See the sunlight through the pine
Taste the warm of winter wine
Dream of softly falling snow
Winter snow aspenglow

As the winter days unfold
Hearts grow warmer with the cold
Peace of mind is all you know
Winter snow aspenglow

Aspen is a life to live
See how much there is to give
See how strongly you believe
See how much you may receive

Smiling faces all around
Laughter is the only sound
Memories that can't grow old
Winter snow aspenglow

Aspen is a life to live
See how much there is to give
See how strongly you believe
See how much you may receive

See the sunlight through the pine
Taste the warm of winter wine
Dream of softly falling snow
Winter snow aspenglow


2.Away In The Manger


3.A Baby Just Like You

the season is upon us now
A time for gifts and giving
And as the year draws to its close
I think about my living

The christmastime when i was young
The magic and the wonder
But colors dull and candles dim
And dark my standing under

Oh little angel, shining light
You've set my soul to dreaming
You've given back my joy in life
You' ve filled me with new meaning

A savior king was born that day
A baby just like you
And as the magi came with gifts
I've come with my gift too

That peace on earth fills up your time
That brotherhood surrounds you
That you may know the warmth of love
And wrap it all around you

It's just a wish, a dream i'm told
From days when i was young
Merry christmas little zachary
Merry christmas ev'ryone


4.Christmas For Cowboys

tall in the saddle, we spend christmas day, driving the cattle
on the snow
Covered-plains.
All of the good gifts given today, ours is the sky and the wide
open range.
Back in the city they have different ways, football and eggnog
and christmas
Parades.
I'll take the blanket, i'll take the reins, christmas for
cowboys and wide-open
Plains.

A campfire for warmth as we stop for the night, the stars
overhead are
Christmas tree lights.
The wind sings a hymn as we bow down to pray, christmas for
cowboys and
Wide-open plains.

Tall in the saddle we spend christmas day, driving the cattle on
the
Snow-covered plains.
So many gifts have been opened today, ours is the sky and the
wide open range.
It's christmas for cowboys and wide open plains.


5.Coventry Carol

lullay, thou little tiny child,
By-bye lully, lullay.
Lullay, thou little tiny child,
By-bye lully, lullay.

O sisters too, how may we do
For to preserve this day,
This poor youngling for whom we sing
By-bye lully, lullay.

Herod the king, in his raging,
Charged he hath this day;
His men of might, in his own sight,
All children young, to slay.

Then woe is me, poor child, for thee,
And ever mourn and say;
For thy parting nor say nor sing,
By-bye lully, lullay.

I caught a ride on the dreamland express last night
I was sailing on an ocean of blue
And right there by my side, much to my surprise, was you

I said, come on over baby, let me look in your eyes
Let me see the very heart of you
And i couldn't believe it, or conceive that my dream would come
true

Cause you said, hey there sweet daddy, everything is alright
You know for miles there's not a telephone line
There's not a soul to disturb us
Just come and be mine

You said, let me be the end of your rainbow
Let me be the stars up above
Let me be the one that you dream of baby
Let me be the one that you love, oh, oh
Let me be the one that you love

But now it's four in the mornin', i can't sleep
I can't get you out of my mind
I keep tossin' and turnin', i'm yearnin' for the sun to shine

I'd like to send you a ticket on the dreamland express
And take you far away with me
I've got a vision of heaven, you livin' there with me

Let me be the end of your rainbow
Let me be the stars up above
Let me be the one that you dream of baby
Let me be the one that you love, oh, oh
Let me be the one that you love

Llet me be the end of your rainbow
Let me be the stars up above
Let me be the one that you dream of baby
Let me be the one that you love, oh, oh
Let me be the one that you love

8.Oh Holy Night

In album:rocky mountain christmas and christmas like a lullabye

Oh holy night
The stars are brightly shining
It is the night of the dear savior's birth
Long lay the world in sin and error pining
'til he appeared and the soul felt
Its worth
A thrill of hope, the weary world rejoices
For yonder breaks a new and
Glorious morn.
Fall on your knees, oh hear the
Angel voices.
Oh night divine, oh night when christ was born
Oh night divine, oh night
Oh holy night
Fall on your knees, oh hear the
Angel voices
Oh night divine, oh night when christ was born
Oh night divine, oh night
Oh holy night


9.Perhaps Love

Words:john denver
music:john denver

perhaps love is like a resting place
A shelter from the storm
It exists to give you comfort
It is there to keep you warm
And in those times of trouble
When you are most alone
The memory of love will bring you home

Perhaps love is like a window
Perhaps an open door
It invites you to come closer ( you wrote close)
It wants to show you more
And even if you lose yourself
And don't know what to do
The memory of love will see you through

Oh, love to some is like a cloud
To some as strong as steel
For some a way of living
For some a way to feel
And some say love is holding on
And some say letting go
And some say love is everything
And some say they don't know

Perhaps love is like the ocean
Full of conflict, full of pain (you wrote - change)
Like a fire when it's cold outside
Or thunder when it rains
If i should live forever
And all my dreams come true
My memories of love will be of you

Please daddy, don't get drunk this christmas
I don't wanna see my mumma cry

Just last year when i was only seven
And now i'm almost eight as you can see
You came home at a quarter past eleven
Fell down underneath our christmas tree

Please daddy, don't get drunk this christmas
I don't wanna see my mumma cry
Please daddy, don't get drunk this christmas
I don't wanna see my mumma cry

Mumma smiled and looked outside the window
She told me son, you better go upstairs
Then you laughed and hollered merry christmas
I turned around and saw my mumma's tears

Please daddy, don't get drunk this christmas
I don't wanna see my mumma cry
Please daddy, don't get drunk this christmas
I don't wanna see my mumma cry
No, i don't wanna see my mumma cry


11.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
They used to laugh and call him names
They never 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 all the reindeer loved him
As they shouted out with glee
Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer
You'll go down in history
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

All through the year
We've waited
Waited through spring and fall
To hear silver bells ringing
See winter time bringing
The happies season of all

Chestnuts roasting on a open fire
Jackfrost nippin' at your nose
Yuletide carols being sung by a choir
And folks dressed up like eskimos

Everybody knows a turkey, and some mistleoe
Will help o make he season bright
Tiny tots with their eyes all aglow
Will find it hard to sleep tonight

They know that santa's on his way
He's loaded lots of toys and goodies on his sleigh
And every mother's child is going to spy
To see if reindeer really know how to fly

And so i'm offering this simple phrase
To kids from one to ninety-two
Although it's been said, many times
Many ways
Merry christmas, to you

They know that santa's on his way
He's loaded lots of toys and goodies on his sleigh
And every mother's child is going to spy
To see if reindeer really know how to fly

And so i'm offering this simple phrase
To kids from one to ninety-two
Although it's been said, many times
Many ways
Merry christmas, to you
