    It Came Upon A Midnight Clear.
    It came upon a midnight clear,
    That glorious song of old,
    From angels bending near the earth,
    To touch their harps of gold:
    “Peace on the earth, goodwill to men,
    From heaven’s all-gracious King.”
    The world in solemn stillness lay,
    To hear the angels sing.
    Still through the cloven skies they come,
    With peaceful wings unfurled,
    And still their heavenly music floats
    O’er all the weary world;
    Above its sad and lowly plains,
    They bend on hovering wing,
    And ever o’er its Babel sounds
    The blessèd angels sing.
    Yet with the woes of sin and strife
    The world has suffered long;
    Beneath the angel-strain have rolled
    Two thousand years of wrong;
    And man, at war with man, hears not
    The love-song which they bring;
    O hush the noise, ye men of strife,
    And hear the angels sing.
    And ye, beneath life’s crushing load,
    Whose forms are bending low,
    Who toil along the climbing way
    With painful steps and slow,
    Look now! for glad and golden hours
    come swiftly on the wing.
    O rest beside the weary road,
    And hear the angels sing!
    For lo!, the days are hastening on,
    By prophet bards foretold,
    When with the ever-circling years
    Comes round the age of gold
    When peace shall over all the earth
    Its ancient splendors fling,
    And the whole world give back the song
    Which now the angels sing.

    Up on the House Top.
    Up on the housetop
    Reindeer pause,
    Out jumps good old Santa Claus.
    Down thru’ 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 thru’ the chimney
    With good Saint Nick.
    First comes the stocking
    Of little Nell,
    Oh, dear Santa
    Fill it well;
    Give her a dolly
    That laughs and cries
    One that will open
    And shut her eyes.
    Ho, ho, ho!
    Who wouldn’t go!
    Ho, ho, ho!
    Who wouldn’t go!
    Up on the housetop,
    Click, click, click,
    Down thru’ the chimney
    With good Saint Nick.
    Next comes the stocking
    Of little Will,
    Oh just see
    What a glorious fill
    Here is a hammer
    And lots of tacks,
    Also a ball
    And a whip that cracks.
    Ho, ho, ho!
    Who wouldn’t go!
    Ho, ho, ho!
    Who wouldn’t go!
    Up on the housetop,
    Click, click, click,
    Down thru’ the chimney
    With good Saint Nick.

    bringing good cheer,
    to young and old,
    meek and the bold.
    Ding dong ding dong
    that is their song
    with joyful ring
    all caroling.
    One seems to hear
    words of good cheer
    from everywhere
    filling the air.
    Oh how they pound,
    raising the sound,
    o’er hill and dale,
    telling their tale.
    Gaily they ring
    while people sing
    songs of good cheer,
    Christmas is here.
    Merry, Merry, Merry, Merry Christmas,
    Merry, Merry, Merry, Merry Christmas.
    On on they send,
    on without end,
    their joyful tone
    to every home.
    Ding ding… dong!
    bEEN MISSING YOUR SINGING!!

    It is 1:45 am, and I just got the last guest sent home. Whew! I am going to sleep for a week. I am usually in bed by 10:00 at the latest! Good night nurse!

    Morning all! Dreamer! It's good to see you back with your carols! And the picture is awesome! You've been way too silent this year!
    Thanksgiving is over, leftovers are in the fridge. DH decided to go to Wallyworld for a new TV for the living room since the sale was so good. I didn't inform him it was a Black Friday sale he was getting into. Bad me! But he came home with the TV, so good for him! Now we've got a 32" flat screen in the living room to watch. Guess that's my Christmas present.
    Today's hint: Nine days to go til opening! You'll be opening in a different time zone than me.

    Dang! Cindy , yesterday you said it was 8 days till openong! Geez! Now I have to go count for myself.LOL! As far as the lemon merange pie....when I cut into it to serve it, the innards looked like cellulite before the first bite was taken. I will not use corn starch again in my pies! I drained it in the sink and then it was ok! Tasted really good though!

    OOOH! Sounds like fun! We can get away from our DH's for a little while & enjoy ourselves buzzing all the SS's! Of course, that's after we warm ourselves with some of the Schnapps down in the hole!

    Once again dreamer you have outdone yourself. Lovely singing and an outstandingly beautiful pic.

    Pat get those feet put up today and rest.

    Pass the schnapps please.

    Question about the "up on the housetop" song? Why does little Nell only get one toy while little Will gets four toys. Does that seem far??? Just saying

    It seems as if Canadian/US Customs is holding packages for a bit?
    Don't know.
    All of the packages except for a couple are in and out of Canada.

    Knitette...yours is on it's way, should be there hopefully this week. Packages going across the pond are going faster.
