wonderland.

When it snows, ain't it thrilling, Though your nose gets a chilling We'll frolic and play, the Eskimo way, Walking in a winter wonderland.

I’m Dreaming of a White Christmas

I’m dreaming of a white Christmas Just like the ones I used to know Where the treetops glisten And children listen To hear sleigh bells in the snow.

I’m dreaming of a white Christmas With every Christmas card I write May your days be merry and bright And may all your Christmases be white.

Come and Join the Celebration

Come and join the celebration, It's a very special day Come and share our jubilation There's a new King born today See the shepherds hurry down to Bethlehem. Gaze in wonder At the Son of God who lays before them

Wise men journey led to worship by a star Kneel in homage Bringing precious gifts from lands afar so... Come and join the celebration, It's a very special day Come and share our jubilation There's a new King born today

God is with us Round the world the message bring He is with us "Welcome" all the bells on earth are pealing. Come and join the celebration, It's a very special day Come and share our jubilation There's a new King born today

Lullaby Carol

Little Jesus, sweetly sleep, do not stir; We will lend a coat of fur. We will rock you, rock you, rock you, We will rock you, rock you, rock you, See the fur to keep you warm Snugly 'round your tiny form.

Mary’s little baby, sleep, sweetly sleep, Sleep in comfort, slumber deep. We will rock you, rock you, rock you, We will rock you, rock you, rock you, We will serve you all we can, Darling, darling little man

Away in a Manger (Traditional version)

Away in a manger, no crib for a bed, The little Lord Jesus laid down His sweet head. The stars in the bright sky looked down where he lay The little Lord Jesus asleep on the hay.

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 side until morning is nigh.

Be near me, Lord Jesus; I ask Thee to stay Close by me for ever, And love me, I pray, Bless all the dear children in Thy tender care, And fit us for heaven to live with Thee there.

Janie Mama

Janie Mama, Janie Mama, Janie Mama. Ya tu suzika, I ya_____ turn - mina Ya tu yavana, Hey yavana, Turn - mina suzika.

Leaning on a Snowman

Santa’s on his way, and if my Dad will let me stay I’ll wait outside until his reindeer I can see But just in case he’s late, and my Mum gets in a state I’ve got a sandwich and a thermos full of tea

I’m leanin’ on a snow man on the corner of the street Til Santa and his reindeer make a show Ho Ho Ho, Ho Ho Ho, I hope that he can get through all the snow I don’t know if he’ll come this way, he doesn’t always come this way But anyway he’ll get here I know

Ho Ho Ho, Ho Ho Ho, I’m so excited that its going to be tomorrow He’ll come up through Dudley and turn right He doesn’t have to stop at the red light! He’ll reach my house around midnight There’s no shadow of a doubt, he’d never leave me out!

I’ve been absolutely wonderful and marvellous and dutiful, And anyone will certainly know, Why I’m leaning on a snow man on the corner of the street For Santa Claus to get here, Ho, Ho, Ho!

Hush Little Baby

Hush, little baby, don't say a word, Papa's going to buy you a mockingbird. If that mockingbird won't sing, Papa's going to buy you a diamond ring.

If that diamond ring turns brass, Papa's going to buy you a looking glass. If that looking glass gets broke, Papa's going to buy you a billy goat.

If that billy goat won't pull, Papa's going to buy you a cart and bull. If that cart and bull turn over, Papa's going to buy you a dog named Rover.

If that dog named Rover won't bark, Papa's going to buy you a horse and cart. If that horse and cart fall down, You'll still be the sweetest little baby in town.

Frosty the Snowman

Frosty the snowman was a jolly happy soul, With a corncob pipe and a button nose And two eyes made out of coal. Frosty the snowman is a fairy tale, they say, He was made of snow but the children Know how he came to life one day.

There must have been some magic in that Old silk hat they found. For when they placed it on his head He began to dance around. O, Frosty the snowman Was alive as he could be, And the children say he could laugh And play just the same as you and me.

Thumpetty thump thump, Thumpety thump thump, Look at Frosty go. Thumpetty thump thump, Thumpety thump thump, Over the hills of snow.

God Save the Queen

God save our gracious Queen Long live our noble Queen, God save the Queen. Send her victorious, Happy and glorious, Long to reign over us. God save the Queen

Rule, Britannia!

When Britain first, at heaven's command, Arose from out the azure main, This was the charter of the land, And Guardian Angels sang this strain: Rule, Britannia! Britannia, rule the waves! Britons never, never, never shall be slaves.

The nations not so blest as thee Must, in their turn, to tyrants fall, While thou shalt flourish great and free: The dread and envy of them all

Land of Hope and Glory

Land of Hope and Glory, mother of the free, How shall we extol thee, who are born of thee? Wider still, and wider, shall thy bounds be set; God, who made thee mighty, make thee mightier yet! God, who made thee mighty, make thee mightier yet!

I’ve got Peace

I’ve got peace like a river I’ve got peace like a river in my soul. I’ve got peace like a river I’ve got peace like a river in my soul. I’ve got love like an ocean in my soul. I’ve got joy like a fountain in my soul.

Old Time Medley

It's a long way to Tipperary It's a long way to go. It's a long way to Tipperary To the sweetest girl I know. Goodbye Piccadilly, Farewell Leicester Square, It's a long, long way to Tipperary, But my heart lies there.

Pack up your troubles in your old kit bag And smile, smile, smile. Don't let your joy and laughter hear the snag Smile boys, that's the style What's the use of worrying It never was worth while So, pack up your troubles in your old kit bag And smile, smile, smile.

You are my sunshine My only sunshine You make me happy When skies are grey You'll never know dear How much I love you Please don't take my sunshine away.

There'll always be an England, While there's a country lane. Wherever there's a cottage small Beside a field of grain There'll always be an England While there's a busy street. Wherever there's a turning wheel A million marching feet.

Red, white and blue What does it mean to you? Surely you're proud Shout it aloud Britons awake! The Empire too We can depend on you. Freedom remains These are the chains Nothing can break.

There'll always be an England And England shall be free If England means as much to you As England means to me.

When Santa got stuck up the chimney

When Santa got stuck up the chimney He began to shout ”You girls and boys won’t get any toys If you won’t pull me out. My beard is black There’s soot in my sack, My nose is tickling too!” When Santa got stuck up the chimney Atchoo, atchoo, atchoo!!
