Beyond The Season

Garth Brooks Beyond The Season Lyrics
1.Go Tell It On The Mountain

Go tell it on the mountain
Over the hills and far away
Go tell it on the mountain
That Jesus Christ is born

The shepherds all were watching
Over their sheep at night
When a guiding star shone from heaven
And the followed that holy light

Got tell it on the mountain
Over the hills and everywhere
Go tell it on the mountain
That Jesus Christ is born
They found a lovely manger
Where the humble Christ was born
And God sent out salvation
On that blessed Christmas morn

Go tell it on the mountain
Over the hills and everywhere
Go tell it on the mountain
That Jesus Christ is born

He brought with Him forgiveness
He live to show us the way
He came to redeem all creation
And to wash all our sins away

Go tell it on the mountain
Over the hills and everywhere
Go tell it on the mountain
That Jesus Christ is born


2.God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen

God rest ye merry gentlemen
Let nothing you dismay
Remember Christ our savior
Was born on Christmas day
To save us all from Satan power
When we were gone astray
Oh tidings of comfort and joy

From God our heavenly father
The blessed angel came
And unto certain shepherds
Brought tidings of the same
How that in Bethlehem was born
The Son of God by name
Oh tidings of comfort and joy
Oh tidings of comfort and joy

Fear not said the angel
Let nothing you affright
This day is born a savior
Of the pure virgin bright
To free all those who trust in him
From Satan power and might
Oh tidings of comfort and joy

And when they came to Bethlehem
Where our dear savior lay
They found him in the manger
Where oxen feed on hay
His mother Mary kneeled down
And to the Lord did pray
Oh tidings of comfort and joy
Oh tidings of comfort and joy

God rest ye merry gentlemen
Let nothing you dismay
Remember Christ our savior
Was born on Christmas day


3.The Old Man's Back In Town

(Begins With Chorus)

Hey, the old mans back in town,
He's spreadin' cheer around
He's come a long, long way
With his reindeer and his sleigh
He's bringin' lots of toys
For all good girls and boys
So spread the news around,
Yeah the old man's back in town

He's been waitin' all year long
Just to bring his gifts to you
All the elves and Mrs. Claus
Have been waitin' all year for too
Now they're hookin' up his reindeer
And they're loadin' down his sleigh
So take my advice, you best be nice
'Cause the old man's on his way

(Repeat Chorus)

Now the mistletoe is hung
And the tree is all aglow
The carolers have sung
Every Christmas song they know
And the kids are all in bed now
With santa on their mind
So the scene is set and you can bet
He'll show up any time

(Repeat Chorus)
(tag)
Everybody gather 'round
'Cause the old man's back in town


4.The Gift

A poor orphan named Maria
Was walking to market one day
She stopped for a rest by the roadside
Where a bird with a broken wing lay
A few moments passed till she saw it
For it's feathers were covered in sand
But soon clean and wrapped, it was traveling
In the warmth of Maria's small hand

She happily gave her last peso
On a cage made of brush and twine
She fed it loose corn from the market
And watched it grow stronger with time

Now the Christmas Eve service was coming
And the church shone with tinsel and light
And all of the townfolks brought presents
To lay by the manger that night
There were diamonds and incense and perfumes
In packages fit for a king
But for one ragged bird in a small cage
Maria had nothing to bring

She waited till just before midnight
So no one would see her go in
And crying she knelt by the manger
For her gift was unworthy of Him

Then a voice spoke to her through the darkness
Maria, what brings you to me
If the bird in the cage is your offering
Open the door and let me see
Though she trembled, she did as He asked her
And out of the cage the bird flew
Soaring up inot the rafters
On a wing that had healed good as new

Just then the midnight bells rang out
And the little bird started to sing
A song that no words could recapture
Whose beauty was fit for a king

Now Maria felt blessed just to listen
To that cascade of notes sweet and long
As her offering was lifted to heaven
By the very nightingale's song


