OLD MAN WINTER
It looks like snow, it falls like snow, so cold and frosty white.
It’s blowing and drifting up mountains of fun
And the wind has a “North Pole” bite!
Look what Old Man Winter has done.
Bundle up, let’s run out and see.
Look what Old Man Winter has done.
It’s a wonderland for you and me.
Let’s go sledding down the highest hill
Build a fort as tall as the sky.
Be careful not to fall like “Jack and Jill”
When the snowballs are flying high!
Look what Old Man Winter has done.
Bundle up, let’s run out and see.
Look what Old Man Winter has done.
It’s a wonderland for you and me.
Look what Old Man Winter has done.
Bundle up, let’s run out and see.
Look what Old Man Winter has done.
It’s a wonderland for you and me.

SHOOTING STAR
Star shining bright in the middle of the night,
Oh, star in the midnight sky,
Star shining bright in the middle of the night,
How did you learn to fly? How did you learn to fly?
Star shining bright in the middle of the night,
Oh, star with a tail of white,
Star shining bright in the middle of the night,
Grant me a wish tonight. Grant me a wish tonight.
Shooting star (Shooting star)
Now that you’re in my view,
Shooting star, (Shooting star)
Make my wish come true.
Star shining bright in the middle of the night,
Oh, star in the sky so vast,
Star shining bright in the middle of the night,
Don’t disappear too fast. Don’t disappear too fast.
Shooting star, (Shooting star)
Why must you fade away?
Shooting star, (Shooting star)
Don’t you want to stay?
Star shining bright in the middle of the night,
I’ll see you again someday.
SI ME DAN PASTELES
Si me dan pasteles
Dénmelos calientes.
Que pasteles fríos
Empachan la gente.
Si me dan arroz
No me den cuchara.
Que mama mi dijo
Que se lo llevara.
Le, lo, lai, Le, lo, lai,
Le, lo, lai, Le, lo, lai.
Esta casa tiene
Las puertas de acero,
Y el que vive en ella
Es un caballero.
Dios guarde este casa
Y guarde la familia,
Y que los Santo Reyes
También la bendigan.
Le, lo, lai, Le, lo, lai,
Le, lo, lai, Le, lo, lai.
Traditional Puerto Rican folksong
CHRISTMAS LIGHTS
Christmas Eve. Looking out the window,
I can see snow is falling softly.
Through the pane, sparkling in the distance,
I can see many colored lights.
Christmas lights. Beautiful.
They’re shining in the night.
They make me want to sing.
Those Christmas lights. Glorious.
They’re visible for miles.
They’re piercing through the darkness.
Christmas lights.
Christmas Eve. Driving through our hometown,
I can see houses decorated.
Twinkling lights. Scenes of wonder lit up for us to see.
Bring that feeling home.
Christmas lights. Beautiful.
They’re shining in the night.
They make me want to sing.
Those Christmas lights. Glorious.
They’re visible for miles.
They’re piercing through the darkness.
Christmas lights.
Christmas lights.
Those Christmas lights.
Those Christmas lights.

ALWAYS BELIEVE
Always believe
In what your heart is telling you.
Always believe,
Let it guide you in all that you do.
And in this season, there’s a wonderful reason
To share ourselves and all that we are.
Always believe
And believe the love that’s deep in your heart.
Did you know that there’s a single thread
That connects us all, one by one?
And this thread of love, of faith, of hope,
Creates a strong and beautiful bond!
Always believe
In what your heart is telling you.
Always believe,
Let it guide you in all that you do.
And in this season, there’s a wonderful reason
To share ourselves and all that we are.
Always believe
And believe the love that’s deep in your heart.
Believe the love that’s deep in your heart.

GROUP CAROLS
Verse 1:
Deck the hall 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.
Verse 2:
Jingle bells! Jingle bells! Jingle all the way!
Oh, what fun it is to ride in a one-horse open sleigh!
Jingle bells! Jingle bells! Jingle all the way!
Oh, what fun it is to ride in a one-horse open sleigh!
Verse 3:
Up on the housetop reindeer pause;
Out jumps good ol’ Santa Claus.
Down through the chimney with lots of toys,
All for the little ones, Christmas joys.
Ho, ho, ho! Who wouldn’t go?
Ho, ho, ho! Who wouldn’t go?
Up on the housetop, click, click, click,
Down through the chimney with good St. Nick!
