**Kellie:** Let's go.

T’was the night before Christmas

Waiting for Saint Nicholas

On the night before Christmas

Christmas Eve (Christmas Eve).

(Cheering)

T’was the night before Christmas

And all through the house

Not a creature was stirring

Not even a mouse.

The stocking were hung

By the window with care

In the hope that Saint Nicholas

Soon would be there.

And the children were nestled

All snug in their beds

While visions of sugar plums

Danced in their heads.

T’was the night before Christmas

Waiting for Saint Nicholas

On the night before Christmas

Christmas Eve (Christmas Eve).

As I drew in my head

And was turning around

Down the chimney Saint Nicholas

Came with a bound.

He had a broad face

And a little round belly

That shook when he laughed

Like a bowl full of jelly.

He spoke not a word

But went straight to his work

And filled all the stockings

Then turned with a jerk.

And I heard him exclaim

As he drove out of sight:

"Merry Christmas to all

And to all a good night!"

T’was the night before Christmas

Waiting for Saint Nicholas

On the night before Christmas

Christmas Eve.

T’was the night before Christmas

Waiting for Saint Nicholas

On the night before Christmas

Christmas Eve

Christmas Eve!

Whoo!

(Cheering and applause)

**Charli:** Merry Christmas!

**Kathleen:**

**Tim:** Hello, Merry Christmas to you.

**Kellie:**

**Audience:** Yeah!

**Kathleen:** Cool.

**Kellie:** Me, too.

**Kathleen:**

**Audience:** No!

Jingle bells, jingle bells

Jingle bells, jingle bells

Jingle all the way

Oh what fun it is to ride in a one horse open sleigh

Hey!

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 (Dashing through the snow)

In a one horse open sleigh (One horse open sleigh)

All the fields we go (Fields we go)

Laughing all the way!

Jingle bells, jingle bells

Jingle all the way

Oh what fun it is to ride in a one horse open sleigh

Hey!

Jingle bells, jingle bells

Jingle all the way

Oh what fun it is to ride in a one horse open sleigh.

Bells on bob tail ring (Bells on bob tail ring)

Making spirits bright (Making spirits bright)

What fun is to ride and sing

A Christmas song tonight!

Jingle bells, jingle bells

Jingle all the way

Oh what fun it is to ride in a one horse open sleigh

Hey!

Jingle bells, jingle bells

Jingle all the way

Oh what fun it is to ride

In a one horse open sleigh!

(Cheering and applause)

That time of year is here at last

Let the count begin

Time to get our Christmas tree

To welcome Santa in.

'Cause there's

Five days till Christmas

Five days till Christmas

Five days till Christmas day

Five days and we're on our way! (Hey!)

We'll get out our decorations

And hang them on the tree

Tinsel lights and streamers

For everyone to see.

'Cause there's

Four days till Christmas

Four days till Christmas

Four days till Christmas day

Four days and we're on our way! (Hey!)

Don't forget the letter

That's addressed to Santa Claus

A very special list

I'd better post it now because

Well, there's

Three days till Christmas

Three days till Christmas

Three days till Christmas day

Three days and we're on our way! (Whoo!)

Time for wrapping presents

With brightly coloured bows

Sprinkle them with glitter

And under the tree they go.

'Cause there's

Two days till Christmas

Two days till Christmas

Two days till Christmas day

Two days and we're on our way! (Whoo!)

When you go to sleep

Try not to peep at Santa Claus

Leave a carrot for the reindeer

Next to your front door.

'Cause there's

One day till Christmas

One day till Christmas

One day till Christmas day

One sleep and he's here, hooray!

(Cheering and applause)

Long time ago in Bethlehem

So the Holy Bible say

Mary's boy child Jesus Christ

Was born on Christmas day.

Hark, now hear the angels sing:

"A new king's born today

And man will live for evermore

Because of Christmas day."

Do do do do do

Do do do do do

Do do do do do

Ooh...

While shepherds watched their flocks by night

They saw a bright new shining star

And heard a choir from heaven sing

The music came from afar.

Hark, now hear the angels sing:

"A new king's born today

And man will live for evermore

Because of Christmas day."

Do do do do do

Do do do do do.

Now Joseph and his wife, Mary

Came to Bethlehem that night

They found no place to bear her child

Not a single room was in sight.

By and by they found a little nook

In a stable all forlorn

And in a manger cold and dark

Mary's little boy child was born.

Trumpets sound and angels sing

Listen to what they say

That man will live for evermore

Because of Christmas day.

That man will live for evermore

Because of Christmas day.

**Charli:** Whoo!

(Cheering and applause)

**Audience:** No.

**Tim:** Well, have your mums and dads seen him?

**Audience:** No.

**Charli:** Well, if you see him, let us know where he is, OK.

**Santa:** Ho, ho, ho!

**Nathan:**

**Santa:** Ho, ho, ho!

**Tim:**

**Audience:** Yes.

**Charli:**

**Santa:** Ho, ho, ho!

**Charli:** Where?

**Tim:** Humphrey, where's Humphrey?

**Kathleen:** And here it is Santa, Merry Christmas.

We're all wishing for a warm warm Christmas

Rudolph the red nosed reindeer (Reindeer)

Had a very shiny nose (Like a lollipop)

And if you ever saw it (Saw it)

You would even say it glows (Like a lightbulb)

All of the other reindeer (Reindeer)

Used to laugh and call him names (Like Pinocchio)

They never let poor Rudolph (Rudolph)

Join in any reindeer games (Like Monopoly).

Then one foggy Christmas eve,

Santa came to say: "Ho, ho, ho!

Rudolph, with your nose so bright,

Won't you guide my sleigh tonight?"

Then how the reindeer loved him (Loved him)

As they shouted out with glee (Yippee!)

Rudolph the red nosed reindeer

You'll go down in history!