5.Unto You This Night

On a night so long ago by the light of one bright star
Two weary travelers far from Galilee took refuge in a stable
Where a little child was born
To bring the gift of love to you and me
When the angels told the sheperds of His birth
There came a great rejoicing on earth

(Chorus)

And they sang glory to God in the highest
Dawning that first Christmas morn
Peace on earth and tidings of great joy
For unto you this night a child is born

And lo, there many years since then
That ancient star still guides us
And now again our Christmas voices ring
Blessed we are and safe at home
With loved one here beside us
And in the still and silent night we sing
How the angels told the shepards of His birth
And there came a great rejoicing on the earth

(Repeat Chorus Twice)


6.White Christmas

Lyrics:Irving Berlin
Music:Irving Berlin

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

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


7.The Friendly Beasts

Jesus our brother kind and good
Was humbly born in a stable of wood
And the friendly beasts around him stood
Jesus our brother kind and good

'I' said the donkey shaggy and brown
I carried His mother up hill and down
I carried her safely to Bethelem town
'I' said the donkey shaggy and brown

And 'I' said the cow all white and red
I gave Him my manger for a bed
I gave Him my hay for to pillow His head
'I' said the cow all white and red

'I' said the sheep with a curly horn
I gave Him my wool for Him blanket warm
And He wore my coat on that Christmas morn
'I' said the sheep with a curly horn

'I' said the dove from the rafters high
Cooed Him to sleep that He should not cry
We cooed Him to sleep my love and I
'I' said the dove from the rafters high

And 'I' said the camel all yellow and black
Over the deserts upon my back
I brought him a gift in the wise man's pack
And 'I' said the camel all yellow and black

Thus every beast remembering it well
In the stable dark was so proud to tell
Of the gifts that they gave Emmanuel
The gifts that they gave Emmanuel


8.Santa Looked A Lot Like Daddy

(Begins With Chorus)

Well, Santa looked a lot like daddy
Or daddy looked a lot like him
It's not the way I had him pictured
Santa is much to thin
He didn't come down the chimney
So mama must of let him in
Santa looked a lot like daddy
Or daddy looked a lot like him

Well, they thought I was fast a-sleepin'
They thought I was tucked in bed
They never figured I'd come a-peepin'
Or that I'd hear what was said
Santa put his arms around mama
And mama put her arms around him
So if Santa Clause ain't daddy
Well, then I'm a gonna tell on them

(Repeat Chorus)

I never saw Dancer or Prancer
I never heard the sleigh bells ring
I never saw a red-nosed reindeer
Like they show on the TV screen
But he sure brought lots of presents
So Santa Clause he must have been
Well he sure looked a lot like daddy
Or daddy looked a lot like him

(Repeat Chorus)


9.Silent Night

Lyrics:Joseph Mohr/Franz Gruber
Music:Joseph Mohr/Franz Gruber

Silent night
Holy night
All is calm
All is bright
Round yon virgin
Mother and Child
Holy infant
So tender and mild
Sleep in heavenly peace
Sleep in heavenly peace

Silent night
Holy night
Shepherds quake
At the sight
Glory streams
From heaven afar
Heavenly hosts
Sing alleluia
Christ the Savior is born
Christ the Savior is born


10.Mary's Dream

(Instrumental)
Perform


11.What Child Is This

What child is this who laid to rest
On Mary's lap is sleeping
Whom angels greet with anthems sweet
While shepards watch are keeping

(Chorus)

This this is Christ the King
Whom shepards gaurd and angels sing
Haste haste to bring Him laud
The babe the son of Mary

Why lies He in such mean estate
Where ox and cattle are feeding
Good christian fear for sinner here
The silent world is pleading

(Repeat Chorus)

So bring Him incense gold and myrrh
Come peasant king to own Him
The King of Kings salvation brings
Let loving hearts enthrone Him

(Repeat Chorus)
